Keep the books from BookTok and Bookstagram in one reading list
"Top 5 books that shaped me" — usefull.io turns book recommendation videos into a reading list with titles, authors and the reason to read each one.
The demo works for anyone. Your own library opens with an invite: usefull.io is in early access.
Every book from that post, on your list!

What you get
- Titles and authorsPulled from speech, captions and book covers on screen.
- Why it mattersA short summary of the recommendation stays with the book.
- Any languageRussian, English and other languages in the same library.
How it works
- Share a book Reel or TikTok to usefull.io.
- usefull.io lists each book with its author, genre and summary.
- Open Books in your library when you need your next read.
Reading lists you never read
Book videos move fast: a cover, a sentence, the next cover. Saving the Reel keeps the video, but the five titles are still locked inside it.
What a reading-list card holds
Each book gets its title, author, genre and a one-line reason from the creator. Every book from a list of five, ten or twenty lands in Books on its own, with a Goodreads button and a link back to the post.
Titles are kept in the language of the source, so a Russian list stays readable to you while the summary follows your library language.
Limits
If a video only shows a cover for a split second, a title can be missed or marked as uncertain. Sending the book to Goodreads automatically is not available.
Questions
Does it read the book covers in the video?
Yes, on-screen text and covers are read together with speech and captions.
Can I search by author later?
Yes. Search your library or ask the Telegram bot by author or topic.
