Vread gets books finished.
A book bought is not a book read. Vread splits reading into checkpoints, validates them with quick questions and makes progress visible β and everyone wins: readers, authors, publishers. Here is how.

Figures measured on October 5, 2026.
For readers
Really read. Prove it.
Vread applies to real books the mechanics that make Strava and Duolingo work: every book is split into checkpoints of about thirty pages, and each checkpoint is validated with a question drawn from the text β a one-word answer, ten seconds, not an exam.
- π Your format, your pace β paper, e-reader or audio. Vread does not replace the book, it accompanies it.
- π₯ Streaks, badges, progress β motivation no longer relies on willpower alone.
- π¦ Booky grows with you β your reading companion levels up as you read.
- π An honest library β what you have validated, not what you have piled up.
For authors
Readers who do not stop at page 40.
Your real competitor is not another novel, it is abandonment. On Vread, more than 9,000 books have been read all the way through, one validated checkpoint after another. Getting referenced means putting your book in the hands of readers equipped to finish it β readers who rate it, talk about it and share it once the last page is turned.
- β Free referencing β send the title and ISBN, we take care of the checkpoints and the questions.
- π Qualified visibility β more than 14,000 readers have already started a book on Vread: they come to read, not to scroll.
- π Proof of real reading β checkpoint validation measures what no sale can tell you: your book is read, entirely.
For publishers
The missing data in the book industry: completion.
Sales tell you a book was bought. Reviews tell you it gets people talking. Nobody knows whether it is read. Vread measures reading checkpoint by checkpoint and can tell you, aggregated and anonymized, where your readers hold on, where they drop off, and what they finish.
- π Engagement per title β starts, progress, completion rates: more than 130,000 checkpoints validated as of October 5, 2026.
- π A channel for your backlist β your titles surface when readers look for their next book, not only at launch.
- π€ Tailored partnerships β reading challenges, featured placements, referencing of entire collections.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get my book referenced on Vread?
One email to tanguy@vread.fr with the title, the author and, if possible, the ISBN. It is free: the book is split into checkpoints, its questions are prepared then reviewed before publication.
Does Vread replace the book?
No. You read wherever you want β paper, e-reader, audio. Vread validates the reading and makes it visible, it never replaces the text.
What data do publishers get?
Aggregated, anonymized indicators per title: starts, progress, completion. Never individual data.
How much does it cost?
Free for readers (optional Premium), free to reference a book.
