Interactive flipbook reader
Present every PDF as a smooth single-page or two-page spread, with page turning, zoom, thumbnails, full screen and direct page links.
The online magazine platform for independent creators
Create searchable, interactive publications, reach public or private audiences, work with your team and understand how every issue is read.
A better reading experience
Help readers find, open and return to the magazines that matter to them.
Fast opening for long issues
The first spread appears as soon as it is ready while nearby pages continue loading in the background for smoother reading.
Search inside magazines
Readers can search the words printed inside accessible issues, see matching extracts and jump directly to the right page.
Personal reading library
Readers and creators can follow titles, save issues, revisit purchases and continue reading from where they stopped.
Publish and distribute
Manage a complete title and take every new issue from PDF to audience.
Cover-led issue dashboard
See every issue in a title, its live, scheduled or draft status, and open its settings, reader or statistics from one place.
Title profiles and branding
Create a reusable identity with a banner, logo, accent colour, tagline and publisher details for every magazine title.
Flexible publishing controls
Publish immediately, keep an issue in draft or schedule it for later, with free preview pages and mature-content controls where needed.
Embeddable reader
Copy an issue-specific embed from Studio to place a branded, spread-width reader on another website and track those reads separately.
Optional PDF downloads
Choose issue by issue whether readers can download the original PDF, and whether a purchase is required first.
Sharing and new-issue emails
Share titles and issues by branded email or social channels, and notify followers and members when a new issue is published.
Teams and controlled access
Publish for the open web, a private audience or a title-wide editorial team.
