Amazon Ads for KDP authors Stop paying for clicks that don’t sell books.

Accelerads finds the words readers actually type on Amazon, builds the campaigns for your book and every week tells you what to keep, what to exclude and how much to bid. You always know whether your ads make you money.

We are opening access to small groups of authors.

  • 7 Amazon marketplaces
  • KDP royalties checked against the official pages
  • No Amazon password required

If you publish on KDP and run ads, this has probably happened to you.

“You picked keywords on gut feeling, and your campaigns spend on searches that have nothing to do with your book.”
With Accelerads: Start from real reader searches on Amazon, with a score that tells you which ones actually matter.
“Your ACOS is 70% and you can’t tell whether that’s a disaster or normal for your price.”
With Accelerads: The calculator gives you your break-even ACOS, with real royalties, VAT and printing costs.
“Every week you open the search term report in Excel, and an hour later you still haven’t decided anything.”
With Accelerads: Upload it and get a list of actions, each with its reason spelled out.
“The console says you’re losing money, but nobody counts your Kindle Unlimited reads.”
With Accelerads: True ACOS combines spend, sales and KENP from your KDP report: you see your real profit.

One path, from book to profit.

Each tool hands its data to the next. No copying by hand, no ten spreadsheets open.

Enter your book once: formats, prices, pages and marketplaces. From here Accelerads calculates royalties and how much you can spend.

Accelerads tools for your books’ Amazon Ads

KW Finder

The words readers actually type.

Enter your book’s topic. Accelerads explores the searches readers make on Amazon, with variations and modifiers, and returns keywords ranked by strength and grouped by theme.

  • US, CA, UK, DE, IT, FR, ES marketplaces, each in its own language.
  • Recommended match type for every keyword: exact, phrase or broad.
  • Clean Excel export, plus Markdown and CSV.

Calculator

Know how much you can spend, before you spend it.

Ebook and print royalties, VAT in European marketplaces, printing costs, Kindle Unlimited reads. Out comes your break-even ACOS and a starting bid, using KDP values checked against the official pages.

And since readers who click the ebook often buy the paperback, you can set your sales mix: the number that matters is the combined one.

Campaign Builder

All your book’s campaigns, in one file.

Pick the book, a structure (auto, exact, phrase and broad) and the keywords from your list. Accelerads distributes them, adds negatives so your campaigns don’t compete with each other, and sets the bids. You download a file to upload to Amazon Ads with bulk operations.

Search terms

Monday’s report, already decided.

Upload the search term report and the bulk file from the console. You get suggested actions, each with its reason: which searches to exclude, which to promote to exact, which bids to raise or lower. Tick the ones you agree with and download the changes file.

The history shows you, week after week, whether wasted spend is going down.

True ACOS

Your real profit, not the console’s.

The Ads console only counts sales attributed to the ad. Upload your KDP royalty report and Accelerads matches it to your books: sales across all formats, KENP pages, ad spend. A color tells you at a glance whether that month made you money.

Built for people who publish books, not people who sell blenders.

Amazon seller tools are designed for products with a fixed margin. A book has different formats, different royalties, European VAT, printing costs and Kindle Unlimited reads. Accelerads starts from there.

Every number comes with a plain-language explanation, the Training walks you through step by step, and the interface is available in English and Italian. If a KDP value isn’t verified, we tell you instead of guessing.

Questions we get asked a lot.

Do I need to connect my Amazon account?

Not today: you upload the reports you download from the Amazon Ads console and the KDP portal, and download the files to upload. We are working on a direct connection with the official Amazon Ads API: it will be optional, it will go through Amazon’s consent page and it will never give us your password.

Where do the keywords come from?

From the searches readers actually make on Amazon, in the marketplace and department you choose. Accelerads ranks them by strength and groups them by theme. Once you connect your Amazon Ads account, you’ll be able to compare them with the keywords recommended by the official Amazon Ads API.

Does it work for Amazon.co.uk and the European marketplaces?

Yes: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, France, Spain. The calculator accounts for the VAT included in European prices.

Does it work for ebooks, paperbacks and hardcovers?

Yes, each format has its own royalties and costs. You can also estimate the effect of Kindle Unlimited reads.

Does it make sense with a small budget, like $5 a day?

Yes, even more so: with a small budget every wasted click hurts more. The calculator gives you the maximum sustainable bid for your price, and the search term analysis shows you right away where you are losing money.

How much time does it take?

The first setup, your book and a first search, takes a few minutes. After that, one check a week is enough: upload the report, read the suggested actions and download the changes file.

Can I use it if I’ve never run Amazon Ads?

It’s the best way to start: the Training takes you from your first book to your first campaign, with the starting bid already calculated.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Each account only sees its own books, searches and reports. Report files you upload are deleted after 90 days; only the extracted numbers remain. You can delete your account at any time from your profile. Details are in the privacy policy.

Your next book deserves better campaigns.
