2014. Inkling launched app for Android



The platform for interactive digital books, Inkling, has recently announced the launch of its digital reader specifically designed for Android. With this development, users now have the convenience of accessing Inkling's expanding collection of educational content from virtually any smartphone, tablet, or computer, regardless of their location.

2013. Inkling Habitat reimagines ebook creation


Inkling, a digital publishing company founded by former Apple employees, aims to bring a revolutionary approach to the e-reading industry by crafting visually appealing content. At the core of Inkling's strategy lies Inkling Habitat, a cloud-based collaborative software designed for digital publishing. Habitat enables teams to collaborate in real-time to create engaging content. Editors take text and images from the original printed book and transform them into easily digestible information blocks. Designers and developers then use these blocks to craft visually stunning "cards." Habitat combines the power of software like Adobe Suite's InDesign with the collaborative nature of Google Docs. The entire team can seamlessly work together, providing feedback, and contributing ideas within the software itself. Furthermore, all content created with Inkling becomes searchable on Google. By entering a topic followed by "Inkling" as a query, users can find a list of available Inkling texts covering various subjects, from digital cameras to The Modernist Cuisine to dog training. Habitat's utility has attracted partnerships with major publishers such as Pearson, McGraw-Hill, and Elsevier, who have joined forces with Inkling to develop interactive versions of their own reference materials.


2012. Inkling wants to become Amazon for illustrated learning content



Inkling aims to revolutionize the publishing of educational books by creating interactive eBooks for various devices such as iPad, iPhone, Mac, PC, and Web. These eBooks offer a unique reading experience through the incorporation of 3D images, videos, quizzes, self-assessment tools, interactive guided tours, slideshows, and social notes. Although initially focused on higher education, Inkling has recently expanded its reach to include consumer-facing education. Today, the publisher introduces the Inkling Library, an online store that features a wide selection of digital eBooks spanning genres like Travel & Adventure, Food & Drink, Arts & Photography, Music, and more. The books available in the library are sourced from publishers such as Frommer's, O'Reilly, and even include titles from the renowned "For Dummies" series, now under Wiley's ownership. The average price for these titles is approximately $9.99, with the option to purchase individual chapters starting at $0.99.
