Libraro

The £112 billion global publishing industry has both major bottlenecks and a low rate of return. 2.5 Mn manuscripts are submitted yearly, yet fewer than 2% are published, and even fewer turn a profit. Identifying best-sellers is a gamble and publishers are becoming increasingly risk averse. Authors face traditional gatekeeping barriers and lack strong IP protection in the AI era. The problem is not that too many books get published but that many of the best voices remain undiscovered. Libraro exists to cut through the noise, spotlighting exceptional stories and connecting them directly with readers who’ll love them. We then share the data with publishing partners to help them make more accurate acquisition decisions. Libraro is a safe discoverability platform for new authors, a place where emerging voices can be found, read, and championed without compromising their intellectual property. We use reader data to champion author manuscripts and improve the odds of finding the next bestseller for authors, readers and our publishing partners.
