Common Questions.

Not at all. Describe your idea and Anthra drafts chapters from an outline and beat sheet. You can edit anything, rewrite passages, or import a manuscript you already have. You always stay in control of the story.

The cover creator builds front, back, and spine panels separately—or generates a single wraparound—then composes them into a print-ready spread. Chapter art and character portraits stay locked to one visual style across the whole book.

Yes. Cast a narrator per character from the live ElevenLabs library—hundreds of lifelike voices, plus voice cloning—layer ambience and intro stings, and Anthra packages a chapter-by-chapter M4B from the same manuscript.

EPUB, PDF, and DOCX for digital, Lulu print-on-demand for paperbacks (Anthra computes spine width and bleed), and M4B / MP3 audiobook files. Every export is generated from the same source manuscript.

Yes. Anthra imports DOC, DOCX, EPUB, MOBI, and PDF. We chapterize the file, build a character and world bible from what you have, and you can illustrate, narrate, and publish from there.

Yes. Anthra ships a public REST API at /api/v1/* with an OpenAPI schema, plus an MCP server at /api/mcp that lets Claude, Cursor, and Claude Code use Anthra as a set of callable tools.

Yes. Publish to the Discover marketplace, gate downloads behind email capture or paid checkout, and follow the reader funnel from your dashboard. Royalties and costs surface on the money dashboard.

You do. The stories, illustrations, and narration you generate are yours. Paid credit packs include a commercial license so you can sell and publish your work.

Yes. New accounts get a welcome credit balance—no card required—so you can write, illustrate, and preview narration on your first short book before buying a credit pack.
