Can GoHighLevel work well for a consumer iOS app funnel?

I’m currently building a consumer iOS app called Percivo.
The idea is simple: instead of giving people generic book summaries, Percivo helps users extract insights from books based on their own context, goals, or “lens.”
I’m exploring whether GoHighLevel can be useful beyond agencies/local businesses, specifically for a mobile app funnel.
What I’m thinking:
landing page for paid ads
email/SMS follow-up after signup
onboarding sequence
abandoned trial/payment recovery
user segmentation based on interests
maybe a simple CRM for creators/partners later
Has anyone here used GHL for a B2C app or subscription product, not just agency clients?
Curious if it’s worth building the funnel inside GHL, or if it becomes messy once the product is mainly App Store / RevenueCat based.

Do book insight apps need to go deeper than summaries or is speed always going to win?

Is there a real market for book insight apps that go deeper than summaries?

Most apps in this space (you know the ones) give you bullet points and call it a day. Fast, digestible, forgettable.

But I've been noticing a different user behavior: people don't just want to know WHAT a book says they want to know what it means FOR THEM. A founder reads differently than a parent. A student needs different takeaways than a senior exec.

Curious if anyone here has built in this space or studied the retention data:

- Do users actually engage longer when content is personalized to their role/context?
- Or does the summary format win just because of the speed factor?

Would love to hear from devs or marketers who've tested both angles.

Why do reading apps still treat every user the same way?

I’ve been using a few book summary and reading apps lately and something keeps bothering me.
They all give you the same output regardless of who you are or why you’re reading.
A founder trying to find one idea they can apply this week gets the same summary as a student writing a paper. A parent with 15 minutes gets the same experience as someone doing deep research. The app has no idea what you actually need from the book.
What I keep wishing for is something that asks me upfront: who are you right now, and what are you reading this for? Then shapes everything around that.
Not a longer summary. Not a shorter one. Just a more relevant one.
I’ve seen apps do this with news and music and fitness. Reading feels years behind.
Has anyone come across anything that actually does this well? Or is the assumption still that one format fits everyone?

How do people with ADHD actually retain ideas from books?

I noticed something about the way I read.

When I read productivity or self-improvement books, I usually feel like I’m taking in a lot, but after a while I barely remember what I actually learned.

What seems to help is reading with a very specific lens.

For example, instead of asking “what is this book about?”, I try to frame it like this:

“Explain this to someone with ADHD who struggles with procrastination, overwhelm, starting tasks, emotional regulation, and staying consistent.”

For some reason, that makes the ideas feel much more practical.

I stop looking for generic advice and start noticing things like:

* what I can actually do today
* what usually triggers me
* what systems I might realistically follow
* what is useful versus just motivational

I’ve also been testing prompts like:

“Analyze this book from the perspective of someone with ADHD. Focus on practical insights for procrastination, overwhelm, task initiation, consistency, and decision paralysis. Avoid generic motivation.”

How do you personally process books or long-form information without mentally checking out halfway through?

[FREE + IAP] I got tired of book summary apps treating everyone the same, so I built something different 🧠

Honest confession: I haven't finished a book in years.

Not because I stopped caring,I have a list of 200+ books I actually want to read. I just ran out of time somewhere between work, family, and everything else.

So I did what everyone does. I started reading summaries.
And they're fine. They get the job done. But after a few hundred of them, something started to bother me.

They all sound the same. Every summary of Atomic Habits gives you the same three takeaways,whether you're a college student, a founder with 40 employees, or a parent trying to build better habits around school pickup.
The book doesn't know who you are. And neither does the summary.

That gap stuck with me for a long time.
So about a year ago I started building Percivo.
It's an iOS app that looks at books through 7 different lenses,Entrepreneur, Coach, Busy Professional, Parent, Student, Creative. You pick the one that fits where you are in life right now, and the insights shift around you instead of the other way around.

It's not a summary. It's more like asking a really well-read friend "okay but what does this book mean for someone like me."

We have 2,800+ books in there now.

Quick question before the codes part,which of those 7 lenses sounds most like you right now?
I'm genuinely curious. Building this solo and I think about the personas a lot.

Pricing
Premium via Weekly ($3.99), Monthly ($9.99), or Yearly at $39 with a free trial.

Anyway,I'm giving away FREE WEEK CODES. DM me and I'll send one over. I won’t post codes publicly.

You didn't read the wrong books. You read them through the wrong lens.

Hey,

I read the same book 3 times. Each time it spoke to a completely different version of me. So I built the app that does this automatically.

Here's something nobody talks about:
The same book gives different people completely different results.

Your CEO friend reads Atomic Habits and restructures his entire company. Your friend reads it and finally starts going to the gym. You read it and... highlight a few things, then move on.

Same book. Three completely different lives changed, or not.

I spent years thinking I was the problem. Bad memory. Wrong mindset. Not disciplined enough.
Then it hit me: the book wasn't failing me. The lens was wrong.

A parent doesn't need the same takeaway as a startup founder. A student isn't looking for the same things a seasoned coach is. We've been reading books written for everyone, which is really written for no one.
So after 20 years as a software engineer, I stopped complaining and built the fix.

What Percivo actually does:
Every book runs through 6 life-role lenses after the Core Insights:
The Entrepreneur - Systems, execution, leverage
The Parent - Relationships, patience, daily life
The Coach - Growth, potential, bringing out the best in others
The Creative - Ideas, expression, original thinking
The Student - Retention, structure, deep understanding
The Busy Professional - Priorities, career, time
Same book. Six different people's breakthrough moments. You pick yours.

This isn't another summary app
Most book summary apps give you the what. Percivo gives you the how, for your life specifically.
The difference isn't the content. It's the context.

Pricing
Free to download, including one book on us. Premium via Weekly ($3.99), Monthly ($9.99), or Yearly at $39 with a free trial.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6757754384
