Not a file in a browser. A book that works.
Every title published here arrives with its ownership already recorded on a public blockchain, an assistant that has read only that book, and a line back to its author. The four types below describe how far a particular book takes that — not how good it is, and not what it costs.
Ownership you can prove
A dated public notice, a timestamped record on Polygon, an ownership record minted to you, and a certificate when the notice closes. Evidence that exists outside this company.
Answers that cannot wander
The assistant is confined to your pages and your commentary. Asked something the book does not cover, it says so instead of inventing.
A reader you can hear
Questions arrive attributed, against the passage that prompted them. You reply; the reader is emailed. You see where readers struggle.
Normal eBook

A complete, protected, properly designed book. Most titles are this, and it is a finished product, not an entry tier.
What it is worth to you: Your work is on sale within a day, with proof of ownership you can show a court, a publisher or a platform — and readers can mark it up rather than just skim it.

Business eBook
Read, connect, and do business.
For a book that is also the front door to what you do — a consultant's method, a firm's handbook, a professional guide. The reader can act on it, not just finish it.
What it is worth to you: The book stops being a brochure and becomes a channel: a reader who is persuaded on page 40 can start a conversation on page 40, while they are still persuaded. Working today — a reader accepts an option and it reaches you with the passage that convinced them. We set the offer up with you; there is no form for it yet, because so far nobody has needed one.

Smart eBook
Read, understand, and interact.
For a book a reader has to absorb rather than finish — a textbook, a technical manual, a dense history. The book answers questions about itself.
What it is worth to you: Readers who would have given up at the hard chapter get through it, and you learn precisely where the book loses people — which is the most useful editing note you will ever receive.

Agent eBook
Read, interact, and execute.
A book that does work for the reader — produces a document, runs a process, calls a service you have authorised. This is the one still being built, and we would rather say so than imply it exists.
What it is worth to you: The book delivers the thing the reader actually came for, not just the instructions for obtaining it.

What you prepare

- Register your interest — the first ones will be designed with their authors
Documents, proof and signatures
This is the part that separates a book here from a file on a download page, and it is worth being precise about — both in what it does and in what it does not yet do.
What every book gets today
- Declaration of ownership. Generated from your submission and emailed to you — the legal record of your claim. You may countersign it and upload the signed copy; it is kept with the record.
- Public Notice of Claim. Published for thirty days. Anyone may read it and anyone may contest it, which is what makes it evidence rather than an assertion.
- Blockchain proof of service. The notice is timestamped on Polygon. The transaction is printed on the notice as a link, so a person disputing your claim can check the date themselves.
- An ownership record minted to you, held in escrow and withdrawable to your own wallet.
- Certificate, issued when the notice period closes.
- Payment verified on-chain. Sales settle in BZeUSD and are checked against the chain before access is granted — one payment, one grant, ever.
What is not built yet
- E-signature inside the book. A reader cannot yet sign an agreement on the page. Today the Declaration is signed the ordinary way — you sign it and upload the signed copy.
- Acceptance is not signature. Proposal acceptance is live, and a click records interest and intent — who, what, when, and which page of the book they were on. It is not presented as a signed contract and does not make one; the wording saying so travels with the offer itself.
- Form filling and measurement tools — document-workflow features, not reading features. Not planned.
A public notice is not a government copyright registration, and the certificate says so on its face. It is dated, public, verifiable evidence of a claim — which is what makes a later dispute winnable.
Which one is mine?
You do not have to decide. Prepare your book, upload it, and the platform reads your content and suggests a type, which you can accept or change. If you never think about it again, your book is a Normal eBook and it is complete.
- Do you want readers to hire you, or buy something? → Business
- Is your book hard, and do readers need help with it? → Smart
- Should the book do a job for the reader? → Agent
- None of the above? → Normal, the right answer for most books
