Max Author Membership
Everything in Pro, plus GhostAI, VIP support, and a service credit that pays for the membership.
The membership pays for itself
Every Max Author Membership comes with a service credit equal to your membership fee. Use it toward any Leanpub Author Service or Marketing Package — TranslateAI, CourseAI, Publish on Amazon, GlobalAuthor bundles, or premium spots on The Shelf.
Lifetime Max comes with a $1999 service credit — enough to cover GlobalAuthor Standard entirely. You get the membership forever and a full publishing package. No monthly payments.
