BeyondRead

Free every month: 10 AI chats, 3 whole-book AI digests to keep, free AI translate. Bring your own EPUB, PDF or MOBI, your files stay with you.

BeyondRead is a local-first ebook reader with an AI reading buddy built in.

Import your own DRM-free EPUB, PDF, or MOBI/AZW files and start reading. Select text to translate it, have it explained, or ask follow-up questions. When you want a whole-book overview, press and hold a book cover and choose AI Digest. New digests are generated at your request, using the book's structure and sampled text.
