AUDIOBOOKING IN SMALL LANGUAGE MARKETS
AMPLIFYING SOUTH SLAVIC VOICES SINCE 2019
We don’t just translate content; we localize it with cultural nuance and authenticity.
At book&zvook, we believe in the power of stories to inspire, educate, and entertain. We have created a seamless platform that blends books and sound to bring an unparalleled reading and listening experience to book lovers worldwide. Whether you are a reader, listener, or both, our mission is to elevate the way you engage with literature.
In addition to promoting literature and books, book&zvook is not only an application for listening to them but also a kind of digital audio archive, an audio treasury of Croatian literature.
We’ve operated for over 5 years in one of Europe's most linguistically complex markets.
book&zvook is a pioneering audiobook platform designed specifically for the Croatian language and other closely related South Slavic languages. As the first Croatian audiobook platform and app, we are committed to bringing literature to life through expertly crafted audiobooks that blend advanced technology with exceptional narration.
Our mobile app offers seamless distribution, ensuring our audiobooks reach a global audience while honoring the richness of linguistic and cultural heritage. We take pride in our culturally sensitive production model, which merges cutting-edge technology with a profound understanding of linguistic and cultural nuances. By balancing innovation with authenticity, we’ve created a scalable blueprint for producing audiobooks in underrepresented languages.
More than a platform, book&zvook is a cultural endeavor—we have cultivated an audiobook market where none existed before.
Giving Every Language a Voice
Our mission is to revolutionize how people consume stories by integrating cutting-edge technology with traditional storytelling. We deeply understand the complexity of small languages and are dedicated to giving them a strong presence in the digital world. Through innovation, speed, and flexibility, we ensure that books are available in multiple languages, making literature more inclusive and accessible to all.
A Passion for Books, A Vision for the Future
book&zvook, founded by Ljubica Letinić and Lana Deban, is the cornerstone of the Croatian audiobook market. The platform offers over 150 audiobooks, there have been 20,000 active users yearly by 2025, and 40,000 app downloads.
book&zvook was born out of a deep passion for literature and a desire to bridge the gap between traditional and digital storytelling. Recognizing the challenges faced by small and minority languages in the global literary market, we set out to create a platform that provides accessibility, quality, and innovation in reading and listening experiences. Committing to preserving linguistic diversity, we have crafted a solution that empowers authors, publishers, and readers alike.
By weaving the best of analog culture into the digital world, we foster a thriving local scene and build a space where literature, performance, and technology meet.
