Stanford research: stories beat facts cold. Your audience remembers a narrative arc; they forget a feature list.

Princeton fMRI studies: when a story lands, the listener's brain activity literally synchronizes with the teller's. Facts don't do this. It's the neural basis of “they get me.”

The #1 reason books fail isn't quality — it's distribution. Algorithms reward accounts that post three to five times a week, every week. One trailer on a quiet account is invisible before it starts.
MakeTrailer reads your book and turns it into a content runway — so you can show up consistently across BookTok, Bookstagram, Pinterest, and Facebook groups without marketing becoming a second job.
Monthly active users across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. The audience is there — the question is whether you're showing up.
higher profit for campaigns with a recurring character.
For authors, that character is your protagonist — the face readers recognize across every post, reel, and cover. The reason they say oh, it's the one about before they remember the title. Same effect that built Duolingo's owl into a billion-impression presence on TikTok alone.

Spek is your ghost writer — he tries to bring out your natural voice, not replace it.
Ghost writer
Hey! It's Luke
My dad spent years writing a book. He poured experience and personal discovery into every page. When I tried to help him market it, I realised how difficult that was — but also how important.
I've always loved a good story. Books, comics, anime, Broadway — format didn't matter, getting lost in another world did. That's what drew me to screenwriting at USC. I also loved building things, which is how I got obsessed with writing code.
MakeTrailer is the tool I wish I'd had — one that understands story, uses AI without losing the craft, and helps authors get their books in front of readers.
AI shouldn't do the creative work for you. It should be a tool to bring your original ideas to life.
Directing AI with creative control isn't easy. It's easy to hand over the reins and get slop. It's hard to steer it toward your book's actual voice and visual world — that takes iteration on long, specific prompts. That's what Spek is for.
If you've ever poured yourself into a book and wondered how anyone would find it, I built this for you.
