Amazon KDP's AI Disclosure Policy (What You Must Know)

Amazon allows AI books but asks you to disclose AI use. Here's what that means in practice.

AI-generated vs AI-assisted

Amazon distinguishes 'AI-generated' (AI created the text/images) from 'AI-assisted' (you wrote it, AI helped edit). You disclose AI-generated content during publishing.

How to disclose

During the KDP publishing flow there's a question about AI content. Answer honestly — disclosure is not shown publicly and doesn't block publishing.

Quality still rules

Disclosure isn't a free pass. Low-effort, duplicate, or misleading books still get removed. Edit and add real value.

FAQ

Will disclosing AI hurt my sales?

No — the disclosure isn't shown to customers. It's an internal compliance step.

Is AI-assisted editing reportable?

Amazon says AI-assisted (you author, AI edits) does not require disclosure; AI-generated content does.
