Upload your flat book cover and see it as a real 3D book. Show a hardcover standing on a studio background, a paperback lying on a wooden table, a stack of copies for a launch post or a book on a shelf in a bookshop. Pick the format and the angle, compare a few, and use the best one on your Amazon page, your newsletter or your ads.
How the AI 3D book cover mockup generator works
A flat cover image is hard to sell from. Readers respond better to a book they can picture holding. Upload your cover and the AI places it on a real-looking book with thickness, a spine and natural shadow.
It shows the front cover as you supplied it. It does not design a back cover or invent spine text. Check the title and author spelling against your file.
1
Upload a flat cover
A PNG or JPG of the front cover only.
2
Choose a mode
Single book, a shelf or desk scene, a stack or row, or your own description.
3
Pick format and angle
Hardcover to spiral-bound, upright, flat or floating.
4
Edit, upscale or animate
Rerun for another angle, upscale the best result or make a short video.
Book mockup shots to try
Authors use several shots across a launch.
1
Single book
The classic 3D cover for your sales page. Upright with the spine visible, flat, or floating.
2
In a scene
On a bookshelf, in a bookshop display, on a nightstand or on a writer's desk.
3
Stacks and rows
Three copies stacked, five in a row, or an open book with the cover behind. Good for launch announcements.
4
Your own description
Anything else, such as a book on a beach towel or in a gift box.
Tips for a better book mockup
Use the largest cover file you have and make sure the title is readable at thumbnail size. A busy cover with tiny text may lose detail in a mockup.
This tool shows the front only. For spine, back cover and print specs, use KDP's or your printer's templates. A mockup is not a print proof.
