Give your book a voice.
Yours.
You've written a book you're proud of. Now let it reach the people who listen instead of read.
Available on every major audiobook platform.
Your ideas, nesting in more minds
We help you record your own audiobook, in your own voice, and take care of everything after.
Coaching
Never recorded before? No problem. We'll prepare you, warm you up and coach your delivery so you sound like you, on a really good day.
Studio recording
Record in our Gold Coast studio over two or three focused days. Coming from interstate? Make it a working holiday.
Editing and mastering
We remove the stumbles, breaths and page turns, and master every chapter to the platforms' strict technical standards.
Publishing
We set up your accounts and publish to Audible, Apple Books, Spotify, Kobo, Google Play and more. You get on with promoting your book.
1. Prepare
We read your manuscript, plan the sessions and send you everything you need to arrive ready.
2. Record
Two or three days in the studio, with us guiding you line by line.
3. Polish and publish

Why your own voice?
Listeners don't just want your words. They want you. Hearing an author tell their own story builds a trust that no hired narrator or AI voice can match.
Do I have to narrate it myself?
That's the point. Listeners connect with an author's own voice, and we'll coach you so you sound your best.
I've never recorded anything. Is that a problem?
Not at all. Most of our authors haven't. Preparation and coaching are part of the service.
I'm not on the Gold Coast. Can I still do this?
Yes. Many authors travel up for the recording days and make a working holiday of it.
Where will my audiobook be sold?
On all the major platforms, including Audible, Apple Books, Spotify, Kobo and Google Play Books.
