What is Readlink?

Readlink is the all-in-one book app for iPhone and Android: find and track books, read the PDFs you own with highlights and notes, see your reading stats, and talk ideas in a feed built only for books. Free to download. Search the catalogue or scan a barcode to add a book, or import your Goodreads library from a profile link or CSV. Log pages in one tap and start and finish dates are set for you. Read PDFs in the app with highlights, notes, search and a table of contents. Track books, pages, streaks, a yearly goal and a heatmap of every day you read. Follow authors, get a weekly pick built from the books you finished, and browse the libraries of founders and writers. Premium adds AI reading chats, shelf and index scanning, new book alerts and advanced stats. A Goodreads and StoryGraph alternative for readers who want one app.

Mindset
If you're an indie developer that's just getting started I would say focus on p50 you want to be better than average if you're already a venture funded startup and you know you feel like you've got a pretty strong product already you probably want to focus on p75 or even P95.

Stage changes which benchmark tier to target — indie aims for P50, venture-scale targets P95

Carter explicitly calibrates benchmark ambition to company stage. A solo dev optimizing toward P95 wastes cycles chasing benchmarks set by teams 10× larger. P50 is the healthy target for a growing small app; P75-P95 is appropriate once you've raised money and need exceptional performance to justify valuation. Misalignment between stage and benchmark tier leads to either false confidence or paralysis.

Onboarding
we also made it possible to generate your own cursor rules tailored to your website in JavaScript you have this package JSON which defines all your dependencies you could just upload that and then you get your defined cursor rules back... developers wanted to tailor their cursor experience but they didn't know how to start this was a good way for developers to get the grasp of it all

Solve First-Visit Cold-Start By Generating Personalised Output From Whatever The User Uploads

They added a personalization tool where developers upload their package.json and get back custom cursor rules matched to their dependencies. This solved the 'don't know where to start' cold-start problem for first-time visitors and gave them immediate, personal value before asking for anything — turning a directory into a tool on the first click.

There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
