Books, being important tools of self-improvement, are present everywhere. Yet, with the demands of a hectic lifestyle, achieving a work-life balance can be challenging. As an avid reader myself, I faced difficulties in revising and learning from books amid a busy schedule. It was this realization that inspired the creation of Oter.” “As they say, a reader lives a thousand lives, we aspire to empower future generations to learn from books conveniently – at their fingertips”, he adds.
