TOC Works

Create a work

Start with your table of contents.

ToC Works develops your structure into a complete draft using AI. Review the quote before production, then keep the result private, export it, or publish it here.

Provide your table of contents.

Your estimate appears after the structure is parsed, before any production. Saving or editing the TOC is free.

From an idea to a table of contents

You don’t need to begin with an outline. ToC Works’ founder spent several days exploring an idea in ChatGPT, following questions in different directions. Once the central ideas felt resolved and a distinctive argument had emerged, he asked ChatGPT to organize the conversation into an outline for a hypothetical book. That outline became the starting point for his work in ToC Works.

Try asking: “Organize the ideas we have developed into a book outline, with chapters and sections. Preserve my central argument, show how the chapters build on it, and flag unresolved questions.”

Review and revise the outline before bringing it here. It should express the work you want to create.

The process

From TOC to work.

1

Provide your TOC and get a quote

Paste your table of contents to see the estimated production price. You can provide sources and instructions when we arrange production of your work.

2

We generate your draft with AI

Once you approve the quote, ToC Works uses AI to generate your complete draft, following your structure and instructions, with citations for factual claims.

3

Receive your complete draft

Download your draft as Word or EPUB, or save a PDF from the print view. Keep it private for your own use, or publish it on ToC Works for others to read.

TOC guidance

Make the argument visible before the prose exists.

Rough is fine. The governing idea and sequence must already be yours.

View the recommended TOC structure
1

State one central proposition.

Every work opens by stating it, setting its boundaries, and previewing the argument.

2

Arrange the necessary moves.

Eight to twenty-four chapters is a useful starting range.

3

Write claim-level sections.

Specific claims and questions work better than broad topics.

4

Show objections and limits.

Mark what is known, inferred, speculative, or unresolved.

5

Map material to chapters.

Identify the sources and notes each chapter may use. Share them when production is arranged.

What you receive

A complete written draft.

You supply the idea and table of contents. TOC Works generates the prose; you review, edit, and decide where it goes.

Evidence-based claims are cited. Generated text can still be uneven or mistaken.

Complimentary founding pilot

Priced by length.
Free during the pilot.

The estimate uses the number of recognized sections as a proxy for length. No flat minimum: shorter works cost less, longer works cost more. Your estimate stays visible when the complimentary pilot credit brings your total to $0. One work per account; no coupon code or card required. Production timing is confirmed separately.
