Books

The publishing engine at the heart of the platform. Manage your full catalog with rich metadata per title, run your ISBN lifecycle, generate ONIX 3.1 exports for distributors, and get unified sales analytics across every platform you sell through.

Book Catalog

Every book is a rich catalog record. Each physical or digital format — Paperback, Hardcover, eBook, Audiobook, Large Print — is tracked as its own record with its own ISBN, pricing, and retailer links. Organise books into series, assign subject codes, and control public visibility with a single status toggle.

  • Title, subtitle, summary, edition, and publish date per book
  • Multiple formats per book — Paperback, Hardcover, eBook, Audiobook, Large Print
  • Multiple currencies and their prices per format
  • Book series with part number and drag-and-drop sort order
  • Thema and BISAC subject classification with full hierarchy browser
  • Cover, thumbnail, and OG social image — CDN-delivered, auto-converted to WebP
  • Excerpts (sample chapters) shown on the public book detail page
  • Retailer purchase and review links per format — active/inactive flags
  • Geolocation-aware retailer routing (e.g. amazon.com vs amazon.co.uk)
  • Affiliate code injection per retailer — codes never exposed to client-side code
  • Featured flag and drag-and-drop catalog sort priority
  • Draft / Published workflow controls public visibility independently per format
  • Bulk import from structured data files for catalog migration

Peek Inside — Native PDF Preview

Upload a preview PDF, set the page range, and sample pages appear directly on your book's public detail page — no third-party widget, no JS library license.

Reader Reviews — Verified Purchase

Customers who purchased through your store can submit star ratings and reviews, automatically tagged as Verified Purchase. Moderate from a single admin queue.

ISBN Lifecycle Management

ISBNs are assigned at the format level — each edition of your book gets its own ISBN, exactly as the industry requires. The platform supports every assignment scenario and keeps a full audit log of every ISBN action.

Your Own Agency Block

Assign sequential ISBNs from a registered block. Tracks remaining stock and sends a low-stock alert before you run out mid-release.

Pre-Existing ISBN

Enter an ISBN-13 or ISBN-10 from any source — validated, normalized to ISBN-13, and checked for duplicates automatically.

Free Platform ISBN

Accepting a KDP free ISBN? The system flags the title/author lock restrictions and requires explicit confirmation before saving.

No-ISBN Format

For formats distributed without an ISBN — clearly recorded without losing the format record or its associated sales data.

ONIX 3.1 & Industry Standards

Generate fully compliant ONIX 3.1 Reference Names export records for NielsenIQ, Bowker, IngramSpark, and library aggregators. Records cover all six ONIX blocks including mandatory accessibility ProductFormFeature blocks, multi-territory pricing, and configurable sales rights.

Barcode Generator

Generate GS1-compliant EAN-13 and Bookland EAN (ISBN + EAN-5 price supplement) barcodes for any format — rendered in OCR-B typeface at 600 DPI, ready for cover design files or print submission.

Reseller Sales Analytics

Every distributor sends royalty reports in a different format. The platform ingests all of them — normalizing, deduplicating, and mapping each row to your catalog automatically. One clean view of your sales across every platform, no manual spreadsheet work.

Smart Data Handling

  • Supersession: Final monthly reports automatically replace mid-month estimates — no duplicate counting ever.
  • Ghost books: Unmatched vendor IDs surface separately — excluded from totals but always visible.
  • Multi-currency: Royalties stay in original currency and convert to your reporting currency.
  • Kobo Plus: Subscription read-through tracked separately — revenue types never mixed.
