01 · ABOUT

A twenty-one billion dollar market. One infrastructure.

We exist because global demand for Asian storytelling has outpaced every system built to serve it. Fragmented vendors. Dormant backlogs. Revenue lost to piracy. We are the single rail that replaces all of it.

We believethe world's fastest-growing storytelling market should not be stitched together out of translation agencies, legal teams, and spreadsheets.

We believe the publishers who built Asia's libraries, Qimao, Storinlab, Munpia, deserve one partner who can carry a catalog from source text to English reader, and defend it on the way.

We believe every English reader is a signal. Every chapter read, every drop-off, every piracy hit is data no publisher has ever owned. We own it now.

Babel

Translation, per-IP tuned.

AI plus human-in-the-loop translation. Each series gets its own voice-tuned model that learns terminology, register, and character idiom chapter over chapter. Days, not months. Publisher-grade quality at a tenth of the cost.

03 · TECHNOLOGY

Designed to compound.

Every layer feeds the next. More titles produce more reader signal. More signal improves translation tuning, acquisition targeting, and enforcement precision. The loop tightens with scale.
01
Per-IP memory
Each series builds its own translation memory. Terminology, voice, character register, preserved across chapters, across translators, across years.
02
Reader telemetry
Chapter drop-off, paywall conversion, genre affinity, read-through rates. Signal no publisher has ever owned on their own IP.
03
Piracy demand index
Titles pirated at high volume but absent from the platform become acquisition leads. Demand before supply.
04
Enforcement automation
Continuous scanning, template-driven DMCA and local equivalents, verified removal. Enforcement runs as a service, not a legal project.
05
Unified identity
One contract, one publisher integration, one revenue report, regardless of how many layers are in use.
