2021. Uptime turns books into knowledge hacks
A new service called Uptime positions itself as a "knowledge hacking" app. It offers 5-minute "knowledge hacks" extracted from books, curated by authors themselves and verified by a team of experts. The goal is to enable you to quickly grasp the ideas and insights from books without investing excessive time. Meanwhile, authors gain a fresh avenue to connect with potential readers who might eventually purchase the complete works. These hacks are presented in a distinctive visual story format, crafted to inspire, enhance learning, and provide an enjoyable and shareable experience.
2018. Blinkist - condensed reading platform for non-fiction books
Startup Blinkist offers concise versions of non-fiction literature, enabling users to read or listen to each title in approximately 15 minutes. Its purpose is to provide knowledge extracted from top books, with the intention not to replace reading the complete work but rather to offer sufficient information for readers to decide whether they would like to make a purchase. The success of Blinkist's business model relies on offering popular content, as the app initially provides a free trial period of seven days but subsequently charges $79.99/year or $12.99/month for continued usage. To sustain user engagement, the app must consistently provide captivating content that entices users to return repeatedly.
