For Authors
The free-book site that’s free for authors too.
Other promo sites charge $25–$120 to feature a free book. Boocu features yours for nothing: on our homepage next to the Amazon charts, in our reader email, and in the book video we publish on TikTok every day. You even get your own author page at you.boocu.com.
What You Get, Free
Premium: A Debugger for Your Novel
Before you spend $2,000+ on a human developmental editor, run the Boocu Novel Audit. Our AI reads your entire manuscript in one sitting and reports — with quoted evidence, not vague vibes — the things beta readers miss:
- Forensic continuity audit: forward + backward passes over a full story bible
- Logic bugs & plot holes, each anchored to an exact quote
- Timeline contradictions & knowledge errors (“how does she know that?”)
- Location/blocking, plausibility, unresolved threads, repeated beats
- Visual report: issue map of your manuscript + pacing bands
- CAWPILE score — the BookTok rating system, 7 dimensions
- Reads the whole manuscript in one pass — up to ~300k words
- Honest diagnosis of your current description
- Three rewritten blurbs in different styles
- Copy-paste Amazon HTML formatting
- Keywords worked in naturally
- Would an agent’s reader turn the page?
- Opening-line alternatives
- Filter words, info-dumps, telling-not-showing — quoted
- Your top 3 revisions, prioritized
- A hand-crafted BookTok video just for your book
- Posted on Boocu’s TikTok, yours to share and pin
- Hook, cover animation and caption written for you
- Credits refunded if we ever decline
- (Approved free books also rotate into the daily group video at no cost.)
- Your own you.boocu.com subdomain
- Professional [email protected] email address

- Contact us to upgrade →
- Use your Boocu account email at checkout — activation is automatic.
Every new account starts with 3 free credits — enough for a full Novel Audit. Analytical AI only: it critiques your writing, it never writes for you.
House Rules
We review every submission by hand — professionalism of cover, blurb and editing — so readers keep trusting our picks. Your book must actually be free on the days we feature it (permafree, or a scheduled KDP free promotion). The same book can be featured once every 30 days. No review-count minimums: new authors welcome.
