Any book can be converted into the Blio format. Once created, getting your book into the marketplace in a digital format is as easy as sending a file and providing basic metadata.

With Blio, publishers can:
- Enable text to speech for read-aloud performances and synchronize unabridged audio with digital text to create a new product of print plus audio.
- Insert video or audio clips, or interactive Web pages.
- Use voice painting to create a computer-generated, multi-character listening experience.
- Engage readers more fully by enabling social networking within a book.
- Brand the reader software specifically for a book, series or imprint.
