It delivers a first design concept within 1–3 business days, works to a 14-day overall delivery window, offers unlimited revisions, and includes the layered source file in every package — a combination most studios either omit or charge separately for. ## What You Get - **eBook Cover ($199):** Custom front cover designed for digital retailers (KDP, Apple Books, Kobo). Includes unlimited revisions, full copyright ownership, and the layered PSD or AI source file. - **Print-Ready Cover ($299):** Full print wrap covering front, spine, and back, delivered in versions for paperback, hardcover, and audiobook. All three formats in one package — no per-format upsells. - **Custom Illustrated Cover ($449):** Hand-illustrated cover for authors who need original artwork rather than stock compositing. - **Children's Book Illustrations (from $49 per illustration):** Custom illustration work most cover-only studios decline or price far higher. - **Animated Book Covers:** Looping animation delivering GIF, MP4, and MOV with text animation, character movement, music, and sound effects in 7 days. Requires the source file from an existing cover. **The vendor publishes no price for this** — you must request a quote. - **Corporate/author branding:** Author logo and brand style guide work is sold alongside the cover packages. Licensed stock images and font costs are included in the package price rather than billed on top. ## Who It's For - **Authors who want no AI in their cover:** BookCoverHub states that every cover is made by human designers in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop and that it uses no AI-generated artwork at any stage, and it maintains a dedicated AI policy page. That is a firm, vendor-made commitment rather than silence on the subject. - **Authors who want the source file:** The layered PSD/AI file is included at every tier. Across this category, source files are usually withheld or sold as a paid add-on, and their absence is what later blocks animated covers and self-service tweaks. - **Print-plus-digital authors:** The $299 package covers paperback, hardcover, and audiobook formats at once. **Pricing:** eBook cover $199; print-ready wrap (front, spine, back) $299; custom illustrated cover $449; children's illustrations from $49 each. All custom packages include unlimited revisions, source files, and full copyright ownership. No recurring subscription fees. Animated cover pricing is not published. ## Strengths - **Source files and full rights included as standard:** Full copyright ownership plus the layered working file, at every tier and at no extra charge — the opposite of the category norm, where studios retain ownership, grant only a licence, or sell the PSD separately. - **Explicit, vendor-stated no-AI policy:** Backed by its own AI policy page, which matters to romance and fantasy authors screening out AI imagery. Several competitors reserve the right to use generative AI by default and disclose it only in their terms. - **Unlimited revisions with the first concept in 1–3 business days:** Fast enough to iterate inside a launch schedule, against a 14-day overall delivery window. ## Limitations - **Prices roughly doubled in 2026:** The eBook cover moved from $99 to $199 and the print wrap from $199 to $299. The studio is no longer the sub-$200 outlier it was; it now sits at the entry end of the normal custom-studio band. - **The money-back guarantee is narrower than the badge suggests:** The vendor's own wording ties the 100% refund to being unhappy with *the initial design*, not to dissatisfaction at any point. No refund window, evaluation criteria, or artwork-forfeiture terms are published on any page reachable at this check — get the terms in writing before paying. - **No premade line is listed any more:** The shop's product catalog carries only custom services (cover packages, illustrations, animated covers, logo design). The $40–$150 premade range this listing previously described could not be found. Authors wanting a ready-made cover should look elsewhere. - **Animated cover pricing is unpublished:** Every other service carries a public price; this one requires a quote, and it also requires you to already hold the cover's source file. - **Single studio, not a marketplace:** You cannot browse individual designer portfolios or pick a designer. Work is assigned internally, and no per-designer style samples are published, so the visual direction of the first draft is hard to predict. - **Thin independent review signal:** Trustpilot carries roughly 27 reviews at about 4/5 — positive, but too small a corpus to lean on. ## Alternatives Reedsy's curated designer marketplace lets you browse individual portfolios and pick a designer, at $300–$2,000 and a platform-wide average of about 66 days from acceptance to delivery — far slower, far dearer, far more control. Miblart is the closest direct comparison, starting at $200 with a similarly clear revision policy and its own no-AI stance. For a ready-made cover at a lower price, The Book Cover Designer and Rocking Book Covers sell exclusive premades.
