General

Pooks.ai creates personalized, AI-generated books tailored specifically to you — your goals, interests, experience level, and learning style.

Most books begin generating immediately and are usually ready within 15–30 minutes. Larger orders (for example, full audiobook bundles) or peak-time load can take longer. We send an email notification when your book is ready — if you haven't received it after about 30 minutes, please check your spam folder and contact hello@pooks.ai with your order ID.

Yes — a free account is required to submit a personalization form, request a free sample, or place an order. Registration only takes a minute and no credit card is needed to sign up. You can also sign in with Google.

Very! We ask about your specific goals, challenges, experience level, preferred learning style, interests, and more. The AI writes every chapter specifically for you — not generic content with your name inserted.

We currently support 10 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Arabic, and Chinese.

A typical Pooks.ai book is around 150 pages (ebook) or 2-3 hours of audio for the audiobook version. The exact length depends on the category and your personalization choices.

Absolutely! You can create as many books as you like across any of our 12 categories. Each one is uniquely personalized to your answers.

A full Pooks.ai book contains 10 chapters plus an introduction and conclusion — all written specifically for you. Each chapter is approximately 2,000 words, making the complete book roughly 20,000–25,000 words (around 150 pages in PDF).

Short answer: the title generator sometimes produces a possessive-style title that includes the reader's first name (for example, "Maya's Trail Running Playbook"). If you'd prefer a title that does NOT include your name, enter a custom title on the Create page before generating and it will be used instead of the AI-generated title. If a generated title includes your name unexpectedly or you'd like it changed after generation, reply to your order email or contact hello@pooks.ai with your order ID and we can regenerate or apply a custom title for you. We're actively working to improve the title generator to avoid inconsistent name inclusion.

Yes! Once generated, the book is yours. You can read it, share it with friends, or keep it forever. The content was written specifically for you.

Once your book is generated you will receive an email notification with a link. You can also visit My Books (pooks.ai/my-books) at any time while logged in to view and download all your books. Ebook orders include a PDF and EPUB file; audiobook bundles additionally include an M4B file and a ZIP of individual MP3 chapter files.

Book generation normally takes 15–30 minutes (up to 45 for audiobook bundles during peak hours). If your order is still showing as "generating" after an hour, please contact hello@pooks.ai with your order ID. Include the email address on your account and the book title so we can check the generation queue and get your book to you promptly.

Once you submit the form your book enters the generation queue and the personalization answers are locked for that order. To get a book with different answers, simply create a new order for the same category — you can have as many books as you like. If your paid order has not started generating yet and you need to change something urgent, contact hello@pooks.ai as soon as possible with your order ID.

Yes — you can sign in with Google. On rare occasions Google may not return an email address and sign-in will fail; if that happens please use the standard registration form or contact hello@pooks.ai for help linking accounts.

Logged-in users can upload files (PDF, PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, ZIP, DOC/DOCX, TXT, CSV, XLSX). Uploaded files are private by default; admins can mark files public. Public files appear on the Public Files page and can be downloaded by anyone. Please avoid uploading sensitive personal data.

We use Cloudflare Turnstile on the registration form to block bots and automated signups while keeping the sign-up experience smooth for real people. It runs in the background most of the time and usually doesn't require solving a visible CAPTCHA. If you see the Turnstile widget, just complete the form normally — it helps protect accounts and keeps the site fast and reliable.
