What Readever is

A reading tool that sits next to the book rather than replacing it. It highlights what matters, explains context when you get stuck, and lets you ask questions about what you have read.

The framing is a mentor: reading becomes a conversation instead of a monologue.

What you can do with it

  • Get passages highlighted automatically
  • Ask for explanations of unfamiliar context
  • Turn highlights into structured notes
  • Discuss the book through chat
  • Find your next book from your interests
  • Read across genres including non-fiction, philosophy and classics

Who it is for

  • Students working through difficult texts
  • Non-native readers needing context
  • Philosophy and non-fiction readers
  • Readers who lose track of what they highlighted

What to watch out for

  • Explanations are generated, so check anything you intend to quote or build an argument on
  • Copyright applies to the books you load into it
  • Reading this way is slower per page, which suits some books and not others
  • Check what happens to your highlights and notes if you stop subscribing
