Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I've been a software developer since 2006. After nearly 20 years of building products for other people, Percivo is my first personal project and honestly, the one I'm most proud of. I built Percivo in November 2025 because I had three problems most readers never talk about: 📖 I'd finish a book and forget everything within a week. 💡 I'd read a great idea but have no clue how to apply it to my life. 💸 I'd spend $20 on a book, read 10 pages, and realize it wasn't for me. I've spent $500+ on books I never finished and I know I'm not alone. The third problem was the most frustrating. There was no way to know if a book was worth my time and money before committing to it. Percivo fixes that. You see exactly what a book is about, how it's structured, and whether the ideas match the way you think, before you ever buy it. The insight that changed everything: an entrepreneur and a parent read the same book completely differently. So why does every app give them the same summary? Percivo solves this with 7 perspectives per book: 🔹 Core Insights: what the book is really about and how it works 🔹 6 Lenses: Entrepreneur, Student, Parent, Busy Professional, Creative, Leader Not a summary. A prism. Since launching, users tell us they're finally finishing books and actually using what they read. One told me: "I got more out of 20 minutes on Percivo than 3 hours of reading." ✅ 2,800+ books analyzed in just 3 months ✅ Every book has a unique cover ✅ Every insight is 3–5 minutes 👉 Try Percivo free and explore your first book through your lens today. 🎁 Product Hunt Special I'm offering an exclusive discount for the PH community.
