LibraryLens — Reading Analytics Dashboard for Publishers' Marketing Teams

Why This is an Opportunity

Publisher marketing teams currently rely on gut feeling and expensive Nielsen BookScan data. A focused dashboard pulling from public Goodreads and Open Library data for specific genre niches is a clear B2B sell at $49/mo.

Key Pain Points

  • Planning a marketing push with no data on when readers actually engage with similar titles
  • BookScan is expensive and only shows sales, not reader interest or buzz
  • Manually checking Goodreads trending lists and competitor reviews in a spreadsheet
  • No easy way to see if a comp title is gaining or losing momentum before your book launches

Original Discovery

Small and mid-size publishers want to understand reading trends to time their marketing pushes — what genres are trending on Goodreads, what comparable titles are being talked about, when buzz peaks relative to release dates. LibraryLens gives marketing teams a dashboard of reading trend data for their genre categories so they can plan campaigns around actual reader behavior, not guesswork.
