Built for how books actually get written
Books follows the highest-converting path for repeat experts: start from real material, build structure, write with context, revise the manuscript, and export the final file from one place.
1
Import the source
Bring in newsletters, course notes, consulting material, or a draft manuscript and split it into chapters.
2
Build the outline
Create or refine a chapter plan so every draft starts from a clear structure.
3
Write and revise
Write chapter by chapter, edit in the book editor, and review the flow in reader mode.
4
Export the final book
Upgrade when the manuscript is ready, then choose the right format for e-readers, review copies, or training handoff.
The manuscript stays connected to the final book
Folio keeps the brief, outline, chapters, review state, and delivery formats in one persistent project—so the thing you plan is the thing you ship.
Export when the manuscript is genuinely ready
Review the whole book in reader mode, then choose the delivery format that fits the next step: a review copy, ebook, web edition, or training handoff.
One chapter workflowKeep drafting, revision, and completion status visible across the manuscript.
One final read-throughSwitch from editing mode to a calmer manuscript view before you ship.
More than one editionExtend a finished source book into international or audiobook editions later.
A book project, shown at every stage
The product story is easier to trust when the same kind of work is visible from planning through delivery.

Revision stays part of the authoring workflow
The goal is not to accept a first draft. It is to move a chapter from workable to yours, then read it in the context of the whole book.
Working draft
The framework is important because it helps people understand the process and make better decisions in their work.
Author-shaped revision
A useful framework does more than explain a process. It gives the reader a decision they can make today—and a way to recognize when the next decision has arrived.
Built for authors who care about the finished work
Folio keeps the author in control while giving the manuscript the structure, continuity, and delivery path that long projects need.
Author-controlledAI drafting is one step in the workflow. You decide what stays, what changes, and when a chapter is final.
Manuscript-firstThe outline, chapter list, review state, and reader view remain connected to the same source book.
Delivery-awareThe project ends with an exportable artifact, not just a conversation or a collection of disconnected drafts.
Start from the book project you actually have
Folio is most useful when it meets you where the manuscript is today—not where a blank-page writing app assumes you are.
Existing materialI have notes, newsletters, or researchImport the material, find the structure, and turn the backlog into a book plan.

What this helps you finish
Gixo Folio works best when the manuscript stays in one system from plan to final export instead of jumping between disconnected tools.
Import-first book planning
Start from the material you already have so the book becomes a structured asset rather than another blank-page project.
Review before export
Draft chapter by chapter, mark chapters final, use reader mode for the last pass, then export in the format that matches the destination.
International editions
After the source manuscript is ready, create localized editions through the Books international-edition flow across 89 modeled locale variants.
