What Nueel is
Nueel is a browser-based studio for turning finished manuscripts into print and ebook files for self-publishing. It accepts Word documents and Markdown while retaining structure such as headings and italics. Authors can choose among 20 book designs, adjust measurements, and save themes for reuse. Exports include print-ready PDF, EPUB, and Word files, with checks for requirements from Amazon KDP, Lulu, B&N Press, Apple Books, Google Play Books, PublishDrive, and IngramSpark. Editing tools provide consistency checks, typography substitutions, and chapter readability analysis; that analysis supports English only. Visitors can preview a first chapter in 12 designs without an account or payment details. The studio runs in a browser on Mac, Windows, Linux, or Chromebook, and editing, pagination, and export can work offline after loading. Manuscripts sync to an account with version history and automatic backups. The whole studio is $104.25, paid once as a launch price, normally $139, with a 14-day refund period.
