Media Partnership
This interview is in media partnership with the CONTENTshif accelerator program ( https://www.contentshift.de/en/accelerator/programme/for-startups/ ), which we follow since its inception. CONTENTshift is the accelerator program of the German Book Publishers and Printers Association. Below you will find more interviews from past batches. We used to record the interviews directly at Frankfurt Book Fair, but since it is canceled this year due to Corona, we resorted to remote only interviews. At the time of the recording, we did not know who won the final award. The winner of this year's batch is SciFlow ( https://www.contentshift.de/en/contentshift/news/congratulations-to-sciflow/ ). We will publish the exclusive interview with them as the last of our series this year.

The Startup
The startup Scriptbakery ( https://www.scriptbakery.de/ ) is founded by an agency, also working in the publishing business. Scriptbakery is an AI, which can read, classify, and deduce the emotions of a reader from a script, turned in for publication. This allows publishing houses to evaluate the flood of scripts coming their way so they can have a broader selection of publications and maybe find the next bestseller. Right now, only 2% of turned in manuscripts are actually read at all. Scriptbakery is out to change this, for more published authors and more and better books for the bookworms out there (disclaimer, Joe is also a bookworm, but converted to audiobooks a few years ago).
The best part of CONTENTshift was for us the networking with the German publishing scene.

Venture Capital Funding
Scriptbakery is looking for external investors, especially for their international expansion. The startup is funded by a private investor and the state of Baden-Württemberg.
