# Plumerie

> Plumerie is a free personal library management app for readers who own books, lend books, and share their shelves with family.

## What Plumerie does

- Catalog your book collection using barcode scanning or ISBN search
- Organize books across multiple physical locations (living room, bedroom, office, storage, kids' room)
- Track reading status: unread, currently reading, finished, did not finish
- Manage loans: record who has your book, when it's due back, and mark it returned
- Share a family library with real-time sync across household members
- Keep a want list of books to find, borrow, or buy someday
- Add personal notes and star ratings to any book
- Export your full library as a CSV file at any time, on any plan

## Who it's for

Plumerie is for people who own books and want to keep track of them — not just track what they've read. It's for collectors, multi-shelf households, families who share a single book collection, and readers who regularly lend and borrow.

## How it differs from Goodreads or StoryGraph

Goodreads and StoryGraph are reading trackers built around discovery, social reading, and ratings. Plumerie is a library manager: it cares about physical ownership, where books live on your shelves, who has borrowed them, and whether your household can find them. It is not a social reading platform.

## Pricing

Plumerie (personal) and Plumerie Family are free — not free trials. No artificial limits, no reminders to upgrade. Plumerie Plus (€29.99/yr or €79.99 lifetime) and Plumerie Family Plus (€44.99/yr) are live and add unlimited books, unlimited Shelf Scans, advanced semantic search, advanced reading stats, and Book Lab tools.
