Most indie authors are marketing without the data traditional publishers have. Romintel is the behavioural data layer for romance authors — we read the Amazon top 50 across eight subgenres every morning, so you can read your readers.
Four principles behind every finding — so the data tells you what to do, not just what's happening.
Every finding starts with something specific and surprising. Not “dark romance is popular” — that's noise. “17 of the top 20 share the same cover composition, and it's not an accident” — that's a signal.
This is our edge. Readers aren't choosing consciously — their brains pattern-match on cues before they've read a word. A face turned away activates threat-detection. Enemies-to-lovers triggers loss aversion. The data tells you what. We tell you why.
Every insight ends with a clear implication for the author reading it. Never “you're leaving money on the table.” Always “here's what this means — and here's what I'd try if this were my book.”
The data doesn't exist to expose what you're doing wrong. It exists to show you what's possible. Every insight starts from the assumption that you're already trying, already capable, and already worthy of better information.
