- Professional EPUB3 structure
- Print-ready book layouts
- Visual and illustrated pages
- Table of contents management
- Device preview
- KDP & IngramSpark trim presets
- Windows and macOS support
Optional cloud backup
Author Pass & Publisher include 25 cloud projects and 10 GB while active. Not unlimited.
Publisher includes cloud for year 1. After that, Cloud Renew is $19/year if you want to keep sync.

Trusted by indie authors
“I draft in the browser and export clean KDP files without rebuilding the book in Word. Device preview alone saved me two proof cycles.”
“Publisher Lifetime paid for itself on my third title. Print PDF and EPUB from one manuscript — exactly what I needed after outgrowing basic formatters.”
“Plot Grid plus formatting in one app replaced my separate planning and layout tools. I still listen to drafts elsewhere, but publishing happens in Manusly.”
“Windows-native workflow with offline projects was the deciding factor. I compare trim sizes in print preview before ordering proof copies.”
