KDP AI Disclosure Requirements

KDP asks publishers to disclose AI-generated text, images, or translations during title setup while AI-assisted editing is treated differently. The decision should be made from the final book specifications rather than a generic web template.

The intended reader or decision context is specific: record which manuscript passages, cover assets, and translations were generated rather than merely edited. That scope keeps the project aligned with the book readers will actually receive.

Before production, record which manuscript passages, cover assets, and translations were generated rather than merely edited. Record these choices in the project brief so drafting, design, and metadata use the same assumptions.

This is especially important for KDP because a late edition change can affect pagination, cover dimensions, identifiers, listing fields, or distribution choices.

The operational approach is to keep a simple asset log and answer Amazon’s current disclosure questions accurately. Work from one approved source instead of editing disconnected exports.

Use explicit approval points for structure, manuscript, visual assets, edition settings, and metadata. That keeps speed from turning into version confusion.

A key risk is this: guessing at disclosure status or assuming an AI tool owns the compliance decision. Correct the source decision rather than patching only the final file.

For the final check, recheck the live KDP help language because platform definitions can change. KDP Previewer and the current Amazon help pages remain the authority for the submission surface.

BookWizard connects KDP AI Disclosure Requirements to the rest of KDP production: Autobook supports structured drafting, the print editor handles trim-aware pages, Cover Studio builds the wrap, and Export Studio packages PDF, EPUB, manifest.json, and checklist.md. Publish Studio prepares listing fields, while the Chrome extension uses preview-before-apply so you remain in control. Studio is $20/mo with 1M AI tokens, and a typical ~50-page pack can take about 45 minutes. BookWizard does not auto-publish and does not promise royalties.
