Hey HN! I’m Miran Antamian, founder and CEO of BookWatch, and I’m thrilled to introduce BookWatch.com. The first AI-powered Visual Library for learners who hate reading but love growing.

After 1.5 years of building, 65,000+ mobile app users, and countless animated summaries, we’re launching our New Web App to make learning even more effortless. The Problem: Visual Learners Can’t Learn from Books in Text or Audio Formats Did you know that 65% of people identify as visual learners? Yet most book knowledge remains trapped in text format. Many of us want the wisdom of great books but struggle with: - Finding time to read entire books - Maintaining focus through hundreds of pages - Remembering key concepts without visual reinforcement - Traditional reading is slow, boring, and leaves millions of learners behind.

Our Solution: Learn by Watching, Not Reading

BookWatch uses proprietary AI technology to transform non-fiction bestsellers into animated video summaries that capture the core ideas in a visually engaging format.

Some animated book summaries you might like:

What Makes BookWatch Special?

(1) AI-Powered Personal Book Expert Every video comes with an AI expert that knows everything about that specific book. Ask how to apply concepts to your unique situation: "How can I use these ideas to improve my startup?" or "How would this apply to my leadership role?". Our AI expert will give you specific advice based on the book on how to apply it in your life or business situation.

(2) Smart Note-Taking System Our one-click note system captures what's being said at that exact moment in the video. No need to pause or get distracted - just click and continue watching! Review and organize your notes later.

(3) AI Book Recommendation Engine Don't know where to start? Tell our AI what you want to learn ("I want to be a better public speaker" or "I want to be more productive" or “I want to learn b2b sales”), and it'll recommend the perfect books from our library.

(4) Progress Tracking & Gamification Stay motivated with achievement badges, learning streaks, and a visual representation of your growing knowledge base. See how many days have you been learning and which books helped you more.
