FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Narrate Book Chapters:

What do I need to prepare before a book enters the queue?

Choose the manuscript and shared handoff folders, then place a matching audio brief beside each cleared book. Your brief names the chapters, voice, pace, and any pronunciation notes.

Can I choose a specific narration voice?

Yes. Choose an approved voice in the brief and map it to an available voice. A gap note in the handoff folder tells your coordinator if the voice cannot be matched.

What happens if a chapter fails to render or upload?

A failed passage prompts a retry. If rendering or upload still fails, your handoff list names the unfinished chapter for your coordinator.

Can I publish the chapter files directly?

Your publisher reviews the recordings and handles any marketplace requirements before release. The handoff provides numbered chapter MP3s and a list of links.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
