AAS Premium Migration and Rescue Services

Turn scattered writing into a usable author workspace.

This service is for authors who already have material, but it is disorganized, incomplete, fragmented, outdated, or difficult to work with. Instead of starting over, they get their existing writing recovered, cleaned up, restructured, and placed into AI Authors Studio in a way that makes the project manageable again.

Messy Manuscript Import

For authors whose book exists across many files, formats, or versions.

Examples:

• chapters in separate Word files
• notes in Google Docs and text files
• old PDF exports with no editable master
• partial manuscript in one file and revisions in another
• content pasted from email, notes apps, or cloud folders

What you do:

• collect source files from the author
• identify likely main manuscript files
• combine fragmented sections
• preserve as much text and structure as possible
• load the material into AAS as a usable project

Deliverable:

• one organized AAS project instead of a pile of disconnected files

Scattered-Document Recovery

For authors who have a project spread across folders and can no longer tell what goes where.

Examples:

• research in one folder
• outline in another
• draft chapters on a hard drive
• revision notes in comments and emails
• character notes, timelines, and marketing ideas separated from the manuscript

What we do:

• inventory materials
• group items by function: manuscript, outline, notes, research, extras
• reconnect support materials to the correct project
• label and organize content into a usable workspace
• create clarity around what belongs to the book and what does not

Deliverable:

• one coherent working environment where the author can actually move forward

Backlist Organization

For authors with multiple published or unpublished books that need order.

Examples:

• several books across many years
• older manuscripts with inconsistent naming
• books, revisions, bonus materials, and marketing docs mixed together
• no standardized project structure across titles

What we do:

• organize books by title, series, category, or status
• separate active vs archived projects
• standardize naming and structure
• prepare projects for revision, re-release, repackaging, or translation
• create a cleaner long-term author library inside AAS

Deliverable:

• an orderly backlist the author can navigate and maintain

Current Limitations of this Service:

1) Migration work will be limited to AAS customers of either our subscription service at the Studio Level or the Studio Level AAS Plugin

2)  All migration work for now will be in English. As we grow and add resources we will also do the work in other languages

3) Since we are just launching AAS this Spring we will have limited bandwidth to work on migrations for the next few months. It would be best to send us an email first to mke@mkettingtonbooks.com to make sure we can support your migration now.

4) Migrations are priced for a certain number of hours–which are stated in the product when you purchase it. We will add custom migration options later on.

5) All migration is a good faith service. If we can’t do it we will tell you why but we will still charge for our time in that case.

The Process to get this Done

A) The first step is for the customer to purchase a Studio subscription to AAS or install the Studio Plugin version.

B) Next we need your user id and password to get into your AAS user environment.

C) We will need you to post all of your text and image files in a location to be provided later after you order this service.

D) Then we will work on loading your files into your AAS account. We may have questions for clarifications during the process

E) When we have reached the number of hours paid for we will send you an email on project status and how many more hours we will need to complete the job. (If not done) There might also be files we can’t migrate and we will explain that too.
