BookRix launches subscription app

BookRix, the independent, community-focused self-publishing platform has launched its first subscription app for readers and listeners. Developed in partnership with Beat Technology—an international leader in subscription and streaming solutions for ebooks and audiobooks—the new app represents a strategic leap toward creating a fully integrated publishing ecosystem.

“Within the lifespan of BookRix, self-publishing has risen and professionalized, and digital publishing has changed. To enable authors and independent publishers—established as well as a new wave of creative storytellers—publishing platforms have to evolve. With BookRix’s roots as a creative community, we deeply believe that the direct contact of publishers and consumers is vital not only to independent publishers,” said Johannes Conrady, CEO of BookRix.

The partnership with Beat Technology brings together BookRix’s commitment to author empowerment with Beat’s world-class technology expertise. “Seeing our tech stack move from trade publishing also into the exciting realms of a self-publishing community such as BookRix has been a rewarding journey. We firmly believe in the commercial viability and the creativity of self-publishing, and can’t wait to have this app up and running with the BookRix community,” said Nathan Hull, CSO of Beat Technology.
