Most books fail before the first word is written.
The wrong topic. A title nobody searches for. A draft that reads like a robot wrote it. Galley fixes the failure points in order: it checks real Amazon demand first, writes the manuscript in your voice, verifies every fact with a citation, and hands you KDP-ready files.
No credit card. The verdict takes about a minute.
Built on the publishing framework trusted by 2,000+ publishers.
THE PUBLISHING COMMUNITY
Weeks of research, still guessing
You compare keywords, second-guess the niche, and publish on hope. Hope is not a launch plan.
$1,000 to $1,500 before a single sale
Ghostwriter, editor, cover, description. The freelancer stack bills you long before the market votes.
A draft that reads like AI slop
Generic tools lose the plot after ten thousand words, and every chapter sounds like the same robot.
Galley was built to kill all three. In order.
How Galley works.
Get the verdict
Type a topic. Galley pulls live page-one data from Amazon and rules Enter, Caution, or Avoid using the same demand and competition checks working publishers run by hand.
Teach it your voice
Paste a few pages you have written. Galley extracts your rhythm, your register, and your habits, then drafts every chapter in them.
Watch it write, checked
Chapter by chapter with a running memory of the whole book, so nothing repeats and nothing contradicts. Every checkable claim is verified against a real source.
Export to press
One click: formatted DOCX, valid EPUB, seven keyword slots, category picks, a description that sells the book, and the disclosure checklist.

Every book starts with a verdict.
Before Galley writes a word, it runs the checks that separate books that rank from books that vanish: at least three page-one books selling under a 30,000 Best Sellers Rank, total results under 3,000, and a page one a new book can actually break into. Too competitive? One click generates ten tighter sub-niches and re-runs the checks.
We read the one-star reviews so your book fixes them.
Galley mines the negative reviews of the books already ranking and builds your outline to solve the exact complaints their readers left behind.
Sounds like you on your best day.
Galley studies how you actually write: sentence rhythm, formality, the words you never use. Then a ruthless edit pass strikes the machine tells.
- delve
- tapestry
- in today's fast-paced world
- unlock your potential
- In conclusion
If a sentence smells like a robot, it does not survive the edit.
The only book writer whose facts you can check.
Every statistic, study, and date in your manuscript is verified against a real source and numbered. Readers get a references page. You get a book you can stand behind.
A 2024 study found that readers of nonfiction titles are 43 percent more likely to finish a book that cites its sources[3], a pattern consistent across categories.

Unverifiable claims do not get hedged into your book. They get removed.

KDP Niche Research
Frequently asked.
A chatbot has no memory of your book, no market data, and no export. You end up as the project manager, the editor, and the fact checker. Galley is the whole desk: verdict first, a running memory of every chapter, verified citations, and KDP-ready files at the end.
No. Galley drafts in a style profile learned from your own writing, then a strict edit pass removes the phrases and patterns that give machine writing away. If a sentence smells like a robot, it does not survive.
No. You need a topic and, ideally, a few pages of anything you have written so Galley can learn your voice. If you have nothing, start with a preset voice and refine it later.
Amazon KDP asks publishers to disclose AI-generated content at upload. Galley builds the disclosure checklist into every publish kit so you declare it correctly and publish with confidence.
The best possible outcome before writing a word. One click generates ten tighter sub-niches with the phrases real buyers search, and re-runs the checks until you find a page one you can win.
The verdict takes about a minute. A validated topic to KDP-ready files runs in hours, not months, and you can step away while Galley writes.
Publish like the people who do this for a living.
Run the niche check. Get the verdict. Then let Galley take it start to shelf.
