Opportunity
A cultural product in response to declining interest in reading and writing.
Vicobook emerged at Scotland's Robert Gordon University under the guidance of Vinyet Miró, who presented the idea of a collaborative writing application in her thesis. This idea was embraced by the RGU Startup Accelerator Programme, which mentored and funded the project.
Solution
A global digital and cultural literary experience.
Vicobook is not just a product for creating collaborative writing projects but an experience that connects people from around the world, creating a global literary culture community.
Project Start
Team creation with specific roles.
Project creation is a collaborative effort, with users having predefined roles that suit their writing needs, ensuring a correct and efficient project development.
Project Development
Writing interface and adapted tools.
Collective writing converges in an interface accessible to the entire team, with tools tailored to each role and specific features to develop the project.
Project Completion
Project publication in the app's library.
Once projects are completed, collective writing teams decide whether to publish them in the community library for other users to read and comment on their works.
Solution
Private workspaces.
Vicobook offers the option to create workspaces for specific groups of users. This is particularly useful in educational settings, universities, and writing clubs.
Result
The EIC Accelerator's support validates the innovative nature of the product.
