# TAPE Engine > Tape Engine is an AI book publishing platform. Authors and small publishing teams use it to research a niche, write the manuscript, design the cover, produce the audiobook, and publish a finished book. Tape Engine replaces disconnected writing, design and audio tools with one book publishing workflow: market research, outline and manuscript generation, AI cover design, studio-grade audiobook production with voice cloning, unbranded PDF and DOCX exports, and launch execution. It also exposes a Model Context Protocol server so AI assistants can run publishing work directly. What Tape Engine is: an AI book and digital publishing platform for authors, coaches and creator businesses. What Tape Engine is not: it is not a video editor, not a general workflow automation suite, not a digital asset manager, and not a real time document collaboration tool. Primary topics: AI book writing, AI book cover generation, AI audiobook production, self publishing, KDP publishing, manuscript editing, book launch marketing. Pricing: $1 trial for 3 days, then $19.99 per month. Cancel any time during the trial. There is no free forever plan. ## For AI agents - [MCP server](https://tapeengine.com/api/mcp): Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint, Bearer API key or OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. - [OpenAPI spec](https://tapeengine.com/openapi.json): REST bridge for create_digital_product, generate_outline, write_book, generate_cover, export_pdf, get_job, list_projects, get_project. - [MCP manifest](https://tapeengine.com/.well-known/mcp.json): Server discovery manifest. - [Plugin manifest](https://tapeengine.com/.well-known/ai-plugin.json): ChatGPT plugin manifest. - [Full agent docs](https://tapeengine.com/llms-full.txt): Tools, auth and workflow. ## Pages - [Home](/): Publish your first book in days, not months. - [Demo](/demo): See the publishing workflow in action. - [Marketplace](/marketplace): Hire vetted publishing experts, editors, designers, narrators, and marketers. - [Signals](/signals): Join campaigns, create content, track performance, and earn from real attention. - [Blog](/blog): Publishing insights, marketing strategies, and platform updates. - [Support](/support): Help center, documentation, and contact options. - [Publish Book with AI](/publish-book-ai): Turn an idea into a structured manuscript using AI. - [Voice to Book](/voice-to-book): Dictate your book and convert speech into formatted prose. - [Voice Cloning](/voice-cloning): Clone your voice for audiobooks and narration. - [Audiobook Engine](/audiobook-engine): Produce studio-grade audiobooks with AI and human review. - [Conversation Writing](/conversation-writing): Collaborative writing and editing tools. - [Examples](/examples): Sample books, covers, and launch assets. - [Get Started](/get-started): Onboarding options and plan selection. - [Contact](/contact): Sales and partnership inquiries. ## Optional - [Privacy Policy](/privacy-policy) - [Terms & Conditions](/terms-conditions) - [Earnings Disclaimer](/earnings-disclaimer)
