Some journeys don’t begin with a grand plan. They begin with a quiet spark—a belief that something meaningful can be built through consistency, care, and love for the craft. Bookdio is one such journey.
Today, Bookdio.org stands as a growing platform for audiobook summaries and short-form literary content, designed to help people find a few moments of peace, insight, or inspiration. But behind this emerging platform are two individuals—Nikhil and Tejaswini—who brought this idea to life, step by step.
We sat down with Tejaswini, co-founder of Bookdio, to talk about the beginnings, the heart behind the work, and the surprising growth the platform has seen—all without spending a single rupee on marketing.
Q: Tejaswini, what makes Bookdio different from other content platforms out there?
Tejaswini:
At Bookdio, we’re not just pushing content—we’re creating emotional experiences. Our focus is on helping readers feel something in just five minutes. Whether it’s through an audiobook summary or a short piece of writing, we want our users to reconnect with themselves.
We think of each summary as a “me-time” moment—an emotional pause in the middle of a busy day.
Q: Tell us about how it all started. What’s the origin story of Bookdio?
Tejaswini:
It all started with Nikhil. He had this deep belief that we could build something meaningful from scratch. Back in April 2024, when we had just begun, we were only getting 30 to 50 users a day. But that never discouraged him. He kept working on the platform day and night, consistently, with a calm and focused energy.
Q: You’ve seen huge growth recently. Tell us more about that.
Tejaswini:
Yes! It’s been exactly a year since we began working on Bookdio. And the growth we’ve seen in the past few months has been surreal. In just the last three months alone, over 1 million users have discovered and engaged with Bookdio.
What’s even more amazing is that it’s been completely organic. We haven’t spent any money on marketing or promotions. This growth is purely from the strength of our content and the support of our users.
Q: What roles did Nikhil handle in building the platform?
Tejaswini:
Pretty much everything! Platform development, SEO, designing, content data, social media—he wore all the hats. His consistency was what really kept things moving. Even when challenges popped up (which they often did), he didn’t stop. He just kept showing up and pushing forward.
Q: And how did that impact you personally, watching this happen?
Tejaswini:
It left a deep impression on me. Nikhil has this quiet kind of passion—it’s not loud, but it’s constant. Watching him navigate through setbacks with calmness and purpose has taught me a lot. I’m really grateful to be part of this with him.
Q: What’s the long-term vision for Bookdio?
Tejaswini:
We want to keep building a space where people can experience powerful stories and insights in just a few minutes. We’re expanding our content library, exploring different formats, and collaborating with more creators.
Our mission is to make personal growth and storytelling more accessible and emotionally resonant for everyone.
Q: Is there a message you’d like to share with your audience?
Tejaswini:
Absolutely. To every person who has visited, listened, shared, or supported Bookdio—thank you. You are the reason this platform is growing.
And to Nikhil: thank you for believing in this dream from day one. Bookdio exists today because of that belief, your consistency, and the calm dedication you’ve shown through it all.
Q: Finally, in a nutshell, what is Bookdio?
Tejaswini:
