Your shelves,
catalogued properly.
A catalogue for the books you actually own — lent out, shared with the house, and titled in whatever script they were printed in.
- Catalogues
- Books, authors, series
- Titles
- Any script, plus the original
- Lending
- Borrowers and due dates
- Sharing
- Up to eight people
- Export
- Always, every plan
Everything a book is, in one record.
Type an ISBN and the rest arrives. Authors, publishers and series are created as you name them, matched against what is already on the shelf so one misplaced space does not fork a second Paul Brunton.
- Scan or type an ISBN
- Metadata, cover and page count arrive filled in
- Authors, publishers, series
- Created as you type — never a form to fill first
- Shelves, tags, genres
- Organise the way the room is actually arranged
- Reading status and progress
- Where you are, and when you got there
- Notes and reviews
- Per book, private or shared with the house
- Stats and goals
- What you read this year, and what you meant to
Half your shelf is in a script most apps cannot spell.
Every book keeps its title in whatever script it was printed in, and a translation keeps its original title beside it. Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Tamil, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Thai: searchable in whichever one you happen to be thinking in.
- Title
- País de nieve
- Original title
- 雪国
- Author
- Yasunari Kawabata 川端 康成
A title in any script, and the original for a translation. Search matches both.
Know who has your books.
Lend a book to a name, not a sticky note. Borrowers get their own account, due dates turn amber before they turn red, and a reminder goes out without you having to be the one who asks.
Invite the people you actually lend to. Up to eight on one library — each with their own free account and their own reading history.
Free to fifty books.
Fifty is a shelf. Everything past it is a collection, and the tools that only matter to a collection are the ones you pay for. Nothing about the free tier is a crippled version of the paid one.
Books and image storage are shared across all libraries you own.

Four things you never pay for.
- Export, always
- Every book, every note, every loan — complete, on any plan, whenever you want it. Your catalogue is yours.
- Sharing down to zero
- Whoever you invite gets their own account for free. Nobody has to pay to read the shelf you built.
- Your public page
- Every library can have a public page. Paid plans drop the badge and take a custom address; the page itself is never the thing you buy.
- Nothing is ever deleted
- Past a limit you cannot add — but everything already catalogued stays visible, editable and exportable. No hostages.
Start with the shelf nearest you.
Fifty books, no card, and a complete export the moment you want to leave.
