Storybase helps authors build relationships with their readers, and helps readers engage deeper with books through an immersive and interactive experience. FOR READERS A new way to experience audiobooks and ebooks: immersive, interactive, and connected to the author every step of the way. • Immersive: switch between audiobook and ebook, read and listen in sync, play your own music alongside your audiobook, and keep listening from your lock screen or CarPlay. • Interactive: ask the book questions with its AI assistant, by typing or out loud, and share chapters with the people who need them. • Offline: download audiobooks and ebooks to listen and read anywhere. • Connected: follow the author, join the book's forum, and get messages straight from the author. FOR AUTHORS What if your book was the beginning, not the end? • Reach: get your book into more hands with instant share links. • Engage: see how readers move through your book, and add AI prompts and next steps to the experience. • Activate: turn attention into relationships. Invite readers to stay in touch and show them where to go next. • Multiply: give your team, clients, and readers an easy way to pass the book forward. A book should do more than sit on a shelf. It is the door into everything you do next. Some features require a Reader Premium, Author Plus, or Author Pro subscription.
