Curl up with a good Manifold.

Shouldn’t the web be a nicer place to read books?

Manifold works with the files you’ve already got, converting your existing content into beautiful, responsive online texts that can be annotated and augmented with rich media.

The web isn’t made of paper. A Manifold project can contain almost anything with a digital footprint. If you think it’s relevant to your project, put it in your project.

With Manifold reading groups, your highlights, annotations, and discussions can be public, private, or visible only to a group—perfect for classrooms and other close collaborations.

Group projects into project collections, or let Manifold do it for you based on project subjects and tags. Once you’ve built a collection, you can promote it with its own custom landing page.

We do our best to learn from the print book. Our reader is built to be beautiful, customizable, and easy to use—no matter the device or browser.

Manifold supports eCommerce and Open Access. We’ll never tell you how to approach your own market.

You can adjust the color scheme, add your logo, create custom pages, create stand-alone projects—it’s easy to make Manifold your own, no developer required.

We’re 100 percent open source. Every bit of Manifold is accessible through documented APIs. Integrate with external systems, automate workflows, bulk-ingest backlists, and more.

We are deeply committed to accessibility and constantly review our app to ensure that all users can access content without compromising functionality. Learn more about our work.
