Hi Product Hunt,
I'm Derek, founder of ThePeopleBook.
I built ThePeopleBook because I kept seeing the same problem: a lot of useful nonfiction never becomes a book. It stays with people who have actually lived through something, but most of them are not going to write a full manuscript alone. They are busy, they may not think of themselves as writers, or they just do not know where to start.
ThePeopleBook gives them a way to do it with other people. Editors, writers, and people who know the subject firsthand work together chapter by chapter, from the first idea to a finished manuscript.
That is also why I still believe in books. The way information moves has changed, and AI makes it easy to ask for a quick summary, but a summary is not the same as reading. You still have to spend time with the argument, the details, and the voice behind it. Otherwise, the thinking gets outsourced too.
A few things I care about:
It is real collaboration between real people, not a content farm.

I'd really like blunt feedback. And if you have ever thought about turning your own experience into a book but did not know where to start, I would like to hear from you.
