In their own words
Calaméo
Calaméo is an online platform for turning PDFs into interactive digital publications, including magazines, brochures, catalogs, and other documents. Readers can view a publication as a flipbook, slide presentation, or scrolling document. Publications can include audio, video, links, a table of contents, search, zoom, and full-screen viewing. They are readable on computers, tablets, and smartphones through an HTML5 viewer. BASIC is free, and eligible BASIC users can request one free 14-day PLATINUM trial before the account returns to BASIC. Document limits vary by plan: BASIC allows up to 100 MB and 500 pages, PREMIUM allows 100 MB with unlimited pages, and PLATINUM allows 500 MB with unlimited pages. Private-publication caps are 5 on BASIC, 500 on PREMIUM, and 2,500 on PLATINUM. Downloads and printing require PREMIUM or PLATINUM, and are unavailable in the mobile viewer. Integrations are exclusive to PLATINUM accounts; listed services include HubSpot, Typeform, Google Analytics, Matomo, Dropbox, Shopify, Mailchimp, and YouTube. The API is available to PREMIUM and PLATINUM users, with request and publishing limits.
