Five simple steps to transform your ideas into a beautifully illustrated book — powered by AI

01

Create or Upload Your Story

Bring your story to pintame however works best for you. Upload an existing manuscript in EPUB, PDF, TXT, or DOCX — or write directly in the built-in editor. Don't have a finished story yet? Use our AI co-writer to turn a simple idea into a fully fleshed-out narrative. Whether it's a 5-page children's book or a 300-page novel, pintame handles it all.

  • Upload manuscripts in EPUB, PDF, TXT, or DOCX format
  • Write your story from scratch using the built-in editor
  • Use AI to generate a complete story from a brief idea or outline

02

Choose Your Style

Decide the format that best suits your story — a classic illustrated book with full-page artwork, or a dynamic comic book with panels and speech bubbles. Then choose from a growing library of art styles, each crafted for different genres and moods. Every illustration in your book is rendered in a single, cohesive visual language.

  • Illustrated Book — full-page artwork alongside your text
  • Comic Book — panel layouts with speech bubbles and dynamic framing
  • Watercolor, Digital Painting, Heroic Comic, Storybook, and more
  • Each style is fine-tuned for a specific genre and mood

Build Your Story World

Every great illustrated book needs consistent visuals. Describe your characters, key locations, and important objects — or let pintame's AI read your story and extract them automatically. Either way, the AI builds a persistent visual identity for each element, so your characters look the same on every page.

  • Describe characters manually with text or upload reference photos
  • Let AI auto-extract characters, locations, and objects from your story
  • Define locations — cozy bedrooms, epic landscapes, futuristic cities
  • AI ensures every element stays visually consistent across all illustrations
