COGNITIVE DATA INTELLIGENCE

The first publishing house
built on Cognitive Data Intelligence.

Our sister research lab measures how young readers assemble understanding as they read, across thousands of students in schools of every tier across India. We commission against that measured reading data.

So we know where a reader loses the thread, what holds their attention and what brings them back for the next book, and we publish the stories that meet them there.

Three imprints. Every age.

Meet the imprints ↗

Readers of every age

Cultural stories, folk tales and retellings from across the globe.

Tailorbird books ↗

8 to 12 yrs

Adventures across real maps for readers aged 8 to 12, the years they start reading on alone.

Ursa Minor books ↗

More than 500 original titles, across three imprints.

The full release of our first titles on 28 November 2026, and more each month after.

Published in India. Read everywhere.

Why we publish

We believe the next great popular stories can begin in India and travel anywhere. We publish them with the pull of the best storytelling and the care of literature, for readers from their first book to their hundredth.

For writers

Write for us

We are looking for writers with a story only they can tell. We publish for the long run, and we stay with our authors from the first book onward.
