What MiblArt does

MiblArt is a Ukrainian-headquartered (Ternopil) design services company that produces custom book covers and adjacent author-facing creative assets for the global indie/self-publishing market. Founded in 2015 as part of the Mibl Group family of brands (alongside sister companies getcovers.com and getpremades.com), the company has delivered 16,000+ covers to 3,800+ customers over a 10-year operating history and markets itself as a fully human-made alternative to AI-generated covers. Its core offering spans tiered custom cover design (Ebook Basic $220, Ebook+Print $270, Full Bundle $315, Premium $700 with photo manipulation/3D rendering, and Illustrated from $390), plus complementary services including audiobook covers (ACX-ready), author logo and branding ($150), interior formatting ($64-$460 by word count), marketing materials (A+ content, social banners, ad images), and author swag design (from $32). Production is staffed by five named in-house senior designers (Vova, Oleh, Julia, Mary, Milan) plus a Creative Director, with customer success, HR/social media, and additional graphic designers handling volume.

MiblArt operates a self-serve, product-led go-to-market: customers browse packages on miblart.com, place orders through the client.miblart.com portal, fill out a structured creative brief, and pay only on satisfaction for stock-photo-manipulated covers, with deposits required for premium and illustrated tiers and installment billing available. Distribution is direct and global, supported by an extensive content-marketing blog, email newsletter, social media community, an industry partner/affiliate program with discount codes (e.g., MIBL20BLACK, AUTHORBRAND30), and earned-media features in self-publishing publications (The Creative Penn, Kindlepreneur, SelfPublishingAdvice, Writers & Artists). The company is a member of the Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLi) and has accumulated multiple genre-specific industry awards.

Revenue is generated entirely through one-time project fees across the design service portfolio with no disclosed subscription, licensing, or recurring components; no external funding has been raised, and the company remains founder- and privately-held under the Mibl Group parent.
