I watched authors get permanently banned from Amazon. So we built TikiRead

Hey everyone! My co-founder and I have been deep in indie author communities and kept seeing the same horror stories authors using review exchange platforms, getting flagged for review manipulation, and losing their Amazon accounts permanently. Reviews gone, books delisted, years of work undone overnight.

The problem wasn't the concept of review exchanges. It was how they were built. Direct swaps and credit loops are exactly what Amazon's bots are trained to catch.

So we built TikiRead, authors launch campaigns, readers earn points for honest reviews, no direct swaps between the same two people. Reviewers have to submit the full review text and live Amazon URL before getting any credit, with accountability built in at every step.

Free tier to try it out, launching officially on Product Hunt next Tuesday (June 23). Would love feedback from this community before then: tikiread.com
