Hello and thanks for your suggestions!
- Dynamic metrics is coming very very very soon - Good idea reaching out to publishers -- I might just do that. - People just email me their requests anyway, but it might be a good idea to invite the interaction - I'd love to host tech books, but as far as I know, most aren't in the public domain - Keeping it free is the plan! - Gamification is coming once I eventually get around to making user accounts. I'm not really sure how it'll create revenue streams though, so if you have something in mind, let me know!

Won't they sue you for hosting their books? Other then open source ones. Allowing user to upload their own epub/pdf would solve major issues. They could surf b-ok.cc and grab any book for free.
- +1 for dynamic metrics (WPM+ACC) while typing, shown at the page dash.
- Consider partnering with publishers to increase your content coverage.
- Add ability to request books
- +10 for Tech books
- Keep it free!
- Gamify the heck out of it. It'll allow you to create revenue streams while keeping it FREE.
KEEP THE FIRE BURNING Octouroboros! ;)
