HOW CASOVER WORKS

Three services. Start where your book is now.

Manuscript feedback, launch preparation or market development for a book already on sale. Each service is a fixed price, a written scope and a delivery date. AI does the reading; Steve Castledine does the judging and checks every report before it reaches you. You receive reports and material ready to use, and you carry them out.
ONE SERVICE AT A TIME

From your enquiry to your completed reports.

01

Tell us where the book stands

Tell us about your book, its readers and your next goal. We will confirm which service fits.
02

Agree the scope

You receive the deliverables, exclusions, price, payment terms and delivery date in writing. Nothing is charged and no work starts until you have accepted it.
03

Provide the material

Send the manuscript, book information and any relevant listing or performance data requested for your service.
04

Steve does the work

AI reads and analyses the material. Steve Castledine directs that work, assesses the findings, decides what matters and gives each report a final check. How the AI is used is explained before you commission anything.
05

Open your reports and plans

PDFs that are yours to keep and a private Notion workspace you can use for 90 days. Questions about the reports are welcome whenever they come.
06

Decide what happens next

Use the recommendations, revise your plans or pause. There is no obligation to buy another service.

DELIVERY AND SUPPORT

AUTHOR CONTROL

You remain the publisher.

You keep your rights, files, accounts and royalties. You decide what to use, publish and spend, and make changes in your own accounts. Casover supplies advice and plans; it does not operate accounts, run campaigns or carry out implementation.
No one can guarantee sales, rankings or reviews, and we do not try. Every recommendation comes with the evidence behind it.
