AI creates the draft. We refine it into a clean, publication-ready index.
Delivered in ~48 hours. No cleanup needed.
Includes human review and revisions
A solid index takes 10 to 20+ hours of careful work, often more if you are learning as you go.
It is easy to do poorly: vague entries, wrong page numbers, and terms that do not help readers find what they need.
Raw AI tools often produce messy, repetitive output: duplicates, inconsistent phrasing, and noise you still have to untangle.
After finishing a manuscript, most authors do not want one more big project. They want the book finished and the index handled.
We use a hybrid process: AI produces a strong first pass, then a human reviews it, merging duplicates, tightening wording, and fixing structure so it reads like a real index.
The final deliverable is publication-ready: consistent hierarchy, clean entries, and cross-references where they belong.
You don’t have to fix anything.
A simple, structured process, designed to deliver a publication-ready index without back-and-forth.

Done-for-you indexing
You can generate an index. Or you can get one you don’t have to fix.
I’m Randall Kanna Franson, a published author and engineer.
I’ve published with O’Reilly and self-published two additional books. I know how much work it takes to get a manuscript finished, and how frustrating indexing is at the very end.
I built CreateMyBookIndex to solve that problem. Instead of spending hours cleaning up messy AI output or doing it manually, you get a clean, structured index that’s ready to ship.
Used by authors who want a professional index without doing it themselves.
Simple, fixed pricing. No surprises.
