General Questions

Pace Up is an app that provides summaries of popular non-fiction books in both text and audio format. Our summaries capture the essential ideas, insights, and takeaways, allowing you to absorb key knowledge in a fraction of the time it takes to read the entire book.

Our summaries are carefully crafted by a team of professional writers and editors who read the original books in their entirety. We focus on extracting the most valuable insights and presenting them in a clear, concise, and engaging way. Each summary undergoes a thorough review process to ensure accuracy and quality.

Yes, all our book summaries are available in both text and audio formats. You can switch between reading and listening based on your preference or situation. Our audio summaries are professionally narrated for a pleasant listening experience.

We offer different summary length options to suit your needs:

  • 5-minute essentials: Quick overview of the book's core concepts
  • 15-minute standard: Comprehensive coverage of main ideas and key takeaways
  • 30-minute detailed: In-depth exploration of the book's concepts, examples, and applications

Pace Up is designed to complement, not replace, reading full books. Our summaries provide the essential ideas and insights, making them perfect for busy individuals who want to gain knowledge efficiently. However, for books you're deeply interested in, we encourage reading the original work for the full context, examples, and depth that the author provides.

Pace Up currently focuses exclusively on non-fiction books. The nature of fiction makes it difficult to provide meaningful summaries without diminishing the storytelling experience. We believe that fiction is best enjoyed in its complete form, while non-fiction can be effectively condensed to deliver key insights.
