The product

A whole publishing house, without leaving one place.

Bookloft isn't one module with extras bolted on: it's a book's whole journey, and each stop keeps the thread of the last. This is the map.

From the pile to the payout

03

A manuscript comes in here and leaves as a book that pays its author.

Three acts and nine stops on one platform. Every step keeps the thread of the last, so nobody retypes what was already there.

Act ISelect

The manuscript that arrives today is read today.

It comes in through a form under your brand and is read in full: a score per dimension, the quote behind each judgement and a recommendation. You decide, and the decision is recorded with its reason.

Act IIPublish

From contract to print run, without retyping the title.

The contract keeps your royalty terms. Every production milestone has its date. The record goes out with ISBN, Thema and ONIX on its way to DILVE, and the print run enters the warehouse with its cost per copy.

Act IIISell and pay out

The royalty statement stops being a full day of spreadsheets.

Sales come in by channel with their rates and returns. The statement builds itself from the contract terms; you review it and sign it, and the author sees it in their dashboard the same day.
