No agent, no deal, no production crew — describe what you want to make and PubEx turns it into a finished ebook, audiobook, video serial, podcast, print book, magazine or animated motion piece, ready for distribution.
Built for authors, podcasters, filmmakers, illustrators, journals & independent presses.
A crew, a studio and connections used to be the price of entry. PubEx asks for the idea; it builds the rest.
No script, manuscript or storyboard required. Describe what you want to make in a prompt — already have something written or shot? Upload it instead.
Nothing you build through PubEx is licensed away. Text, audio, video, editions — the rights in them are yours, full stop.
Professional narration alone can run $2,500–$4,900 a title through a human studio — video production runs far higher. PubEx removes that as the gate to having one at all.
Digital 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. 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.
Pick the medium you actually work in — or run the same idea through all three.
For authors, editors and journal publishers
A complete, reflowable ebook from one prompt — a manuscript is optional, not required.
The same title as paperback or hardback, printed to order — no run to fund, nothing to warehouse.
Recurring magazines and journals with ISSN and issue layout — with full photography and illustration, or text-only.
For podcasters, narrators and audio storytellers
Mastered audiobooks from a prompt or manuscript, at a fraction of studio cost.
Episodic podcasts — scripted or discussion-format — produced and released on a schedule you set.
Multi-voice serialized audio drama, structured in episodes, released one at a time.
For video creators, illustrators and visual storytellers
AI-generated video serials, scripted and structured in episodes like a scripted show.
Turns still images into animated sequences with narration or music layered on top — no filming required.
AI-first translation with human editorial finish, for any format above — one idea, five languages.
Metadata generated on every run, pushed into 40,000+ retail and library endpoints.
Every format 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, hardback and magazine issues, 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, video 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, audio, podcast episodes and video sold or streamed direct to readers, listeners and viewers, including episode-by-episode drops for serialized Drama and Reel titles.
This is usually where a first sale happens fastest, since there's no library acquisition cycle or wholesale order lag involved.
Every piece is catalogued once — identifier, contributors, format, language, rights, price — into a single 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, every format, everywhere it sells — no lower cut for third-party channels and no premium kept for our own.
One rate, every format, everywhere it 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, any format. 70% — $7.00 — is yours. The remaining $3.00 covers the channel's own cut and PubEx's share of production and distribution.
There's no checkout here for buying a title. Readers, listeners and viewers buy through AskSurFa, ZLOADR or VoxFlicks. On PubEx itself, ZDR is only ever spent by creators, on production.
Royalties settle to you in USDT or fiat — your choice. Whatever a buyer 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 piece 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-creator 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 piece will sell.
A finished manuscript, raw footage, half a season of episodes, or just an idea — PubEx can start wherever you are. Free to register, no obligation. Early access includes optional distribution to 40,000+ retail and library endpoints.
Three fields and a short note — that's it.
Thanks — we'll email you when PubEx opens for early access.
Name, email and what you want to create. No wallet required.

When PubEx opens for early access, ZDR holders are invited first, then the rest of the register in order.
PubEx 1.0 is SEW Capital's AI engine — and the nine format models built on it that go from a single prompt to a finished draft. Not tied to a single platform or token; it is the infrastructure underneath SEW Capital's publishing output generally. It is an operational reference, not an offer or investment content.
Every model described further down this page — Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel, Motion and Lingua — runs on the same underlying engine. PubEx 1.0 is not itself a finished-format tool; it is the shared drafting and consistency layer that each named model specialises for its own format.
Every named model sits on the same engine, not a separate unrelated toolchain.
Structural, language and formatting consistency that hand assembly cannot sustain.
No multi-step chain to manage — a prompt goes in, a finished draft comes back.
Text, audio, print, video, translation — the same engine underneath each model.
PubEx 1.0 is what makes nine named models viable instead of nine unrelated production systems. One engine, consistently maintained, underneath all of them.
Each model takes a single prompt describing an idea — no source file needed — and applies the specific structure, pacing and technical conventions that its format requires. A source manuscript can be uploaded instead, for creators converting an existing work. Either way, there is no separate chain of steps to manage: one prompt in, one finished draft out.
Text-driven models — reflowable, print, and periodical
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts a structured digital edition — reflowable layout, internal navigation, and the metadata a digital edition needs to be catalogued correctly. Given an optional source manuscript instead, it converts that existing text into the same structured edition.
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts a print edition — interior typesetting, cover composition, and a print-ready file with the trim, bleed and barcode conventions a physical edition needs. Given an optional source manuscript, it converts an existing text into the same print-ready edition.
