Yes, this is precisely the problem we're trying to solve.
- Text Editors - with the exception of some specialised tools, text editors are seldom made for authors, they are either too much specialised or too little. Building a custom word processor precisely for authoring means we can fine tune the writing experience.
- Exports - Almost all of the default export options suck, they create unreadable messes of typography with zero consideration for making something beautiful. There is a reader on the other end of your books, it is our duty to give them the best reading experience. With our own typesetting engine we can create beautiful looking books at the click of a button.
- Selling - This is where most of the competition lives, you can publish on KDP but need to stay in their price bracket or they take 70% of your book price. Setting up blurb is not easy. Even if all this happens, you would still need to provide support and handle returns and refunds.
I believe Authors, Readers and the entire publishing landscape would benefit from a fully integrated platform, but only time will tell.
