From draft to published book.

Start with an idea, make it yours, and leave with the files you need to publish.

Choose a look that suits the story

Start with a genre-ready template, your own artwork, or a new image. You never have to face a blank page.

Make it feel like your book

Change the words, fonts, layout, and artwork yourself. Every version stays editable, so a new idea never means starting again.

Download and publish

Get correctly sized files for ebook, print, audiobook, and launch day. Coverfairy handles the setup while you keep control of the design.

Less time on file setup. More time getting your book out.

Your cover, interior, and final page count stay connected, so a change in one place does not create hours of work somewhere else.

PRINT WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK

Never guess your spine width again.

Tell Coverfairy your book size, paper, binding, and final page count. It calculates the spine and builds the complete cover for you.

Use what you have—or find something new

Edit the cover without starting over

READY WHEN THINGS CHANGE

Come back without rebuilding

Update a title, fix a typo, or change the page count in the same project, then download your included formats again.

NEW · COVERFAIRY INTERIORS

Turn your manuscript into pages that feel like a real book.

Upload a Word document or EPUB and Coverfairy lays out the chapters, headings, page numbers, and opening pages for you. When the final page count changes, the cover spine changes with it. Download an EPUB, a print-ready interior PDF, and a separate large-print edition.

Your book will change. Your files should be easy to change too.

Keep the design and print setup in one project, so a typo, new page count, or new format never sends you back to the beginning.

QUICK ANSWERS

What independent authors ask before they start.

What is Coverfairy?

Coverfairy is a browser-based book-finishing studio for independent authors. It connects an editable cover, a formatted manuscript, the real final page count, a calculated print spine, and the release files for one book in the same project.

Can I use Coverfairy for free?

Yes. You can browse templates, edit a cover, use the publishing tools, format a manuscript, and inspect a watermarked cover draft before purchasing production files. No subscription is required.

How much does Coverfairy cost?

Cover costs $9, Interior costs $19, and Complete Book costs $24, each as a one-time purchase for one book project.

Which files can Coverfairy export?

Cover exports ebook, KDP print, ACX audiobook, Canva-ready, book mockup, and promotional files. Interior exports EPUB, KDP-ready print PDF, and large-print PDF.

Does Coverfairy require AI-generated artwork?

No. Start from a curated design, upload artwork you own or license, or generate an original direction. The title and author remain editable typography whichever artwork route you choose.

How does Coverfairy calculate a print spine?

The project combines binding, trim, paper, and the final formatted page count. KDP wraps are calculated directly; IngramSpark, Lulu, and Barnes & Noble Press paperback files use the exact spine width from the current official title-specific template.
