All books originate from reputable, open-license archives like Project Gutenberg and Standard Ebooks. Clean text, no malware, and no copyright ambiguities.

One-tap import into an active learning library

Files are automatically parsed, formatted, and connected to your AI dictionary and vocabulary notebook, rather than stranded in a messy Downloads folder.

Unified cross-site search and personal source support

Search across major public-domain archives at once, or add custom book sites that sync seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, Android, e-ink, and desktop.
