Can ChatGPT find your book?

In 2026, a growing share of book discovery happens through AI — not Google. Readers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini for “the best thriller set in Cornwall,” “an anxiety memoir like Matt Haig’s,” “a cookbook for seasonal British vegetables.” Most indie authors have no idea whether their book surfaces in those answers. We’ll tell you, with a live retrieval test against the real web — not training data.

What we do in ~30 seconds

Run a live web search for “[your book title] by [author]” — is anything being found beyond your Amazon page?
Search “best [your genre] books 2026” — note which titles are currently being recommended (and whether yours is one of them).
Check the peer-set retrieval pattern for books similar to your closest comp title.
Score your AI-discovery readiness out of 100 with the top 3 fixes to run this week, emailed to you as a keepable report.

No payment. No upsell spam. How we handle your data: privacy policy.
