No agent, no deal, no production experience — describe what you want to write and PubEx turns it into a finished ebook, audiobook, serialized audio drama or translated edition ready for distribution.
Traditional publishing filtered by connections and budget. PubEx filters by whether you have something to say.
No finished manuscript required. Describe what you want to write in a prompt and get a complete draft back — already have pages? Upload them instead.
Nothing you build through PubEx is licensed away. Text, audio, editions — the rights in them are yours, full stop.
Professional narration alone can run $2,500–$4,900 a title through a human studio. PubEx removes that as the gate to having an audiobook at all.
Ebooks and audio carry no stock to hold; print runs on demand. Nothing to warehouse, nothing to remainder.
Literary translation is typically quoted per word, often $0.08–$0.20 — an 80,000-word novel in one extra language can run $6,400–$16,000 before it's even proofread. Lingua removes that as the price of a new language market.
Reaching 40,000+ retail and library endpoints used to mean a distribution deal and a sales team pitching accounts one at a time. One catalogue record makes a title orderable across the whole network at once.
Each model is built for a specific format. Run one, or run them all from the same source file.
One prompt describing your idea returns a complete, reflowable digital edition — ready for global retail. A manuscript is optional, not required.
Mastered audiobooks produced from a prompt or a manuscript, at a fraction of studio cost.
Multi-voice serialized audio drama, structured in episodes from the idea, released one at a time.
Recurring journals and periodicals with ISSN, issue layout and a formal masthead — from a theme and a prompt.
AI-first translation with human editorial finish. One idea, five languages, terminology-consistent.
Metadata generated on every run, pushed into 40,000+ retail and library endpoints.
A title is catalogued once, then released across four channels. Here's what each one actually does, and how a sale makes its way back to you.
Paperback and hardback, printed to order. No print run to fund up front and nothing to warehouse — a copy is printed only once it's actually bought.
Carries a standard retail barcode, so it's shelf- and scanner-compatible wherever print distribution reaches.
Ebook, audiobook and journal access licensed to libraries and institutions, with SSO and MARC records so it slots into how libraries already catalogue and lend.
A library licence is a sale like any other — it's bought and checked out through ZLOADR itself, not through PubEx.
Ebook and audio sold direct to readers and listeners, including episode-by-episode drops for serialized Drama titles.
This is usually where a first sale happens fastest, since there's no library acquisition cycle or wholesale order lag involved.
Every title is catalogued once — identifier, contributors, format, language, rights, price — into a single ONIX record.
That one record is what makes a title orderable across the 40,000+ retail and library endpoints in the wholesale network, without submitting to each one individually.
One rate, everywhere a title sells — no lower cut for third-party channels and no premium kept for our own.
Sold through ZLOADR to libraries and institutions. Same 70/30 split as every other channel — a licence is a sale like any other.
Sold through the ONIX wholesale feed into the 40,000+ retail and library endpoint network. 70% of what the channel actually pays back comes to you.
AskSurFa, ZLOADR and VoxFlicks are ours, but the rate doesn't change because of it — still 70% to you, 30% to PubEx.
Take a round $10 sale, on any channel. 70% — $7.00 — is yours. The remaining $3.00 covers the channel's own cut and PubEx's share of production and distribution. The percentage doesn't shift by channel or by format — only the sale price does.
There's no checkout here for buying a title. Readers and institutions buy through AskSurFa, ZLOADR or VoxFlicks. On PubEx itself, ZDR is only ever spent by creators, on production — registering, producing and translating a title.
Royalties settle to you in USDT or fiat — your choice. Whatever a reader pays on the channel they bought from, your 70% share reaches you in stablecoin or your local currency, so your payout isn't exposed to token price movement.
70% is the split, not a forecast. How much that turns into depends on what a title actually sells — nothing here estimates volume or sets an expected income.
This isn't a theory — it's the same engine already running SEW Capital's own catalogue, at a scale no single-title workflow reaches.
Company-reported performance on SEW Capital's own catalogue to date. Past engine performance is not a forecast or a guarantee of how any individual title will sell.
