Reader-powered digital publishing platform

About Inkitt

Inkitt operates as a reader-powered publisher, offering a platform where readers can access a diverse range of books for free across various genres like fantasy, sci-fi, romance, and more. The platform allows readers to provide feedback to authors, influencing the development of stories. Authors can submit their works, which Inkitt evaluates based on reader engagement metrics such as reading time and feedback. Successful stories are then offered publishing deals, including distribution on Inkitt's sister app, GALATEA. This data-driven approach helps Inkitt reduce risk by focusing on stories that have already garnered reader interest. The company generates revenue through publishing deals, sharing profits with authors, and potentially from premium content. Inkitt's goal is to connect readers with new literary talent while providing authors a platform to showcase their work.
