Myedisi

What Myedisi does

Myedisi (legal entity PT. Myedisi Interaktif Media), headquartered in Bandung, Indonesia, is a digital publication platform operating since 2011. Its core product is the myedisi reader mobile application, available on Android smartphones/tablets, iPhone, and iPad, which delivers DRM-protected digital editions of books, magazines, tabloids, and newspapers to Indonesian consumers. The reader client blocks unauthorized redistribution and screen recording, and the platform distributes a broad catalog that includes Islamic children's magazines (Cilukba, Cilukba Junior), an Islamic flagship title (Suara Hidayatullah, published since 1988), Quran reference series from Maghfirah Pustaka, and approximately twelve regional Indonesian newspaper titles.

Beyond consumer reading, Myedisi has built an adjacent institutional product line targeting Indonesian schools: myedisi yearbook for digital school yearbook distribution, myedisi library for membership-based digital lending with borrow limits and queue management, and myedisi mag for digital school magazines. The platform also offers myedisi publisher, enabling third-party publishers to onboard and distribute through the network, signaling an early marketplace/publisher-platform evolution.

The business model is consumer subscription-led, supplemented by one-time digital edition purchases and group subscriptions (pembelian patungan) where up to five readers share annual access at a discount. Pricing is low-ARPU in Indonesian Rupiah terms (e.g., Cilukba annual at Rp 126,000, Hidayatullah single edition at Rp 32,000). Go-to-market is product-led through app store listings on Google Play and Apple App Store and a transactional website storefront, with the website explicitly routing users to the app for consumption while purchase/registration flows remain web-based. No external funding, M&A activity, or institutional investors are disclosed; the company is privately held with leadership comprising Rachman Ibrahim (Chief Executive) and Dindin Syamsudin (Chief Operation).
