Attention is a choice

What we notice grows in our thinking; what we ignore slowly fades into the background.

The quality of your life is determined in large part by the quality of your attention.

From file to conversation

A reading group that always stays with your book

Not a generic chatbot next to your book, but a conversation partner that works with the passage you are reading right now.

01

Bring your book

Upload a file you have the right to read, or find a title and continue safely to the provider.

02

Read or listen

Highlight a passage, have it read aloud, and save what you want to revisit later.

03

Start a conversation

Choose facts, deep dive, book club, or study coach—the Fellow adapts its tone and approach.

“The Fellow does not just give me an answer. It asks exactly the follow-up question that helps me think further.”

Good to know

Can I open my Kindle, Kobo, or Storytel books directly? +

Only when the platform provides an authorised export or partner API. Folio Fellow never bypasses DRM. You can upload your own DRM-free EPUB, TXT, or supported PDF and follow safe links from the catalogue to bookshops.

Does Folio Fellow use my books to train AI? +

Folio Fellow does not use your book text for advertising or its own model training. Only the selected passage is sent with your question. You can delete local data immediately; full cloud-data and account deletion is a hard release requirement for the public version.

Is the AI always correct? +

No AI is infallible. The Fellow therefore sees only the selected passage, grounds its response in that source, and states uncertainty. For study or research, checking the book remains essential.

Your next good conversation is already on your nightstand.

Open your book. Meet your Fellow.
