Frontlist purchases

• During the frontlist phase of title lifecycles, readers purchase licenses to whole titles, just like buying an ebook.
• Publishers set their own price per title.
• 80% of proceeds go to the rights holders.
• Proceeds are paid out at the beginning of each month, reflecting all purchases made in the previous month.

• 80% of proceeds go to rights holders, in proportion to the total block-views of backlist content, accumulated over the past month.
• Readers purchase blocks of credits which are consumed as content is read.
• Credits are consumed at different rates depending on the media: text, audio, video etc, reflecting higher generation and distribution costs for richer media.
• This, along with proceeds from Frontlist purchases, gets rolled into the single monthly payment at beginning of each month.
• Note, views by owners of purchased title (in text & audio) are not included in block-view payment calculations, as those titles were paid for up front.

1. Every viewing of every paragraph generates income, publicity, or both.
2. Your titles merge fully with the online world, creating new opportunities to link into social media, attract readers, and engage fan communities
3. Unique features offer new ways to drive traffic to your frontlist and backlist.
4. No algorithm: Tapestry does not make recommendations to readers. Palavie does not charge you for promotion.
5. There is no deep distribution chain: Readers access your works directly on iPhone, Android and the web.
6. The quality, visibility, and reach of your titles improve even after you release them.
7. Deep telemetry: Track views down to the paragraph level.

Organizations often struggle to keep documentation under control. Tapestry's advanced publication features can help. 

Readers benefit from a new digital format with increased utility and value

• Readers can read any title in any of over a dozen languages
• Both language learners and experts can read in the prose most appropriate to them.
• Readers can switch between text, spoken word, and eventually other forms of media whenever it suits them. Listen on the go, watch with your family on the couch, read in detail when you're focused. It's up to the reader. Different people absorb and learn content better from different formats. Now readers can choose the format that works best for them.
• A single pass gains entry to all back-listed titles, and those titles will be remixed and cross-referenced with clickable links everywhere, thus creating an integrated whole far more valuable than the individual parts (A Tapestry of interwoven content, if you will)
• Citations and citation-grade links: specific, durable, versioned, author and publisher attributed content makes Tapestry a scholar's dream.

Yes, here is why.

In this essay, we lay out why we believe that the world of books and publishing faces existential threats in the months and years ahead, and what we should do about it. This is a moment of crossroads. What we do over the next few months will decide who gets to define how stories and knowledge are shared in the future, and what ends up writing them.
