Lingart, a platform for multilingual interactive audiobooks, and the Ukrainian Cultural Foundation have signed a memorandum of cooperation, within which they plan to increase the promotion of publications that were sold with the support of the Foundation.

To this end, the Lingart platform is ready to do a voice over for the books published through participation in UCF grant programs and work with publishers of these books on mutually beneficial terms. Available audio versions are on a platform and manufacturers are paid the royalties from sale. Non-profit publications will be available free of charge.

  • The text and audio of the book can be rewound into sentences.
  • There is an option to connect background music and special effects of comfortable volume, integration of text with dictionaries, as well as pictures, tables, tests, animation, etc.
  • The company promises to add a touch image response in the near future; the ability to create notes, reviews, share quotes with other users.
