People bring Kotobee in for an education publisher whose distribution channel is a branded app installed by schools rather than a retail ebook store, a training department delivering interactive course material with embedded assessment to a known set of employees, a publisher in a market where regional retail ebook channels are weak and direct institutional sales dominate, an organisation that needs access control and device limits on material it cannot distribute openly. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Kotobee are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for Kotobee
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at On request. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Kotobee runs on windows, macos, web, ios, android, and is published by Kotobee of Cairo, Egypt. The full record is on the Kotobee review, and the rest of the category is under best publishing tools.
