Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Creator and Pro?

Creator unlocks professional exports for one book ($12.99 one-time). Pro unlocks everything across all your books ($39.99/year). If you publish regularly, Pro pays for itself after 3 books per year.

Can I try before I buy?

Yes! Free tier lets you write, collaborate, and export unlimited books with a small footer. Try the full workflow before deciding if you need clean exports.

What happens to Creator purchases if I upgrade to Pro?

They stay yours forever! If you later cancel Pro, your purchased books still have clean exports unlocked.

What's in the 'Made with Hotpress' footer?

Just a small text footer on free exports. No watermarks, no branding on content pages - just a single line at the end of your book.

What is 'print-ready CMYK'?

Professional print shops require CMYK color space, bleed marks, and trim marks. These are included with Creator and Pro - essential if you're printing physical copies.
