Case Studies

Atlantic Publishers, a respected name in India’s publishing ecosystem, wanted to enter the self-publishing market - a space growing rapidly with aspiring authors eager for control over their work. The challenge was to design a platform that would give writers the ability to create, customize, and publish their own books with professional-grade precision, while being simple, intuitive, and scalable.

Self-publishing is not just about printing a book - it’s about empowering authors. Writers crave flexibility: from choosing formats and paper quality to designing covers and setting their own price points. To succeed, the platform had to combine publishing-grade capabilities with consumer-grade simplicity, making it accessible for first-time authors while robust enough for professionals.

We developed Storydea.com, a complete self-publishing ecosystem built in PHP with an intuitive frontend and robust backend:

• Author Dashboard: Allowed users to register, create, and manage their books in a dedicated workspace.
• Customization Options: Enabled authors to define every detail - dimensions, size, paper quality, paperback or hardbound, colored or black-and-white.
• Cover & Page Design Tools: Provided an easy-to-use interface to design covers and format each page of the manuscript with professional accuracy.
• On-Demand Flexibility: Authors could set the number of copies they wanted and decide their own pricing.
• Automated Costing: The system calculated real-time publishing costs based on specifications, ensuring transparency.
• Administration & Reporting: Delivered a full admin console for publishers to track projects, manage data, and generate reports seamlessly.

• Empowered Authors: Writers could now design, review, and finalize their books without external dependency.
• Complete Publishing Control: From cover to content, authors enjoyed end-to-end flexibility in bringing their vision to life.
• Client Satisfaction: The platform met Atlantic Publishers’ expectations and was lauded as a technologically advanced, user-friendly solution.

This project wasn’t just about building a website - it was about reimagining publishing for the digital era. With Storydea, OMLogic enabled Atlantic Publishers to enter the self-publishing market with a platform that put power, creativity, and control in the hands of authors. It stands as one of the most advanced publishing tools in India, bridging the gap between aspiring writers and professional publishing.
