## What is Mimesa?

Mimesa is a reading and listening app built for people who want to read more, but don’t always have the time to sit down with a book.

Explore a huge library of public-domain classics, listen to human-narrated audiobooks from LibriVox, or upload your own EPUBs and PDFs to read or turn into audio with AI narration.

Whether you’re commuting, walking, studying, relaxing, or trying to finally finish that book you started months ago, Mimesa lets you switch between reading and listening whenever you need.

READ AND LISTEN IN ONE APP

Mimesa combines an ebook reader, audiobook player, and AI narration tool into one simple library.

You can:
• Browse 77,000+ public-domain books
• Listen to 22,000+ LibriVox human audiobooks
• Read EPUBs and PDFs on your phone
• Generate AI narration for supported documents
• Follow along with text while listening
• Build your own personal reading library
• Pick up where you left off across books and audio

CLASSIC BOOKS, MADE EASIER TO FINISH

Mimesa is especially useful for classic literature and public-domain books. Discover authors like Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Oscar Wilde, Mary Shelley, Mark Twain, and many more.

Instead of choosing between reading and listening, you can do both.

Start reading at home, continue listening while walking, then return to the text later.

HUMAN AUDIOBOOKS FROM LIBRIVOX

For thousands of classics, Mimesa includes human-narrated audiobook recordings from LibriVox volunteers.

Listen to public-domain audiobooks directly inside the app with a clean, simple player designed for long-form listening.

AI NARRATION FOR EPUBS AND PDFs

Have a document you want to listen to?

Upload supported EPUB or PDF files and use AI narration to turn text into audio for personal listening. This is useful for books, essays, notes, study material, long documents, and other readable files.

Your uploaded documents are for your personal use inside your own library.

BUILT FOR READING MORE

Mimesa is designed around one simple goal: helping you spend more time with books.

Use it when you want to:
• Read classic literature
• Listen to audiobooks
• Turn documents into audio
• Follow along while listening
• Study while commuting
• Replace endless scrolling with books
• Keep your reading and listening in one place

WHY MIMESA?

Most reading apps focus only on ebooks. Most audiobook apps focus only on audio. Mimesa brings both together.

It gives you public-domain books, human audiobooks, AI narration, EPUB/PDF support, and a clean reading experience in one app.

Read when you can. Listen when you can’t.

Download Mimesa and start building your reading habit today.
