AI Book Cover Generator
Genre-perfect 2:3 cover art for novels and ebooks, no designer needed.
An AI book cover generator creates professional, genre-appropriate cover art from a description of your story - fantasy, thriller, romance, sci-fi or literary. You get a tall 2:3 composition with a strong focal image and room for your title and author name, ready for KDP and ebook stores. Describe the mood and key imagery, add your typography, and self-publish a cover that looks designed.
Most book covers are roughly 2:3 (Kindle is 1600x2560). Leave space for the title and author and upscale for print.

Frequently asked questions
What size is a book cover?
Kindle and most ebook covers are around 1600x2560 pixels, a 1.6:1 (roughly 2:3) ratio. Generate at 2:3 here, then upscale so the final art stays sharp. For print, your printer will give exact dimensions including spine and bleed.
How do I add the title and author name?
Generate the artwork with clear space at the top and bottom, then set your title and author name in a design tool with proper typography. Avoid baking text into the generation, since AI lettering is unreliable.
Can I publish and sell books with these covers?
Yes. Every image includes a commercial license, so you can use the cover on KDP, ebook stores and print-on-demand for books you sell. Match the genre conventions and your cover will look professionally designed.
