How It Works

From Raw EPUB To Illustrated Reading In Four Steps

Bookworm keeps the flow simple: import, analyze, generate, and listen. It works as a reading companion across fiction, history, and biography, and you only pay for the AI outputs you choose.

Step 1

Import EPUB

Bring in any DRM-free EPUB from your library.

Books appear in your library immediately and analysis starts in the background.

Step 2

Analyze Story

Bookworm detects major points, characters, locations, and world elements.

Analysis is free. You can read right away while AI processing completes.

Step 3

Generate Visuals

Pick your style and quality tier, then generate scene images and variants.

Mix styles or tiers chapter-by-chapter and use custom image generation on highlights.

Step 4

Listen

Choose a narrator voice and generate chapter audio that syncs with your reading.

Audio is priced per chapter by length. Pick from five distinct narrator voices — the AI adapts naturally to dialogue and pacing.

FAQ

This section mirrors the app FAQ categories: getting started, reading features, images and pricing, plus account and credits.

We recommend generating just a few chapters ahead rather than the entire book — especially for a new book you're not sure you'll stick with. This way you only spend credits on chapters you actually read.
