Company Summary
Booke is an universal app - a digital companion for smartwatch, smartphone, tablet and smart TV to any printed book available on the market that lets users take control of their printed book. Users can annotate, bookmark, view richer content, distribute passages and highlights, take comments, make comments and more. They can interact, collaborate and re-publish, a concept known as ‘content curation’.
For publishers, it’s a boon. Enhance your books’ visibility. Annotate and develop deeper content. What’s more, imagine being able to see what’s read, when and by whom. Who’s looking at what? Who’s sharing the material that matters? Who is influencing whom? Just imagine what you could do with this information. Analytics are there for the taking. Now, publishers can truly get to know their readers and find a marketplace to sell them for prices they want charge - paying not for selling books itself, but for all this brand new benefits.
Furthermore, Booke invites content. With Booke, a piece of printed matter is no longer a one-way street. The printed piece becomes interactive, engaging and an ongoing collaboration. From original author to reader to the global digital community. And back again.
