  • Sell the living book as a digital copy, or give it away and build a list of readers who chose to hear from you.
  • Only readers who opted in to hear from you ever appear, on screen or in the file.

  • Corrections and small updates are free for every reader
  • A new edition with new chapters can be a paid upgrade, from 1.00 to 9.99 in your book's currency
  • A What's new note in the reader, with the changes highlighted

Your book is already written. Let it keep working.

Notifications

News, in one place.

Update a book and the readers who own it find the news inside it. A reader reviews it or loves a line, and you see it in your notifications.

  • For readers: updates, new editions and your replies to their reviews
  • For you: new reviews and the lines your readers love
  • Each one can be switched off

For your readers

Your book travels with the reader.

Readers add X-Live to their Home screen and open your book with one tap. Once they own it, they can save it to the phone and keep reading on a plane, on a train, wherever the signal drops.

  • On the Home screen like an app, installed straight from the browser
  • Saved books open offline: the text, your audio and your videos
  • Live Mode reopens the book at the chapter they were reading
  • When you publish an update, they find it in the book's notifications
  • The CMS: a published book, which updates when you change a chapter
  • A chapter in the editor: the change reaches the next reader
