# AI disclosure on KDP: what to answer

KDP asks about AI-generated text, images and translations. When the answer is yes, and when it is not.

When you publish, KDP asks whether the book contains AI-generated content, separately for text, images and translations.

## Generated or assisted?

- **AI-generated:** a tool produced the text, pictures or translation. This must be declared, even if you edited it a lot afterwards.
- **AI-assisted:** you wrote or drew it, and a tool only helped you edit, check or brainstorm. KDP does not ask you to declare this.

## Examples

| What happened | Text | Images |
| --- | --- | --- |
| A tool wrote the story and drew the pictures | Yes | Yes |
| You wrote the story, a tool drew the pictures | No | Yes |
| You wrote it, a tool fixed spelling | No | No |
| A program built puzzle grids, no AI model | No | No |

Translations are a separate question: if a tool translated the book, answer yes there too.

## How kdpbookai answers it for you

The export screen shows the three answers for your book, based on what was actually made with AI in it. If you imported your own manuscript, text is no. Puzzles built by a program are not AI images. If you rewrite a chapter with AI later, the answer changes.
