Everything you need to know about Atticus
ChatGPT and other AI tools can't legally access or quote copyrighted books. They rely on general knowledge, which leads to gaps — and sometimes hallucinations. They also require you to leave your reading flow and manually explain what you're asking about.
Atticus is embedded directly into the book itself—no app-switching, no copy-pasting, no friction. You ask questions as you read, and Atticus responds using licensed content, with accurate citations, awareness of your reading progress, and the author's authentic voice.
We're launching with a curated selection of bestselling non-fiction from authors like Chase Jarvis, Mark Manson, Seth Godin, and Reid Hoffman.
Our library will grow rapidly as we onboard more authors and publishers. Want a specific title? Let us know — we're actively prioritizing books based on reader demand.
Absolutely. Atticus only uses content that is explicitly licensed. Book files remain in secure, isolated systems and are never used to train general-purpose AI models.
Authors and publishers retain full control over how their work is used — and earn new revenue from interactive editions powered by Atticus.
Yes. Your reading history, questions, and personal context are never shared or sold. We use your data only to personalize your experience in Atticus. You can delete your data at any time.
Yes — the private beta is live now. We're sending invites on a rolling basis to readers from the waitlist. Request access above and we'll reach out when your spot opens.
Pricing will be announced as we move out of private beta. Beta participants will receive founding-member pricing and other benefits when paid plans launch.
Not yet. Atticus currently works only with books in our licensed library, but we're exploring ways to let readers bring in their existing collections in the future. Have a book you want us to add? Tell us — we're listening.
