Bartlett says his AI “has this huge memory on me — it knows what I'm dealing with.” But ChatGPT's memory is a few paragraphs of notes. iChatbook has your entire reading history, every concept you've explored, and 200,000+ books to match against.
“Because it has this huge memory on me, it knows what I'm dealing with. It knows the businesses I'm building, the problems I have. And so I just say, what's the question I should be asking you? Which book should I be reading?”
Multiple paths to your next great read — all powered by your actual reading history.
Category-aware suggestions based on the books you've actually read — not what's trending on Amazon.
Swipe-based discovery with AI previews. Find books by feel, not just by algorithm.
254 human-curated collections organized by theme — follow curators whose taste matches yours.
Find books through concepts — “Show me other books that discuss second-order thinking” — not just author/genre.
Ask the Homepage Chat “What should I read about leadership?” and get recommendations from the actual library with links.
Current and historical New York Times bestseller lists — browse what's selling, filtered by your interests.
