Choosing a tool
Which KDP planning tool should I use?
KDP Sales Estimator
Use this when you want a broad, low-confidence monthly-sales range from a manually entered amazon.com Books or Kindle BSR. It is best for rough demand checks and niche prioritization, not exact sales.
KDP Royalty Calculator
Use this before profit planning to estimate royalty per sale for an eBook, paperback, or hardcover with editable price, delivery, printing, and royalty assumptions.
KDP Monthly Profit Estimator
Use this to combine royalty, sales assumptions, ad spend, software, design/editing, and other monthly costs into a planning scenario. Manual sales input is the most direct mode.
