Discover and get a Lekty'Book

The marketplace is the storefront for every published Lekty'Book. Readers search there, check out a Lekty'Book's page, then read it for free, buy it or subscribe to it.

Find a Lekty'Book on the marketplace

The catalog shows published Lekty'Books, 12 per page, with a "New releases" section and, when there is one, a "Builders" section (the first beta-tester creators). Each card shows the price based on the mode ("Free", the price, "€X/month" or "from €X/month") and the creator's name.

Where: Top bar › "Marketplace" (/marketplace) · Open
  1. Click « Marketplace » in the top bar.
  2. Type a word in « Search for a Lekty'Book, a topic… » and click « Search ».
  3. Or click a category below the search bar (e.g. « Business & Career ») and choose « All Business & Career » or a subcategory.
  4. In the sort menu, choose « Newest », « Price: low to high », « Price: high to low », « Free » or « Paid ».
  5. Click a card to open the Lekty'Book's page.

You can browse the marketplace without an account: perfect for showing it in a demo before you even sign up. The « The Creators' Counter » link, below the title, takes you to the creators' storefronts.

Lekty'Books in your languageNew

The marketplace first shows Lekty'Books written in the site's language. Below that, the « In other languages » section features a few Lekty'Books in other languages. The « Language » menu lets you pick a specific language or see everything.

  3. Or open the language menu and choose « Français », « English », « Español », « Deutsch » or « All languages ».

If there aren't any Lekty'Books in the site's language yet, the marketplace shows everything, so you never land on an empty page.

What's guaranteed behind the scenesNew

Every Lekty'Book is reviewed by an AI when it's published (guidelines and legal), with a human review if there's any doubt, before it appears on the marketplace. Listings are indexed on Google (title, description, cover).

Where: Automatic, nothing to do
  1. The creator publishes their Lekty'Book.
  2. An AI automatically checks the Lekty'Book.
  3. The Lekty'Book appears on the marketplace, or goes to human review if there's any doubt.

Why you can trust it: readers don't land on just anything. The selection is checked every time something is published.
