Shelfsort

A quieter way to organize ebooks

Your EPUBs,
sorted by fandom.

Got a Downloads folder full of nameless EPUBs? Shelfsort reads the metadata and uses AI to file them by Harry Potter, Twilight, Marvel, original fiction, and anything else hiding in there. Then it gives them a home — a clean reader, a year-end recap, friends to talk about them with, the works.

A cozy reading nook with a sage-green armchair, plum cushion, and books stacked on a sunlit wood floor

AI + metadata

EPUB metadata first, Claude as a quiet second opinion when the title alone won't tell.

Folders that feel right

Fanfiction nests by fandom. Original fiction and non-fiction stay tidy on their own shelves.

Take it with you

Download a perfectly organized ZIP — your library, on any device, anywhere.

More than a sorter

A whole little world for your reading life.

Shelfsort is built for people who read the way you do — bouncing between a 200k-word AO3 fic, a non-fic on the nightstand, and three half-read novels. Here's what you get the second you sign in.

Year in Books, Wrapped

A nine-slide cinematic recap at the end of every year — books opened, pages turned, longest streak, top fandom, top author, bookends. Download it as a PNG, paste it into Threads or iMessage, watch friends ask what you've been reading.

A reader that respects your eyes

EPUB, PDF, TXT and DOCX all open inline. Reading position syncs across devices, bookmarks remember the chapter you loved, dark mode follows your OS, and there are zero ads. Ever.

Goals & streaks (gently)

Set a goal of 30 books, or 200 hours, or a fandom marathon. We track quietly, fire confetti when you hit it, and never guilt-trip you on a Tuesday.

Friends who actually read

Pick a one-of-a-kind @handle, add friends by username, see how many books overlap with theirs, send recs, share a peek at your shelf — all opt-in, all revocable.

Book clubs, with chapters

Spin up a private room, pick the book, set a chapter-per-week pace. We auto-post discussion prompts, members chat inline, and a weekly digest email keeps the slow readers in the loop.

Fix messy metadata, in place

Title got mangled by an AO3 export? Author shows as “Unknown”? Edit it in two clicks — corrections are rewritten into the EPUB itself, so when you re-download or send to a friend, the fix travels with the file.

What it looks like

Three messy folders in. Three tidy shelves out.

Here's the same library a friend tested with on day one — 11 EPUBs dropped in as a single zip, organized in under a minute. No tagging, no renaming, no Calibre wrestling.
