Honest answers
The questions people actually ask.
No pricing-page riddles. If something here is unclear, ask us and we will answer in plain language.
Live titles count. Readers and staff do not.
Each distinct work with at least one edition available to readers counts once. UK, US, and other editions using the same Work Canonical ID share one title slot. Draft, withdrawn, and revoked editions do not count, and readers, purchases, downloads, listening, and reading activity never affect the plan.
You move to the next plan on this page
Each work counts once when at least one edition is available. Draft, withdrawn, and revoked editions do not count. Review your title capacity before a release takes the catalog into the next plan; reductions take effect at renewal.
0% for tax-exempt organizations
Verified tax-exempt organizations on a paid plan pay no platform fee on payments, ever — and donors are never asked to tip. Other organizations pay 1% on paid plans (2% on Free) on top of standard processor rates.
Because collaboration is the point
Adding a board member, a seasonal helper, or your bookkeeper should never be a budget decision. Your staff, volunteers, and helpers are unlimited on every plan — there are no seat fees here.
Bring us one publishing workflow worth making dependable.
Show us the title sheet, the sales statement export, the author-document path, or the production handoff that currently depends on a spreadsheet. We will map the workflow, confirm the right plan, and walk through implementation.
