Speech-to-Print™ publishing that captures your wisdom and expertise in a remarkably human book — in a single weekend.
For experts, entrepreneurs & professionals
Founding price for the first 100 authors · $97
Most experts, founders and professionals spend a career learning what others would pay to know… but they still struggle to put it into words.
The blank page and blinking cursor are the death of many busy professionals who want to write a book.
You’re running a business or in a fast-paced career. You spend so much time being an expert that you don’t have time to sit down and write about it.
You know the material cold… but then you stare at a blinking cursor and your mind goes blank.
Yes, you could hire someone else to write your book. But that would cost tens of thousands of dollars… and most of a year, and it still might not sound like you.
LLMs like Claude or GPT write for you… but they also hallucinate, invent things you didn’t say, and make you sound like everyone else.
With standard AI tools, you have to understand how to prompt them correctly. It can feel like a full-time job to write a story that isn’t full of slop, hallucinations and averaged-out text.
Aldus flips the model by interviewing you instead. It asks you the important questions, guides you to go deeper, and builds your book from your answers.

Aldus Speech-to-Print™
That means zero slop. If you didn’t say it, it doesn’t go in your book.
In just about 10–20 hours of talking, you’ll go from first conversation to finished manuscript. You can finish in a weekend.
No blank page. Aldus interviews you out loud, with real questions and follow-ups, the way a great collaborator would.
Your spoken words become a typeset book, in your voice. Structure emerges from the conversation, so you never need an outline.
You hold the pen. Read every chapter, rework any line, and nothing ships without your yes.
From first conversation to published.
Our founding authors created their books entirely in Aldus. Their books ship worldwide Feb 2, 2027.
Yes, the last two are ours. We made our own books with Aldus before asking anyone else to.
Your book won’t hit stores without support and feedback from the team at New Wave Press.
Our publishing team is available via email to help you shape the book exactly how you want it, and get the voice exactly right.
Before your book goes out, the New Wave Press team reviews it with you: expert feedback on making it as successful as possible, and help planning your launch.

Proof the process works.
That’s true — when AI writes from a prompt, it writes from its own patterns, and everyone gets the same voice. Aldus doesn’t write from a prompt. It writes from hours of you, recorded: your stories, your phrasing, your rhythms, captured in guided interviews. The source material is your actual voice, our systems are built to preserve it, and you approve every chapter before it’s final. If a page doesn’t sound like you, it gets rewritten until it does.
It’s the studio’s working model of how you sound on the page — built from hours of your recorded interviews. The system studies your actual speech: the words you reach for, your sentence rhythms, how you tell a story, your humor, the phrases you repeat without noticing. From that, it drafts a sample chapter. You read it, mark what’s you and what isn’t, and the fingerprint is refined and locked before the manuscript is written. Every chapter after that is measured against it — and every edit you make in the Editing Room sharpens it further. The longer you talk, the more precisely the book sounds like you.
Perfect — you don’t need either. There’s no blank page anywhere in the process. Structure emerges from your interviews; the studio finds the book inside the conversation. If you can talk about what you know, you can make this book.
About 10–20 hours, all in, from zero to completed book — a weekend of talking, or a few relaxed sessions at your pace. Compare that to a minimum of 9–12 months for ghostwritten work, or 2–3 years for traditional publishing. And unlike either of those, you keep complete control the whole way.
You do. Your rights, your files, your royalties, your platform — always. You can export everything and leave at any time. The book is an asset you own, not a license you rent.
The $97 founding reward is for the first 100 authors who back us on Kickstarter. It includes lifetime access to Aldus Studio for one book, plus cover design, printing and distribution. It’s a one-time payment. Once the campaign closes on November 30, Aldus moves to its regular price of $99/month.
Yes — because we tell them, proudly, on the copyright page: spoken by the author, set by the studio, approved chapter by chapter by the person on the cover. Full transparency means no one can ever “expose” you. Your credibility is protected by honesty, and the words are yours either way.
A book is the most durable authority asset you can own. It’s what you hand a prospect instead of a business card, the reason a podcast books you, the thing that makes you the obvious choice before a sales call even starts. Unlike a post that disappears in a day, your book works for you for years — opening doors to your ideal customer while you sleep. For experts and founders, the book isn’t the product; the authority is, and everything that authority brings with it.
