About Basmo Chatbook
Basmo is a reading companion app that combines a reading tracker with an AI chatbot called ChatBook. The chatbot lets you talk with a book you are reading, ask for explanations of passages, request summaries and dig into details, with the aim of deepening comprehension rather than replacing the reading itself. A web demo of ChatBook is offered on the home page.
Around the AI feature sits a full set of habit tools for avid readers. You can track reading time, set a yearly reading goal and receive a daily page target, build a reading schedule and get reminders. A reading journal captures thoughts and notes, and you can record how a book made you feel. You can scan and highlight passages, design shareable quote images, keep digital shelves of finished and current books, and build to be read lists. Reading statistics can be shared with friends.
The product suits people who read regularly and want to remember, reflect on and enjoy more of what they read. It is distributed as a mobile app through the App Store and Google Play.
