Legible Launches LibrarianAI Beta with Integrated ChatGPT

Innovative AI search embedded in Legible’s browser-based eBookstore offering two million eBooks will drive engagement, reading and sales

February 13, 2023 - Vancouver, B.C. – Legible Inc. (CSE: READ) (OTCQB: LEBGF) (FSE: D0T) ("Legible” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the world-first integration of Open AI’s ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) into its proprietary eBookstore search engine, LibrarianAI™. Embedding this innovative AI tool into Legible’s browser-based eReading system transforms book discovery, integrating ChatGPT’s legacy knowledge and capabilities and providing a whole new way to access the two million eBooks in Legible’s catalogue.

Legible’s LibrarianAI can converse fluently in any language and is being fine-tuned to provide swift, friendly, comprehensive responses and recommendations as well as information on any aspect of book content. Customers can ask questions about books, authors, and other topics related to literature, and receive personalized results based on cumulative learning about their interests and choices as well as links to Legible’s eBooks.

The Open Beta of Legible’s LibrarianAI launches in Q1 and Legible invites the public to sign up now at www.legible.ai. The LibrarianAI will be released in early Q2 as a membership service called Legible Unbound with several tiers and a free version with ads.

“At Legible, we anticipated the importance and transformative power of AI early in our development and began building our own AI product, originally called “The Librarian.” OpenAI’s ChatGPT has allowed us to accelerate this process,” stated Angela Doll, Legible’s Chief Publishing Officer. “As the world’s only browser-based eBookstore, Legible.com is ideally suited to use AI, combining worldwide web search with content from millions of eBooks.”

Legible’s LibrarianAI has the potential to turbocharge conversion rates, driving sales and engagement by helping customers find the perfect book to read and much more. Global eBook sales were an estimated USD$20 billion in 2022 and are projected to reach USD$32 billion by 2032 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% from 2022 to 2032.

"AI is quickly being adopted worldwide and will soon be integrated into many aspects of our personal lives and business transactions. Legible is extremely well positioned to be part of that future thanks to our fully vectorized content and proprietary machine learning algorithms," said Kaleeg Hainsworth, CEO of Legible. “This is an exciting time for AI and the entire publishing industry, and we can’t wait to launch the LibrarianAI and Legible Unbound. Our goal is nothing less than to provide the most advanced eBook discovery and reading experience in the world.”
