Most tools stop at a file. Everything in the green band, you'd build yourself — or have it built here. Read down the column and decide what that's worth to you.
* “One-time” is access, not capacity. BookNova's one-time price is in euros (€59–319) and unlocks a monthly credit ration where 1 credit = 1 generated word; its €99 tier refreshes ~100,000 credits a month — roughly one full-length novel — which you still edit, proof, format, cover, host and figure out how to sell. Sudowrite's credits aren't word-mapped: per its own docs the same passage can cost many times more or fewer credits depending on the AI model you pick.
The green band is where the offers diverge. Every tool here ends at “export your file, go to KDP.” This offer also hands you a free, auto-updating author page, a list that builds itself off the free-chapter PDF, ready-built sales pages, and checkout wired to your own PayPal — yours to use anywhere, keeping nearly all of it (only your payment-processor fee, no platform cut). Whether that's worth more to you than a cheaper word-generator is the call to make.
Honest anchors: Sudowrite is a writing assistant and AuthorFlows a story planner — neither is sold as a finished book. They're included on purpose, so this can't be dismissed as a cherry-picked lineup.
Sources & figures. Every competitor price and credit figure above is taken from each company's own pricing page, verified June 2026: BookNova, Inkfluence, musely.ai (the AI writing tool — not the unrelated musely.com skincare brand), Sudowrite, AuthorFlows. A “~” means partial or not stated by the vendor; an “✗” means it isn't offered or advertised. Plans change — check current pricing before deciding.
1 Out of scope for a sold-once boutique model; shown honestly so the rest is believed.
