Showing — publishers
Free Outreach Service
Let us find your publisher
Describe your book. We match it to 10–15 publishers and send personalised submission letters on your behalf. Free for the first 50 authors.
1,163 publishers across 21 countries. Real contacts, real submission links. A gift to every author who should be spending more time writing.
A lot of people teach in villages. They join Teach For India. They try to help one person at a time. We believe you can create the same impact — at scale. Build something that helps thousands of authors find their publisher, for free, forever.
If you'd like to take this from us and build it into something full — more than we ever imagined — come work with us. We'll share it, build it together, and figure out how to sustain it. The directory stays free. Everything else is a conversation.
You can give your time. Your skills. Or simply share it with one author who needs it.
Especially in the Global South. Build the directory. Make it free. Do it again.
We call these gap marketplaces — markets that clearly should exist but don't. We're working on 1,000 of them. Each one is a concept someone straight out of college could start as their first business. Each one saves human hours. Each one makes a small piece of the world more legible.
We believe curated marketplaces — where someone has done the homework, organised the information, and made it obvious — are one of the most useful things we can build. BookVani is one example. There are 999 more waiting.
A close friend, Kunal, had a great job at Amazon. He quit to teach underprivileged children in villages. Noble? Absolutely. Scalable? No.
That question — "what if we used technology, the biggest lever we have, to create impact at scale?" — led to GapMarketplaces. A thesis that every information gap is a marketplace opportunity.
We built GapDoc — a medical travel startup connecting patients with affordable, verified healthcare abroad. Now we're doing the same for publishing. Taking information that's already out there — scattered, unorganised, overwhelming — and making it obvious, curated, and free.
We identified the publishers who actually respond. Verified them. Organised them. Made the intelligence accessible. We've done the homework so you don't have to.
BookVani is a project of Mahabir Group, founded by Saurabh Maskara — entrepreneur, founder, and author.
To keep the lights on and the servers running, we need money. Our view: information stays free, services built on top pay the bills. If you'd like to support this — as a grant, an investment, or a conversation — write to us at press@saurabhmaskara.com.
