Lit-X

About Lit-X.

Lit-X brings AI and Data Science to the publishing industry. We help publishers and booksellers to analyze and predict literature success. We are a pre-seed start-up based in Hamburg that has gained some traction as part of the MediaLift Accelerator and as a finalist (hopefully winner in October) of the CONTENTshift competition. Go-to-market is planned for September. With two ex-BCGers as founders (Lars Leipson, Sebastian Hermanns) we have a strong ambition and performance orientation yet also know how to balance this well with a good and enjoyable life.

Vision

"Support literature professionals' intuition and experience with AI & analytics."

We recognize the need of intuition and experience in an art-based business field such as literature (publishing).

However, we do believe that AI & analytics can help to guide intuition and to complement experience. They can add reliability over time, compensate for limited market knowledge, create repeatable results, and save a ton of time and frustration.

We aim towards reaching this vision by providing AI-enhanced literature data in our two product lines: Success Analytics and Success Prediction.
