Plan or import the manuscript
Start blank, prepare an outline or import a supported manuscript and review its chapter split. Keep chapter titles, book context and continuity notes available during drafting.
An AI book generator for manuscripts that still have to ship as files
Gixo Folio generates a structured book from a brief and chapter plan, then keeps review and export on the same project. It is stronger for finished-file handoff than treating the book like one giant prompt.
Folio · real output
An actual manuscript. A complete export to inspect.
Open the finished book and the brief that produced it. Planning, chapter drafting, editorial passes and a frozen publishing edition have different scopes.
The Summer Lost-and-Found
A chapter book for readers aged seven to nine: a boy is put in charge of his village's lost-property cupboard for one summer and has to find the owners of a growing pile of odd objects. Folio wrote all six chapters from the brief. Each runs 1,513 to 1,754 words where the brief asked for about 1,100.
Inspect the source brief or data
A funny, warm chapter book for readers aged seven to nine about a boy who is put in charge of his village's lost-property cupboard for one summer and has to find the owners of a growing pile of odd objects. Six short chapters of about 1,100 words each, short sentences, plenty of dialogue, and a gentle surprise in the last chapter. Audience: Children aged seven to nine, read alone or aloud. Tone: Funny, warm and gentle. Everything in the book is invented: the village, the people and the events. Use no real person, organisation, brand or place, and no statistics or quotations.
Read the sample review notes
Screened mechanically for what the brief forbade (a real person, organisation, brand, place, statistic or quotation) and found none: every capitalised name is a character or place in the book. Nobody has edited the text, and nobody has read it for quality.
Review chapter by chapter
Draft individually or use Folio's sequential chapter batch. Inspect continuity findings and evidence, then accept, reject or defer editorial issues. Editorial findings do not overwrite manuscript text on their own.
Proof the exported edition
Choose the format and chapter scope separately. For print, inspect trim, margins, gutter, bleed, matter and rendered page count. Freeze the edition, annotate its exact proof and track corrections before preparing the publishing handoff.
Chapter batches, continuity and editorial passes
Review the imported chapter split or planned outline, then draft individual chapters or a sequential batch. Continuity entries can retain characters, frameworks, sources, story time, applicable chapters and who knows a fact. Editorial passes retain reading coverage and quoted evidence; accept, reject or defer findings without allowing the model to overwrite the manuscript automatically.
Format, chapter scope and print geometry
Choose the format separately from the full-book, current-chapter or selected-chapter scope. Print controls cover trim, margins, mirrored gutter, bleed, running matter and page numbering. A paperback wrap uses the rendered page count with the selected paper and ink choices. Fixed-layout EPUB spreads remain unavailable in the current UI.
Frozen editions, figures and international versions
Freeze the manuscript and export settings, inspect the exact proof, annotate corrections and compare it with later chapter changes. Saved Prism figures retain their own revision and accessibility text; updating the source visual does not silently replace an edition's snapshot. Translation creates a separate edition with its source revision, progress and export to review.
Folio chapter batching is separate from Quill CSV bulk generation. Fixed-layout EPUB spreads are not offered in the current UI. Print preflight and a publishing checklist do not guarantee retailer acceptance or perform a retailer upload.
$19/mo
Monthly AI drafting, built to be cancelled when the book ships.
Free workspace
Start blank, import and manually write without a subscription; AI planning has separate access/capacity conditions.
6 exports
EPUB, editable DOCX, chapter PDF, HTML, Markdown, and SCORM are built into the final workflow.
87
Locale variants supported for international editions once the source manuscript is ready.
Write, review and prepare the same book for handoff
Folio keeps more than a draft: chapter edits, sources, reading coverage, reader suggestions and edition proofs remain attached to the book and its recorded revisions.
Choose the edit that fits the job
Write manually or request chapter prose. Continue and AI Write add text; Quick AI and Power Edit work on selections; Ask Folio proposes changes you review.
AI assistance can change meaning or invent details. Inspect saved versions and every proposed revision.
Keep research and review accountable
Attach readable sources, inspect extraction and passage coverage, run focused editorial passes and record claim/canon or reader-feedback decisions.
Bounded review and author approvals are not independent fact-checking. Changed inputs may make findings stale.
Keep proof and handoff with the revision
Freeze an edition, inspect the actual files, retain proof notes and prepare a handoff from the reviewed artifact.
Measured preflight is guidance. You own rights, final editing, platform requirements and the retailer upload.
Start blank, import and manually edit your own book. Its downloads and proofs do not need an active Folio subscription. New AI planning, drafting and editorial assistance need eligible access; translation and narration use separate edition conditions. Existing book view, comment and edit permissions apply.

Folio is a strong fit whenThe manuscript still needs structure, revision, and a finish line.
Use the persistent book workspace when the outcome is a real guide, authority book, training manual, client asset, or exportable edition.
Consider another tool whenYou only need one narrow part of the publishing job.
If your manuscript is already finished and you only need specialist formatting or a dedicated fiction system, a focused tool may be the simpler choice.
What a serious AI book generator should do
Generation is the middle of the job. The product still has to plan, review, and export.
Book brief
Start from the real purpose of the book
Define the title, audience, promise, and outcome before chapters start multiplying.
Chapter structure
Shape the manuscript before generating
Use the chapter plan as the working structure so the book stays coherent.
Draft and revise
Generate chapters inside the same workspace
Draft quickly, then revise in context instead of copying text across tools.
Review
Review the manuscript before export
Reviewing the full book in the workspace helps confirm the manuscript is genuinely ready before choosing an export format.
Final output
Export the finished book directly
Choose the export path that matches the destination once the book is ready.
Publishing boundary
Files, not retailer distribution
Folio prepares downloadable book files; it does not publish them to a retailer, provide human copyediting, or guarantee publishing or commercial outcomes.

4
Review and export
Do the final read-through before exporting the finished files.
Gixo Folio vs a generic AI book generator
The difference is whether generation stays attached to a manuscript you can ship as files.
| Decision area | Gixo Folio | Generic AI generator |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | Book brief plus chapter plan | Prompt-first |
| Drafting continuity | Chapter workflow stays attached to the manuscript | Often fragmented |
| Review | Review the full manuscript in the workspace before export | Review controls vary by tool |
| Output | Final file export is built in | Requires extra tools |
| Retailer publishing | Prepares downloadable files for you to submit | Often implied, rarely delivered |
What this page really means
An AI book generator still has to finish the file
People searching for an AI book generator usually want more than a stack of generated chapters. They want a way to get from idea to a downloadable manuscript without losing structure.
That is the job Gixo Folio is built for.
Where Gixo Folio stops
Folio prepares files; it does not publish to retailers
Folio prepares downloadable book files; it does not publish them to a retailer, provide human copyediting, or guarantee publishing or commercial outcomes.
You still choose the retailer, aggregator, or printer and submit the exported files yourself.
