Make the series yours
Title, synopsis, genres, cover, and vertical scrolling as the reading mode. Nothing here asks how the art was made.

Upload the files you already have. They are ordered by filename, you can move any of them, and it costs no credits.

Publish, and let people follow it
One review, then the episode is live as a single scroll — with followers, comments and a link of its own.

Your art, uploaded, unaltered
Uploading pages you drew costs nothing — no credits, no generation step. Put them in scroll order and the episode reads exactly the way you made it. A series drawn somewhere else and brought here to publish is a first-class series, not a special case.
The part that is not drawing
Readers follow a series, comment on episodes and hear when the next one lands, without you chasing anybody. You keep the rights to everything you upload, and you can take a series down whenever you want.
What it costs
One AI-drawn page is 10 credits (about $0.25), so a 20-page chapter comes to about 200 credits (about $4.99). New accounts start with 50 free credits — enough for your first 5 pages. Uploading art you drew yourself costs nothing, and reading is always free. See the full pricing.

Questions people ask
Does uploading my own art cost anything?
No. Uploading pages spends no credits at all. Credits exist only for AI generation, which you never have to touch.
Do I keep the rights to episodes I publish here?
Yes. You retain ownership of everything you upload. Publishing grants Inkroost the licence it needs to store and display the work while it is here, and taking a series down ends that.
Can I keep publishing on the platforms I already use?
Yes. Nothing here is exclusive, so the same episode can run on Inkroost and anywhere else at the same time.
What file sizes and formats do you take?
PNG and JPG pages, ordered by filename on upload, with 800 by 1200 pixels as the recommended page size. Each page can also carry alt text and a transcript so screen readers and search engines can read the episode.
What does a chapter cost in dollars?
One AI-drawn page costs 10 credits (about $0.25), so a 20-page chapter comes to 200 credits (about $4.99). Uploading art you drew yourself costs nothing. Credit packs start at $4.99.
