A few weeks ago, I launched Bookscope, an AI-powered mobile app designed to make discovering books faster, easier, and more personal. Today, I want to share why I built it and what makes it different.
Over the years, I’ve always been fascinated by how technology can help people learn, read, and discover new ideas. Early on, I developed YKS Koç, a study app that helps students prepare for Turkey’s university entrance exam, now with over 6,000 downloads. That experience showed me how much impact a well-designed app can have on learning.
Books are another area where people often struggle: we see a cover, hear a recommendation, or read a blurb—but still don’t really know if it’s the right book for us. I wanted to solve that problem with Bookscope.
Bookscope lets users scan a book cover and instantly get a clear overview, personalized recommendations, and AI-powered insights. It also offers an AI assistant to chat about books and a “to read” list to organize reading. The goal is simple: remove friction from discovering books and make it easier to decide what to read next.
I wanted Bookscope to be more than just another app. It’s designed to empower readers, not just serve content. By combining AI with a simple, intuitive interface, users can get value immediately and explore books in a way that feels personal and smart.
Bookscope is still young, and I’m looking for people to help spread the word, give feedback, and grow this idea. My vision is to make Bookscope the go-to AI tool for book lovers everywhere—whether they’re exploring new genres, revisiting classics, or finding their next favorite read.
