How it works
Set up in minutes. Useful for life.
Most home library apps make you type every book by hand. Shelfmade uses your phone camera and AI to do the work — so a serious library of hundreds or thousands of books becomes a project of an afternoon, not a year.

Scan
Point your phone at a barcode for a single book, or photograph an entire shelf with the AI scanner. Shelfmade reads every visible spine and queues them for one-tap import.
Works with any ISBN-13 barcode and most paperback or hardcover spines. Offline barcode scanning means you're never stuck in a bookstore basement without signal.

Catalog
Covers, authors, page counts, publication years, and genres fill in automatically. You assign rooms or shelves once, and Shelfmade remembers where every book lives.
Metadata comes from a curated book database covering tens of millions of titles. You can edit anything, add notes, rate books, and mark reading status — currently reading, finished, did not finish, or wishlist.

Own it
Lend books with a tap, get a gentle nudge when one is overdue, see duplicate alerts before you buy, and discover books you've owned for years and never opened.
Share a beautiful public library profile, export your data anytime, and never buy the same book twice. Your library becomes something you actually use — not just store.
