## What is Kukatu?

Kukatu makes book clubs fun.

Whether you're starting a new club or joining one with friends, Kukatu gives your group everything it needs to read together — from picking the next book to celebrating who read the most.

BOOK CLUBS, REIMAGINED
Create a club, invite friends, and start reading together. Set a Club Challenge (your group's yearly reading target) and watch friendly competition push everyone to read more.

TRACK YOUR READING
Log every book you finish. Browse millions of titles, scan barcodes, or import your Goodreads library in seconds. See what your friends are reading and discover your next favourite through the people you trust.

VOTE ON YOUR NEXT BOOK
No more endless debates. Propose books for the club and let everyone vote. The best suggestion wins — democratically.

LEADERBOARDS WITH REAL STAKES
Every book counts toward your score. Your points are calculated based on how ambitious your personal reading goal is versus the Club Challenge — set a bolder goal and earn more points per book. See where you stand against your clubmates in real time.

EVENTS & MEETUPS
Plan book club meetups, set reminders, and manage RSVPs — all inside the app. Never miss a discussion night again.

CLUB CHAT
Every club has its own group chat. Discuss plot twists, share quotes, or just check in. Reactions, images, and real-time updates keep the conversation alive.

FRIENDS & DISCOVERY
Add friends, browse their shelves, and discover books through the people whose taste you trust. Send friend requests and see what everyone's been reading.

SIMPLE FEEDBACK
Have an idea or spotted something off? Send feedback directly from the app and track its status.

Kukatu is free to download and use.
