The cover studio.
Three mockups in one brief.

Tell us about your book — title, genre, mood, audience — pick two visual styles, and we’ll spin up three distinct concepts side by side. No stock-photo contracts, no Canva rabbit hole. Authoring authors stay on the same shelf as the readers they wrote for.

Step 01 — The manuscript brief

Tell us about the book.

Step 02 — Pick two visuals

Choose the visual languages.

Moody

Atmospheric, deep, painterly.

Bold

High-contrast, graphic, modern.

Minimalist

Restrained, refined, spacious.

Illustrated

Hand-drawn, textured, warm.

Pick 2 styles — e.g. “moody” + “illustrated”.

Step 03 — Three concepts

The mockups.

Awaits brief

Pick two styles above, then hit “Generate mockups” to see three concepts here.

How it works

Three reads of the same brief.

We don’t generate cover concepts by accident — three different visual directions from the same manuscript brief, so you can compare feels instead of testing layouts one at a time.

Lead style

The first style you pick is the dominant visual direction for the first concept — moody becomes atmospheric, bold becomes graphic, and so on.

Accent style

The second style rides alongside the lead as a light accent on the second concept — the same brief, refined by a second visual language.

Balanced blend

The third tile is a 50/50 blend of both — equally weighted, so you can tell whether the two languages actually hold together as one cover.