From a single prompt describing the issue's theme and sections, handles the structural difference between a single standalone work and a periodical: issue-based layout, recurring sections, and the identifier conventions periodicals use instead of a book's. Given an optional source manuscript or back issue, it uses that as the basis instead.
Audio models — narration, podcast and dramatized
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts a narrated audio edition — voice performance, pacing and chaptering — then applies audio mastering so the draft is technically finished. Given an optional source manuscript, it narrates that existing text instead of originating new material.
From a single prompt describing the show's premise, drafts an episodic podcast — scripted or discussion-format — with episode titles, segment structure and host voice. Because it is built for a released series rather than a single file, the draft is structured as a run of episodes from the start, ready for the schedule the creator sets.
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts a dramatized, multi-voice production structured for serialized, episode-by-episode release, rather than a single straight narration. Because it is built for serialization, Drama's output is structured in episodes from the start, rather than a single file split up afterwards.
Visual models — episodic video and animated pieces
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts a video serial — episode scripts, scene and shot structure, and the episodic cut points a serialized show needs. Given an optional source manuscript, it adapts that work into the serial format instead of originating new material. Reel is built for AI-generated video, so its drafts are shaped around what a video pipeline can actually produce, not prose broken into scenes afterwards.
From a single prompt describing the idea, drafts an animated sequence — turning still images into motion, layering narration or music on top, and pacing the result to a finished runtime. Because it works per finished minute rather than per page or per episode, Motion's drafts are shaped by timing from the start, not by a prose layout that gets animated afterwards.
Runs across every format, not a format of its own
From a single prompt describing the idea and naming the target language, drafts an original work directly in that language — no source-language draft has to exist first. Given an optional source manuscript instead, it returns a complete translated draft of that existing text. Because it sits across the format models rather than inside any one of them, a single Lingua pass — whether originated from a prompt or translated from a source — can feed Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel or Motion for the same work, rather than each format needing its own separate language step.
Each model returns a complete draft from a single prompt. A separate, optional editorial review pass can be added afterwards — see usage & pricing for how that is priced — but it is not a required step to get a finished draft out of any model.
Every model — Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel, Motion and Lingua — follows the same general pattern: a single prompt goes in — describing an idea, or naming an optional uploaded source to convert — PubEx 1.0 drafts, and the named model shapes that draft to its own format. There is no multi-step chain to manage, and no required human pass before a draft is returned.
By default, a single prompt describing the idea is the only input. To convert an existing work instead, a source manuscript can be uploaded alongside it — no separate stages to queue up beforehand.
The core engine produces the structural and language-consistent base draft that the named model then shapes.
Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel or Motion applies its format-specific structure, or Lingua applies the requested language — and returns a complete draft.
Editorial review is available as a separate, optional step after a draft is returned, priced on its own — it is not part of the single-prompt generation described above.
These figures describe PubEx 1.0's own output and sales record to date, independent of any single platform. They are a record of engine performance, not a forecast for any individual title produced with it.
These figures describe SEW Capital's own engine performance to date. They are not evidence of how any individual future title will perform, and producing more drafts does not guarantee more sales.
SEW Capital owns 100% of PubEx 1.0 and the nine models built on it — Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel, Motion and Lingua — along with the IP and output those models generate. No token confers any ownership of the engine, the models, or their output.
This page describes the engine and its models as infrastructure in their own right. It does not describe, and should not be read as describing, the utility of any specific token or the mechanics of any specific platform that may use this engine's output.
Descriptive, by design. This page describes PubEx 1.0, the AI engine owned by SEW Capital, and the nine models built on it — Prose, Print, Press, Narrate, Cast, Drama, Reel, Motion and Lingua. It is an operational reference. It is not a prospectus, not an offer, not a solicitation, and not a recommendation to acquire, hold or dispose of any token.
Not tied to a platform or token. This page intentionally does not describe how any specific platform sequences its workflow, nor the utility, mechanics or settlement of any specific token. Those are documented separately, elsewhere in the insights list, and token usage pricing for these models is set out on the usage & pricing section.
Not a forecast. The figures on this page describe the engine's track record to date. They are not evidence of how any individual future title, format or language edition will perform.
No price information. We do not publish price information, return expectations, yield, appreciation claims, or any statement of value for any token on this page. Nothing here should be read as financial, legal or tax advice.
We can take you through the engine, how each named model specialises it, and how Lingua fits across them. This is documentation, not a pitch.
