Works With Any Book You Own.

Kindle, Kobo, Apple Books, Nook, Physical Paperback, Audiobook … it doesn’t matter; if you can tell us where you stopped, Recapty can get you caught up.

Generic summaries online cover the entire book … hello, spoilers. Or they're so vague they don't actually help you remember what happened.

Recapty gives you exactly what you've read, no more, no less. It's personalized to your stopping point, not dumbed down for everyone.

Ok, But Why Not Just Google a Summary?

You start, you stop, you fall asleep mid-sentence. Sound familiar?

You pick it up again tomorrow night (or next week) … and forget everything you’ve read so far.

Stop endlessly re-reading the same pages and chapters over and over again. Get a recap of only what you’ve read so far.

Recapty isn't a shortcut. It's a bridge back to books you actually want to finish. We help you remember where you were so you can get back to reading.
