# Biblio

A 3D library app for book lovers. Drop epubs or PDFs onto a beautiful
bookshelf and browse them in 3D. Live at https://biblio.ink, and on the
App Store for iPhone, iPad and Mac (one download covers all three).

  Windows and Linux included. Nothing to install.
- iPhone and iPad: iOS / iPadOS 18 or later.
- Mac: macOS 15 or later (native app, Apple silicon and Intel).

## What makes it different

- Books render as real 3D hardcovers — spine, covers, page edges, tilt
- Your library stays on your device by default (local-first, IndexedDB
  on the web, on-device storage in the Apple apps)
- Works offline once loaded
- Vidya, an AI librarian, is built into the app — chat naturally to find,
  add, or organise books; local AI for free users, Claude Sonnet for
  Biblio Cloud subscribers
- Download any stored epub or PDF directly from the app
- Book Designer lets you customise covers: upload art, lock proportions,
  choose binding style
- Holds roughly 1,000 books per 5 GB of browser storage
- No ads, no tracking, no cookie banners, no cloud account required

## Who it's for

Readers who care about how their library looks and feels. Book
collectors. People who want their ebook library to feel like a
physical shelf rather than a spreadsheet.

## Pricing

- Free tier: unlimited books, local storage, local-AI librarian
- Biblio Cloud: $39/year — multi-device sync, Claude Sonnet librarian,
  custom book styles
