getAbstract
Normally talking about getAbstract is talking about an unknown company, at least in the general field, but far from being true, getAbstract is a great company in the business world and from other areas where it is fed by large indexes and summaries of books and economic news, Law, etc ...
The current catalog of getAbstract has more than 14.000 volumes of abstracts and books worked on, a large catalog that feeds many companies and businesses with its information. Well, this company is now a little bit more of Rakuten thanks to the participation that the company has bought. This assumes that there is a slightly closer relationship between Kobo and getAbstract or there will be a great relationship so to speak.
Rakuten's stake in getAbstract is still small but significant
We cannot say that getAbstract is another Rakuten parent company, but it is true that Rakuten has an important part of shares that will enable getAbstract to participate or join forces with Kobo and its ebook catalog. This means that gestAbstract could summarize many ebooks in the Kobo catalog or simply create improved indexes as extra services on the OverDrive platform, a tool that is more useful than usual or so we think.
This may not be the only news we will hear in the next few weeks in relation to getAbstract and quite possibly everything ends with the total purchase of the company by Rakuten, something that could happen since the Asian company has enough power (money) to do it.
In any case, it seemed to all of us that Rakuten was doing nothing and in recent days we have seen how the parent company of Kobo and Kobo itself are preparing great things, now well Will your customers like this?
