A reading tracker for thinkers
Most reading apps care what you finished and how many stars it got. Readbinder cares what each book said— and what every other book on your shelf said about the same idea.
The angle
Tag a theme on any book. Open the concept's page and read, in one place, what each author had to say about it.
The idea that intentional action shapes future experience — treated very differently across the traditions you’ve been reading.
Karma is the discipline of action without attachment to the fruit — not fatalism, but the practice of acting fully without being owned by the outcome.
Frames cause and effect as a hermetic principle — less ethical, more mechanical. "Nothing escapes the law."
Treats karmic continuity as evidence for survival — the same intentional self carrying forward across lives.
What's in v1
Status, dates, genre tags, cover, and markdown notes. Nothing social. No streaks. No gamification.
A per-book note on each concept. The concept's page shows every author's take side by side.
