How it works

The platform uses data to spot promising stories: its algorithms analyse reader engagement to find books worth publishing, and it has launched a publishing arm that turns top stories into published novels.

Inkitt is free for readers and writers, which makes it a good place to build an audience as a new author. The trade-off is that it is a competitive, popularity-driven platform, and success depends on attracting readers in a crowded catalogue.
