- Exports as PNG, JPEG, or a print-ready PDF in one click.
How the book cover generator works
Describe your book the way you would to a friend — the genre, the mood, the central idea or character, and any imagery you have in mind. The generator turns that description into a professional front-cover composition with clear space for a title and author name.
The output is a design starting point. Use it as a finished cover for drafts and pitches, or as a base to hand a designer with a clear visual direction already established.
How to write a good description
The more specific and evocative your description, the stronger the cover. Name the genre outright, describe the tone, and mention one or two concrete images or symbols that capture the book.
- State the genre and mood explicitly (e.g. 'a tense literary thriller, cold and atmospheric').
- Mention a central image, symbol, or setting you want featured.
- Keep it to roughly 200 words — enough detail to be specific, not a full synopsis.
Exporting your cover
Once your cover is generated, export it in the format you need: PNG for the highest quality, JPEG for smaller files, or a print-ready PDF sized to the cover for KDP and other print workflows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an account to generate a book cover?
Yes. Book cover generation runs an AI image request, so it requires a free Article Video Studio account. Sign in with Google and you can generate and export covers right away.
How many book covers can I generate for free?
Free accounts include 5 AI book cover generations. Pro and Standard plans have unlimited generations. Exported covers are yours to keep regardless of plan.
What formats can I export the cover in?
You can download your cover as a PNG (highest quality), a JPEG (smaller file size), or a print-ready PDF sized to the cover — useful for Kindle Direct Publishing and other print-on-demand services.
Can I use the generated cover commercially?
The cover is a design starting point you can build on. Review the imagery for anything that resembles a real person or trademarked work before commercial use, and treat AI titles or text as placeholders to replace with your final typography.
