Submission declined on 3 September 2024 by SafariScribe (talk). This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. Declined by SafariScribe 5 months ago.

Everand is a digital content subscription service that offers ebooks^[1], audiobooks, podcasts, magazines, newspapers, and sheet music. It is accessible through web browsers, iOS, and Android devices, with additional support for Apple Watch. Everand is a subsidiary of Scribd, Inc. and operates as one of the company’s distinct products.^[2]

Everand was launched in 2023 as part of Scribd, Inc.'s unbundling strategy,^[3] which separated its offerings into three distinct products: Scribd, Everand, and SlideShare. Scribd, Inc. was originally founded in 2007 by Trip Adler^[4], Jared Friedman, and Tikhon Bernstam as a platform for hosting and sharing documents. Over time, Scribd evolved into a subscription-based service for ebooks, audiobooks, and other digital content.

The creation of Everand was aimed at providing a curated and personalized experience for readers and listeners,^[5] leveraging Scribd’s existing technological infrastructure and publishing partnerships. Since its inception, Everand has expanded its catalog to include over 1.5 million titles, encompassing both works from renowned publishers and independent authors.^{[6] [7]}

Everand’s catalog spans a wide range of genres and formats, including:

• Books: Fiction and non-fiction titles across genres such as mystery, romance, self-improvement, business, and science fiction.
• Audiobooks: Narrated versions of popular and classic books.
• Podcasts: A collection of podcasts covering various topics.
• Magazines and Newspapers: Access to articles from well-known publications.
• Sheet Music: A library for musicians and hobbyists.

The platform also offers Everand Originals^[8], a series of exclusive works developed in collaboration with established and emerging authors, including Roxane Gay.

1. Cross-Platform Access: Everand can be accessed on web browsers, iOS, Android devices, and Apple Watch. Content can also be downloaded for offline use.
2. Customization Tools: Users can personalize their reading or listening experience with adjustable font sizes, color themes, and sleep timers for audiobooks.
3. Recommendation System: The platform uses algorithms to suggest content based on user preferences and previous activity. ^[9]
4. Social Integration: Readers can create custom reading lists and share recommendations with others.

Everand operates on a subscription-based model, granting users access to its library for a monthly fee. Subscribers can access all three Scribd, Inc. products (Scribd, Everand, and SlideShare) under a single subscription plan. Some titles on Everand may have monthly usage limits, while others, including Everand Originals, are available without restrictions.

However, starting in early 2025, Everand will transition from its unlimited subscription model to a credit-based system^[10] in the United States, with plans for international expansion shortly thereafter. ^[11]

Everand collaborates with numerous publishers and content creators worldwide, providing access to a diverse array of books, audiobooks, and other media. Its partnerships include agreements with major publishing houses as well as independent authors^[12][13], ensuring a broad and inclusive content library^[14].

Since its launch, Everand has been noted for its diverse catalog and user-friendly interface, receiving positive feedback ^[15]for its exclusive content and integration with Scribd’s broader ecosystem^[16]. However, the platform’s subscription model and limitations on certain titles have been points of discussion among users^[17] and reviewers. ^[18][19]
