For indie authors
An AI book cover generator and designer — no expensive designers or illustration skills required. Storefront-ready artwork for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, your storefront and other publishing platforms — in minutes, not weeks of back-and-forth.
Text on the cover
Generation starts after sign-in so your cover is saved to your dashboard.
We remove the biggest indie pain points: designer cost, long timelines, and the fear of missing your genre.
Skip briefs, endless revisions, and four-figure invoices — AI builds visuals around your story.
While a designer hunts references, you already have multiple cover options to test click-through.
LitRPG, romance, post-apocalypse, mystery — templates tuned for how indie books actually sell online.
Change title, author, tagline, and genre accents without a full redraw — smart edits save time and credits.
Oliviabook is an online AI book cover generator: describe the scene, pick a genre and style, and get a ready PNG. It is both a prompt-based generator and a cover designer with typography and smart edits — in one indie publishing workflow.
Four steps from an empty form to a cover ready to publish.
Title, author, tagline — what readers see on the storefront.
Composition template and scene mood for your niche.
Art direction from cinematic to noir.
