What BookGist.ai content rights authors need to know

BookGist.ai content rights authors are designed so you retain full copyright while granting a limited license for AI-generated summaries; we prioritize clear terms, attribution, and author control.

When you submit a book, BookGist.ai generates short readable and audio summaries for a public library, but authors keep ownership. Over 3,500 authors have submitted titles and more than 120,000 readers access summaries monthly—helping authors gain discoverability without losing rights.

“I retained my copyright and gained new readers within weeks,” says Sarah Nguyen, indie novelist. Join at https://www.bookgist.ai/ to review submission terms and see how your rights are protected.

Submit Your Manuscript

Upload your book files and metadata. You remain the copyright holder; submission confirms you’re the rights owner and authorizes BookGist.ai to create a summary.

Grant a Limited Summary License

Review, Attribution & Publication

You’ll receive a preview of the AI-generated summary and clear attribution. Request edits or flag issues before the summary goes live to ensure accurate representation.

Control, Opt-Out & Updates

Authors can update submission preferences, revoke the summary license, or request removal. Platform policies ensure prompt response to rights or content disputes.
