Common questions

Questions worth asking before you start.

  • Is Publiscout only for KDP?

    Yes. Every signal, scorecard, and workflow is built around the Amazon KDP ecosystem. Other marketplaces are not supported today.

  • Does it replace manual research?

    It removes the busywork — pulling, normalizing, scoring — so you can spend your time on the decisions. It will not write your book or guarantee a result.

  • Where does the data come from?

    Publiscout combines first-party crawled book data with third-party providers for keyword and search-volume signals. Each metric carries its source and availability so you can trust what you see.

  • Can teams use Publiscout?

    Yes — Business plans include workspace invitations, shared selections, and billing-manager roles. Larger custom setups are handled on Enterprise.

  • Can I start without a subscription?

    Yes. The Free tier lets you explore core surfaces. Paid upgrades open Stripe Checkout when prices are configured.
