Quillhelm
For indie authors

You wrote the book. Now take the helm.

Quillhelm reads your manuscript and turns it into a month of marketing: quote cards, pins, posts, emails and Amazon ads, all in your own words. You approve each one. It does the rest.

The hard part

Writing the book was hard. Selling it shouldn't take a second job.

Most indie authors juggle five apps, a spreadsheet and a guilty feeling about not posting enough. Quillhelm puts the whole launch in one place and does the heavy lifting from the book you already wrote.

Why I built it
“I spent my Navy career as a Boatswain's Mate, keeping a ship on course. When I started publishing my own books, I learned that writing them was the easy part. Quillhelm is the tool I wish I'd had: one place to steer every launch.”
Raffiel Cooke, founder and indie author

Questions authors ask

Will it post without asking me?

No. Every post waits for your OK. You can approve a whole day with one tap.

Does it write fake quotes from my book?

No. Quote lines are pulled word for word from your manuscript, with the chapter they came from.

Is my manuscript safe?

Your book stays yours. It's used only to build your marketing, and it's never sold or shared.

Can it upload my book to Amazon for me?

Not yet. Amazon doesn't let outside apps upload to KDP. Quillhelm gets everything ready so publishing takes minutes.

What if I only have a Kindle edition?

That works. Paste your Amazon link and Quillhelm finds the rest.
