Founder story
Publuu was launched in 2017 in Opole, Poland, to simplify how businesses present and distribute PDF documents online. Recognizing that static PDF attachments failed to engage modern readers and provided zero reader analytics, the team built a browser-based HTML5 flipbook generator with built-in engagement tracking and lead capture features.
