From $13/mo · ships free

Each month we take the newsletters you read and the online essays you save, typeset them for the page, and send a custom book to your door. Forget how to read online. Forget the noise. Start reading.

How it works

  1. Add your favorite blogs, newsletters, and RSS feeds through our browser extension. If you can read it on the web, we can print it.
  2. At the end of the month we typeset everything for the page: proper columns, photographs, and endnotes for every link. How do we do it? Alchemy, mostly.
  3. Your issue is printed, perfect-bound and handed off to a global network of delivery elves. It sounds like Christmas to me.

What people ask

How much does it cost?

$13 for 100 pages of content, shipping included. $4 for every 100 pages more.

How does pricing work?

Pick a page limit or price. That’s the most we'll print and the most we'll charge you.

What about paywalled pieces?

Your browser fetches the content, so if your browser doesn't get a paywall (is logged in, probably) you will receive the full content.

Can I preview my book?

Yes! When you install the browser extension you can preview how each subscription or article will print.

Your first book is free.
