A Single Portal to Digital Content and Social Activity

Copia is the first platform to seamlessly merge social media and digital content, with features such as a digital bookstore with a vast content catalog, note-taking and sharing, group chat, online book clubs, library comparison, activity feeds, unique self-publishing tools, user recommendations, a proprietary community value system, and more. Copia users enjoy a singular, wholly shareable on-line experience -- all their media, all their friends, all in one application.

Copia is a self-­contained social network that links to existing Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn accounts as well, so users can easily share content across major social networks and connect with others with similar tastes and interests.

Copia has a substantial content catalog, currently featuring over 9.2 million electronic and physical books and 9 million songs, as well as over 15,000 digital textbooks from leading educational publishers. But Copia is about more than just books: it has been developed to aggregate content from a multiplicity of sources -- magazines, newspapers, music, games, movies, and more -- into a seamless user experience.

Copia is a hardware-­neutral platform: multiple devices offer the same content experience, and users can choose their own hardware. Users can access content on all their devices, and Copia keeps everything up to date through the cloud. Copia is available now on a multiplicity of devices, including desktop readers, iPad, Windows 7 touch, Android tablets, and the Blackberry Playbook.
