Book translation is a job, not another subscription.
Kitab AI is built for the occasional, expensive job of translating a complete EPUB. The product keeps the workflow focused on one outcome: upload a book and get an Arabic edition back in a format suited to Kindle reading.
Arabic is part of the structure from the start.
RTL behavior is treated as a product requirement rather than a finishing pass. The interface, book structure, and output flow are designed around Arabic content so the translated file remains useful after the AI step is finished.
Pay per use matches the shape of the work.
A full book is not something most people translate every month. The product therefore uses pay-per-use pricing instead of forcing a recurring subscription onto an occasional task.
A focused pipeline around EPUB, AI, and RTL output.
The frontend is built with Next.js around an EPUB processing and AI translation workflow. The implementation keeps book-format handling and Arabic layout concerns visible in the product instead of hiding them behind a generic upload form.
The public landing experience keeps upload, immediate pricing context, and Arabic Kindle-ready output in one focused first step.
The product explains its visible quality controls, terminology support, and RTL formatting without exposing private processing internals.
A public side-by-side sample makes the translation styles and Arabic reading result concrete before upload.
