A few months ago, we started working with a team that is deeply committed to helping their authors succeed, not just with getting a book into the world, but with building a brand and growing a community around it.
They’d built a strong foundation with print and eBooks running smoothly. But there was a gap, one that their authors were starting to notice. “Can I turn my book into an audiobook?” “I’ve built a podcast following; how can I meet them where they are?” The publisher had the demand. What they didn’t have was a scalable way to meet it, until now.
That’s where FuturiBooks came in.
We teamed up to create a path for their authors to bring their books to life through high-quality, AI-narrated audio branded under the publisher’s name and delivered through their own platform. While advanced AI voices bring speed and affordability, our human feedback loop brings the nuance, oversight, and quality control that ensure the final product sounds not just “good for AI” but truly listener-ready. The first project was a test, and we can’t wait for what’s next.
And it worked. The author had a fully narrated audiobook within days, not weeks or months. It was polished, emotionally engaging, and ready for a new audience of listeners who prefer audio. Best of all, it lived within the publisher’s own ecosystem. No redirect to a third-party platform. No loss of creative control or brand equity. No overhead added to their team.
That one title sparked something bigger. Now they’re looking across their catalog, identifying which books are ready for audio, and giving their authors new ways to expand their reach and revenue.
To scale this momentum, we’re building a co-branded landing page, a dedicated space for the publisher to showcase the audiobook offering to their authors, answer FAQs, and simplify the process of getting involved. It’s easy to use, aligned to their visual identity, and built to drive adoption without putting extra work on their internal team. The goal is simple: make it ridiculously easy for authors to raise their hand and say, “Yes, I want in.”
This is exactly why we built FuturiBooks: to give publishers a simple, smart, and fast way to bring audiobooks into their offering, without breaking their workflow or budget.
And it couldn’t be happening at a better time. More than half of U.S. adults listen to audiobooks, and that number keeps growing. The global audiobook market is projected to reach $35.5 billion by 2030. In 2024 alone, revenue grew by 13%, outpacing both print and eBooks. The demand is there, but most publishers aren’t set up to move quickly in this space, and that’s where we come in.
FuturiBooks helps you turn your existing titles into fully produced audiobooks in days. The narration is powered by advanced AI that sounds remarkably human, but we’re not just chasing tech for the sake of it. We care about discoverability, brand integrity, and making sure your content shows up well in AI-driven search, smart assistants, and wherever audio is consumed.
Everything we build is structured, fast, mobile-optimized, and easy to manage. You stay in control. Your authors stay front and center. And your audience gets access to content in the format they increasingly prefer,on their commute, at the gym, or just living life.
If you’ve been thinking about how to offer audio to your authors without reinventing your business, this is your moment. Start with one book. We’ll handle the heavy lifting, and you’ll see just how easy it can be to bring your content to new ears.
