Spines is an Israeli startup that offers a single platform to help any author proofread, cover design, format, print, and distribute over global channels. The firm raised $16 million in a Series A funding round led by Zeev Ventures, with participation from existing investors Aleph, M-Fund and LionTree.
Basically, Spines allows authors to “self-publish” their own works, even if they have no tech skills at all. Self-publishing is a process where an author independently publishes their work, bypassing traditional publishing houses. It offers greater control, flexibility, and potential for higher royalties.
“With Spines, your story reaches beyond borders, making an impact globally. We’re not just a publishing house; we’re a community of storytellers and dreamers, turning aspirations into legacies. Ready for a transformative journey? Say hi to Spines – where your publishing dreams become reality.”