A usage page for a hosted AI model usually separates what it costs to generate an output from what it costs to serve or deliver it. PubEx 1.0's usage splits the same way — a generation cost and a release cost — but both are quoted in USD so the number on this page does not move with ZDR's own price. At the point of use, that USD amount is converted to ZDR at the prevailing rate and settled in ZDR, the only token SEW Capital operates.
Quoted per model, per unit, to produce a finished draft from a single prompt.
Quoted per edition to settle its release across SEW Capital's distribution channels.
The USD amount converts to ZDR at the prevailing rate at the point of use.
Editorial review and registration are priced as separate add-ons, not baked into model rates.
The figures on this page are illustrative unit-cost figures for using PubEx 1.0's models — how much a given draft or release costs in USD terms, settled in ZDR — not a statement of what ZDR is worth as an asset.
The source manuscript and the prompt that go into a model are not separately metered — the generation cost below covers the full single-prompt draft, start to finish. The release cost covers settling that finished edition across SEW Capital's owned distribution channels. Both figures are quoted in USD and settle in ZDR at the point of use.
A model's ZDR generation cost covers the single-prompt draft only. Anything beyond that — human review, the identifiers a work needs to be sellable, or adding to an existing title — is metered on its own.
Optional human sign-off on a model's draft before release. Not required to receive a finished draft from any model, and priced on top of generation rather than included in it. Settles in ZDR.
ISBN or ISSN registration, barcode generation and ONIX metadata deposit for a new title — a one-off cost per work, not per model run. Matches the Bowker list price quoted in the Get Tokens section below. Settles in ZDR.
Adding a format, language or instalment to an already-registered title runs through the same model at its standard USD rate, without a second registration charge.
Returning to a model with a revised prompt is billed as a new single-prompt generation at that model's standard rate — there is no separate "edit" tier.
The flow below shows the two billing points in a single request to any model in the PubEx 1.0 family — both quoted in USD, both settled in ZDR.
No charge at this step — the source file and the instruction are not separately metered.
The model's per-unit USD rate is charged once the finished draft is returned, start to finish, from the single prompt.
Editorial review or registration, if wanted, are billed in USD on top of generation — not automatically applied.
Generation, any add-ons, and the release cost across SEW Capital's distribution channels are converted to ZDR at the prevailing rate and settled in one token.
Illustrative only, using the unit rates above. Not a quote, and not a forecast of what any specific title will cost to produce.
Source manuscript: 80,000 words (8 units of 10,000 words). Audiobook assumed at 8 finished hours. One additional language via Lingua, reviewed before release.
Release: $5.00 Prose + $8.00 Narrate + $4.00 Lingua = $17. Plus $125 for the title's original ISBN registration. All amounts settle in ZDR, at the rate in effect when each step runs.
Demonstrating the episodic and video models — priced per episode, settled in ZDR.
Plus $125 for the series' registration (one work, one fee). All amounts settle in ZDR, at the rate in effect when each step runs.
These examples are for illustration only. Word counts, run times and language counts vary by work, and actual usage should be confirmed against current rates on the platform itself.
The best way to buy anything on our platforms is with ZDR. Pay in ZDR and you get a discount at checkout; pay in fiat and you pay the full price, with the fiat converted to ZDR at the point of sale. This section tells you how to get ZDR the best way, and what the discount is worth.
The simplest route. Check out in local fiat on any of our platforms; fiat is converted to ZDR automatically at the point of sale. You pay the full listed price. Nothing to set up, no wallet needed.
ZDR trades on VinDax against ETH and BTC. Buy ZDR there, hold it in your wallet, and check out with it on our platforms. You pay the ZDR price, which carries the discount.
ZDR checkout carries a discount against the fiat list price — pay in fiat and you pay the full listed price; pay in ZDR and you pay less for the same purchase. The discount applies wherever ZDR is accepted, so the more you buy across the catalogue, the more it is worth. The current discount rate is shown at checkout before you pay — check it there, as it is subject to change.
Token prices move. Confirm the current ZDR rate on VinDax before you buy, and check the current discount rate at checkout. Nothing on this page is price information, a return expectation or a statement of ZDR's value as an asset — it describes how to acquire ZDR and what the checkout discount is worth.
Only use these official ZDR (Zloadr) contract addresses on each network. Anything else is not ZDR.
ZDR is spent on PubEx for production services only — there's no checkout here for buying a title. Nothing on this page is price information, a return expectation or a statement of ZDR's value as an asset.
