Bring Your Book to Listeners


Audiobooks let people enjoy your book during commutes, workouts and daily routines. We help you select a narrator whose voice suits your genre and characters, then manage recording, editing, proofing and mastering.

Finished files are prepared to the technical requirements of major audiobook distributors, including chapter files, opening and closing credits and a retail sample. Each platform reviews and approves audiobooks independently.

Audiobook Production Services: Common Questions

How long is an audiobook?

As a rough guide, about 9,000 to 10,000 words produce one finished hour of audio.

Can I narrate it myself?

Yes. We can edit and master audio you record, if it meets basic recording quality.

Who owns the recording?

Your agreement sets out ownership and any narrator usage terms before recording starts.
