Our take
Reedsy helps authors find top publishers, editors, designers, translators and marketers. The company has built a community of over 1 million authors and due to the innovation of its service, it has been funded by the European Union through the EU's Horizon 2020 R&I program.
Reedsy stands out through helping authors at every stage of the publishing journey. The company offers various free tools in order to support authors - it offers insights into the writing craft on its blog, free writing courses on Reedsy Learning and its publishing professionals answer FAQ via video on Reedsy Live.
Reedsy also differentiates itself through its commitment to take climate action by reducing its carbon emissions - its a fully remote company that rarely organises in-person meetings, it supports responsible business travel by choosing trains over planes with economy class flights only and it supports vegan catering and snacks.

Company values
- When we set out to build Reedsy, we want to help more people bring their ideas into life and publish in a professional fashion. We didn't have a clear idea of what our culture should be — our focus was on the product, and the successive hires we made helped us define our culture
- Today, we have a multicultural team of over 40 people, who come from all continents and speak over 15 languages. They're concise communicators and autonomous individuals. They care about being excellent at what they do. Lastly, they have a sense of meaning — Reedsy's goal is to support a whole generation of creators
- We’re entrepreneurs, designers, writers, hackers, bikers, engineers, runners, developers, soccer analysts, musicians, photographers, readers, travelers, gardeners, knitters, hikers, campers, and hard workers. Come make this list longer :)

I feel autonomy is one of Reedsy's most important characteristics. The company trusts each employee and gives them the freedom to do their work. You are also encouraged to come up with new things you want to work on, giving you the chance to create your challenges.

Autonomy

At Reedsy you can find talented people. They are all very knowledgeable about what they do, but they are also always willing to help and explain things if necessary. They are also super creative. For example, creating Bookdle for April fools was amazing!

Being a completely remote company you can find people from all backgrounds in Reedsy. It is also something encouraged by the company, having a more diverse team has allowed us to come up with more creative ideas and solutions.

With not much experience in community management, everything was new to me. But this meant that I had the opportunity to learn a lot. And even today, there are always new things to learn, making it exciting to be part of a dynamic team!

Reedsy took a chance on me despite having no prior experience in customer support and community management. I was allowed to make mistakes, learn, pitch ideas, argue, and give contrary opinions. The support through it all has been helpful and pretty great.

Supportive management

I work in a 100% distributed remote company. Before Covid, I travelled with my work, and it was wonderful! I got to explore new cultures and people without having to take an extended holiday. This also means flexible working hours. Somedays, I manage to log in a few dives and start working a bit later in the day.
