First book free. No card needed to write it.

A source-heavy practical guide

Separate the source material you need from files that are merely background. Then estimate the project fee, ingestion, writing and any voice work. If your project is primarily a story from your own direction, ImagineYourBook offers a manuscript-length planner and a fiction-and-nonfiction workflow to compare.

We make ImagineYourBook. This is a sourced buying guide, not an independent review or a hands-on test of every tool. Our method.

What changes the real project cost?

Budget beyond generated words

The published model includes a project fee as well as source ingestion and writing. A large research library can change the cost even when two projects have the same target book length.

Custom voice is another variable

Voice training and its generation surcharge affect the estimate. Bring-your-own-key options change the credit economics but introduce provider costs. Check the full route you intend to use.

Budget for your ImagineYourBook manuscript.

Start with your target length. Lyra uses one credit per 5,000 requested words, rounded up; Lyra Max uses three times the credits.

Draft-generation credits by requested length
  • 10,000 words
    Lyra2 credits
    Lyra Max6 credits
  • 40,000 words
    Lyra8 credits
    Lyra Max24 credits

Requested length is a target. Rewrites and other paid actions have their own costs. Competitor credits use different rules.

Your questions, answered

How much does Youbooks cost?

Its public offer combines subscriptions from €9.97 per month and credit packs from €5. The project estimate also depends on sources, writing and optional voice work.

Why is the Youbooks project fee important?

The published 9,000-credit project fee is separate from usage such as writing and source ingestion. Include it when estimating a book instead of dividing the plan’s credits by a target word count.

Does BYOK make Youbooks free?

No. A provider key changes the billing arrangement, not the fact that resources cost money. Check the eligible plan, credit discount and separate provider bill together.
