Bookmenti was created by Jonathan, founder of Eggvelop, a Danish software company that builds and runs its own products. Bookmenti is one of them.
"I listen to a lot of business podcasts, and great books get mentioned all the time. The problem is that I always forget to write them down. I am usually driving, walking, or in the middle of something when it happens, and by the end of the episode the title is gone.
And when a book gets mentioned twice, by different people on different shows, I want to read it even more. That felt like a signal worth tracking.
So I got curious: which books actually get mentioned the most in the podcasts I listen to? There was no good way to know. That is why I built Bookmenti, to learn and understand exactly that, and to finally get a proper overview."
That personal itch became the product: a site where every mention is caught automatically, tied to the episode it came from, and counted, so the signal of repeated mentions becomes visible to everyone.
What began as a personal overview now runs as a daily, automated pipeline: open podcast feeds in, word level transcripts, and a custom LLM layer that hunts for book mentions in every new episode. If you want the full picture of how it works under the hood, read what is Bookmenti.
Bookmenti is built and operated by Eggvelop (Eggvelop ApS, CVR 44287463), based in Denmark. Eggvelop builds its own software products, and Bookmenti is the one for everyone who loves both podcasts and books.
