For students with too many books on the syllabus
BookSweep takes your books, your semester dates, and the days you actually read. It gives you one calm reading list — every day, until the syllabus is done.
Works offline. No account. No tracking.
Six books. Three classes. Eleven weeks left. You do the math in your head and it doesn't go well.
So you skim. You skip. You hit the week before finals carrying a backlog you can't actually catch up on — and your grades show it.
BookSweep does the math for you, every day, automatically.
How it works
Start date, end date, and which days of the week you actually read. Saturdays off? Done.
Scan the ISBN on the back, or type it in. BookSweep pulls the title, author, and page count automatically.
Each morning, a calm list of exactly what to read, by book, by page range. Knock it out and move on.
Designed to disappear
BookSweep is built like a calm reading checklist, not a game. The only number on the home screen is the page range you're reading today.
What's inside
Skip a Tuesday? BookSweep redistributes the missed pages across your remaining reading days. No guilt math.
Point the camera at the back of the book. Title, author, and page count fill in from Open Library.
A small color dot tells you which class each session belongs to, without screaming for attention.
A single tap turns "I'm 80 pages behind" into a plan that finishes on time.
Got a midterm on chapters 1–9 by week six? Set a per-book due date and the schedule respects it.
Your reading list lives on your device. No account, no sync server, no tracking, no analytics.
Why we built it
"I had eight books due in eleven weeks. I needed a tool that did the math, then got out of the way. Nothing did. So I built BookSweep."
— D. Riner, builder
