Aldus keeps the royalty receipts
A royalty ledger for self-published authors that turns their KDP report files into traceable totals for royalties, units, and page reads.
- For
- Self-published authors tracking KDP royalties
- Worth noticing
- The site says parsed report rows and a file fingerprint are sent; the report file, store password, and store cookies stay on-device.
Field notes
The documented workflow starts with Excel (.xlsx) reports downloaded from KDP: Aldus previews what it reads, accepts multiple files, and recognizes repeat imports. Each displayed figure is marked estimated or final and can be traced to its source report and download date; titles can be merged, split, or renamed. The page says parsed rows and a file fingerprint leave the device, while the source file and store credentials do not. Amazon Ads and Meta Ads connections are explicitly marked planned, not available.
