Une plateforme pour les lecteurs d'ebooks afin de gérer, annoter et rechercher leurs surlignages Kindle et Kobo. Travail SEO initial effectué, bon classement pour les mots-clés pertinents avec un volume de recherche croissant. L'outil gratuit génère du trafic mais la conversion nécessite des améliorations. La bonne distribution, les intégrations et une mise à jour tarifaire présentent un fort potentiel. Projet individuel, sans financement externe. Ouvert aux offres. Codebase construite avec NextJs + Firebase.
