How your first night goes
01
Tell us what you read
Pick your genres and the authors you'd follow anywhere. Your feed starts there.
02
Let stories find you
No search bar. Swipe up to keep a story on your nightstand, down to pass — nothing is lost either way.
03
Read in company
Highlight a line, leave a note, see what other readers gasped at. Book clubs included.
04
Build your score
Streaks, words read, margin notes — your NightStand Score turns reading into something you can watch grow.
Writers too
Bring your manuscript. Leave with an audience.
Import a PDF or Word draft, publish chapter by chapter, and see what readers actually do — where they stop, what they finish, who comes back. Choose reader-and-writer mode when you sign up and the studio unlocks.
