Hi. Anyone heard of Booksonix?
I am in pre-publish stage with Matador, and have learnt that their 'press releases' are generated from the aforementioned software. It seems the manuscript is 'scanned' and then the program spits out a release.
I was astounded! It is better than my rear cover blurb (agree I am not doing myself any favours there).
Is the day of the hand-crafted manuscript dead?

"Our AIs [press release] are generated automatically using booksonix software. This allows us to streamline the information we provide to booksellers and produce industry standard, high-quality AIs which can be disseminated quickly and digitally through established trade channels."
I could quite easily have misunderstood 'generated automatically' but it does seem crystal clear to me.
