How it works
From synopsis to cover in three steps
Describe it
Genre, mood, title, author name. The eBook Cover preset sets 1600 x 2560 automatically.
Snappa generates it
A genre-true cover with your title and name rendered in clean, bookstore-ready type.
Refine it your way
Type what to change, or brush a spot that’s hard to describe. Moodier sky, bigger title, different palette.
Prompt
Cover for a cozy mystery called The Lighthouse Ledger by Nora Quist, foggy harbor, warm lamplight, serif title.
Genre-true
A cover that signals the shelf.
Readers pick genre first and title second, and they decide from art alone. Describe the book and Snappa composes in your genre’s visual language: moody for the thriller, warm for the romance, ornate for the fantasy.
Readers judge the shelf in a blink. Speak your genre’s language.
Title, subtitle, author. Clean, readable, and in order.
Readable type
Type that sells the title.
A cover is a title in costume. Snappa puts your title, subtitle, and author name on the cover clean and readable, with the hierarchy a cover needs.
Built to spec
Ready for every digital shelf.
Snappa makes digital covers, not print wraps, and owns that lane completely: the eBook Cover preset is Kindle’s exact 1600 x 2560, composed to stay legible at store-thumbnail size.
- Kindle-exact. 1600 x 2560, the 1:1.6 ratio Amazon wants.
- Store-thumbnail proof. Legible in search results.
A series readers can spot across a crowded store page.
Series
A shelf that looks like a series.
Book two should sell book one. Start book two from book one’s cover and every installment comes out recognizably related: same type system, same palette logic, new art.

The craft
What makes a cover sell
Win the search result
Most buyers first meet your book as a tiny thumbnail. If the title reads there, you’re in.
Match the shelf
A cover that fights its genre confuses browsers. Signal clearly, then be original inside it.
Let the type lead
Art sets the mood, but the title closes the sale. Give it the space and contrast it needs.
