About Us

What We Do

Pandamian builds web-based publishing software for book writers. We take care of the technological bits of publishing a book to the web, so writers can focus on what they do best.

We're doing this because we believe writers are the new publishers. Writers do not explicitly need a publisher (not in this day and age, at least) but writing a book without one should still be simple, easy, and fun.

We're building the technology to make that happen.

Pandamian is in BETA. This means that things may be broken, functionality may be wonky, and we're always adding new features. Please email us if something explodes (really, please do!)
