Verdict
KDPEasy is the broader and cheaper subscription. At $19 a month, Starter bundles AI covers, a coloring book creator, journal layouts, puzzle creators, keyword research and a KDP file checker, and 10 free credits let you try it first. For a publisher running several kinds of low-content book, that breadth is hard to match, and BookIllustrationAI does not try to.
BookIllustrationAI costs more because it does one job start to finish: it generates the pages of a coloring book in one style and assembles the KDP interior. On Builder, $79 a month for 74 credits, a 40-design book plus its cover is 41 credits, so 1 full book a month with room for re-generations. Publisher’s 200 credits cover 4. KDPEasy publishes that a cover costs 5 credits but not what a coloring page costs, so its credits cannot be turned into a page count from its own site.
The practical test: if coloring books are the whole catalogue and your time goes into making pages, a dedicated generator earns the price gap. If coloring books are one product line among several, KDPEasy’s bundle is the better value. Other options are on the comparison hub.
Frequently asked questions
- How much does KDPEasy cost?
- As of 19 October 2026, KDPEasy lists three monthly plans: Starter at $19 with 35 credits, Pro at $49 with 100 credits, and Power User at $79 with 250 credits. Annual billing is advertised as "2 months free", and credit packs start at $7.50. New accounts get 10 free credits with no card, and work made with free credits carries a sample watermark.
- How many coloring pages do KDPEasy credits buy?
- KDPEasy publishes that one cover costs 5 credits, so Starter covers 7 covers a month. It does not publish what a coloring page costs in credits, so its plans cannot be turned into a page count from its own site. Test it with the 10 free credits before you plan a 50-page book around a plan.
- Is KDPEasy good for coloring books?
- It makes them: the coloring book creator generates AI line art in six styles, up to 100 pages, and exports a 300 DPI interior PDF at your KDP trim size with full commercial rights. Its site does not describe how it keeps one style across a whole book or whether blank backing pages are added for you, so check both in the free credits.
- How many coloring books does each BookIllustrationAI plan make?
- One credit generates one page or one cover, so a 40-design book with its cover is 41 credits. Builder ($79 a month) includes 74 credits: 1 full book a month, with 33 left for re-generations and edits. Publisher ($129 a month) includes 200: 4 full books. Starter ($39.99 a month) includes 29: a book of up to 28 designs plus its cover.
- Can I try BookIllustrationAI for free like KDPEasy?
- No. BookIllustrationAI has no free plan or trial: every plan is paid upfront. KDPEasy gives 10 free credits with a watermark. The free KDP tools on this site, such as the coloring page prompt generator and the KDP specs calculator, need no account.
- Which is better for KDP coloring books, KDPEasy or BookIllustrationAI?
- If coloring books are your whole catalogue, BookIllustrationAI: every page of a book is generated against one style reference, books run up to 120 pages, and the 300 DPI interior comes with blank backing pages added. If you also publish journals, planners and puzzle books, KDPEasy covers more ground for less money and adds keyword research and a KDP file checker.
