Our pledge
No AI writes your book. Not the first draft. Not the last. Not in the middle.
We use AI for transcription and grammar utilities, not for prose. Every chapter has a named human writer attached to it.
Start where you are
Four paths in. We'll match you to one on the first call.
Most authors come in on one of these four routes. Each has a different stack, a different timeline, and a different price. Click through to see which one fits.

What we do
Five flagship services. Twenty-two in total.
Hover or tap any card to see the deliverables. Every service has a published starting-from price, a named lead, and a written timeline.
What editing actually does
A 5,000-word sample edit. Drag the handle to see the difference.
Same paragraph, before our line edit and after. Drag through the slider to see what twelve hours of work looks like on the page.
Genres we write
A different specialist team for each.
A memoir editor does not write your business book. A fantasy ghost does not edit your picture book. We assign by category, not by template.
Sample deliverables
Drag through real work the studio ships every week.
Sample chapter PDFs, cover concept rounds, narrator demos, Amazon ad creatives. The kind of work that lands on your desk on day twenty-two of a project.

Case study
Letters from the Last Year
- The brief
- Sharon had the rawest possible material — handwritten letters to Joel during his illness — and zero structure for a book. She had started typing a memoir three times and abandoned it. The voice was already there, in the letters. The problem was that letters do not make a book on their own.
- The outcome
- Hit #3 in Amazon's Memoir > Personal sub-category in launch week. Sustained top-25 for 11 weeks. Earned 247 verified reviews at 4.8 stars in the first 90 days. Sharon was invited onto two podcasts she'd never have approached cold (one a former ICU patient who recognized her hospital's name in the manuscript). Now in soft conversation with a traditional publisher about a hardcover edition for 2026.
- #3 Amazon Memoir > Personal, launch month
- 247 verified reviews in 90 days

What authors say
Real names. Real books. Real receipts.
Every testimonial here links to a published book on Amazon. If you can't click through, it isn't proof.
Maya read me my own letters back. That was the trick. Until she did that, I didn't believe a stranger could find the book inside them. After she did, it was obvious. I'd been writing the wrong book for three years.
I had been told for three years I should write a book. I didn't, because every ghostwriter pitch I got was someone who wrote celebrity memoirs trying to convince me they understood SaaS. Ravi opened the first call with a question about my net retention rate. That was the call I bought.
Sam's developmental letter told me my two endings were both wrong and then told me the right one. It made me angry for a week. Then I wrote it.
Elena read our manuscript out loud to her daughter on a Zoom call. Her daughter said 'this part is slow.' That was more useful than any feedback we'd had in eight months.
Frequently asked
Questions, answered straight.
Do I keep the copyright to my book?
Yes. You own 100% of the copyright, 100% of the royalties, and 100% of the rights to translate, adapt, or option your work. We sign over rights to you in writing on day one, before any draft is delivered.
Do you use AI to write my book?
No. Every word of every manuscript is written by a named human writer who is on our payroll. We do use AI for research aggregation, fact-checking, and grammar pass utilities — never for first-draft prose. Read our human-writing pledge for the specifics on which tools we will and won't touch.
What does it cost to work with you?
Every service has published starting-from prices on the pricing page and on each service page. Real numbers, not "customized." The actual quote depends on word count, genre, and how much we're doing — ghostwriting a 70,000-word business book is different work from a 90,000-word memoir. The discovery call gives you a written quote within 48 hours.
How long does a book take?
For a from-scratch ghostwritten book, the working range is 14 to 22 weeks from kickoff to finished manuscript. Editing alone is 3 to 6 weeks depending on scope. Cover design is 2 to 4 weeks. Audiobook production is 5 to 9 weeks. We give a written timeline at the start of every engagement and refund pro-rata if we miss it by more than two weeks for any reason that's our fault.
What if I don't like the draft?
The first 5,000 words come to you for sign-off before we go further. If the voice isn't right, we either fix it or refund what's left of the project, whichever you prefer. Two structural revision rounds and unlimited line-level revisions are built into every project. The full eligibility detail is on the refund policy page — eligibility first, exclusions last.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. Mutual NDA before kickoff, every project, no exceptions. If you bring your own NDA we will review and sign it; if you don't, we use ours. Ghostwriters are bound by a permanent confidentiality clause in their contract with us — they cannot reveal your project even years later.
Do you only work with American authors?
No. About a third of our authors are outside the US — UK, Canada, Australia, India, the UAE, Singapore. We invoice in USD, accept wire and card, and ship physical proofs internationally where customs allows. Tax handling for non-US clients is on the international FAQ.
Can I see the team I'd be working with before I commit?
Yes. On the discovery call we propose a specific writer and editor by name, you can review their work, and you can ask for someone different if the fit isn't right. We don't anonymize the team. Everyone working on your book is listed on the team page.
Will my book actually be on Amazon?
Yes — on Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) for ebook and print-on-demand, and on IngramSpark for global wide distribution. We give you the login to your own KDP and IngramSpark accounts. You own the listings. We do not lock you into a contract that holds your book hostage.
What if I already have a manuscript?
We start with a 5,000-word sample edit and a written editorial assessment so you can see the level of work before paying for the full edit. Most authors with a finished manuscript only need developmental editing plus a copyedit; some need a restructure. The assessment is $250 and refundable against the full editing fee.
