πŸ“Š How Credits Are Calculated

Credits are based on word count, not page count. Page estimates assume standard trade book formatting (~300 words/page, 11-12pt body text, standard margins).

Your actual word count is calculated when you upload your PDF. You'll see the exact credit cost before processing begins. Documents with unusually dense formatting may contain more words per page than standard estimates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from Indexia?
IndexForge uses Claude Opus 4.5 (the most advanced reasoning AI), processes locally so your manuscript never touches our servers, offers simple pack pricing instead of confusing per-token rates, and supports multi-volume series indexing.
Do you store my manuscript?
No. Your files never leave your computer. IndexForge uses the File System Access API to process everything locally. We never see, upload, or store your content.
Do credits expire?
No! Your credits never expire. Use them whenever you need, at your own pace.
Can I index a multi-volume series?
Yes! Our batch processing mode lets you upload multiple volumes and generate a unified index with cross-references spanning all books.
What export formats are available?
You can export your index as PDF (formatted and ready to print), Word (.docx) for editing, XML for professional typesetting software like InDesign and Cindex, or plain text (.txt) for maximum compatibility.
What if processing fails?
We use a reservation systemβ€”credits are only deducted after successful processing. If something fails, your credits are automatically returned.
