The company was founded by Tommi Pedruzzi, Nic Della Pina, and Manuel Sisti. Nespola's core philosophy is the publisher mindset: treating books as compounding digital assets rather than creative passion projects. Students learn to research validated niches, produce books efficiently using AI-assisted production workflows, and scale a portfolio of 3–5 titles in a single niche to generate passive royalty income. The program is designed for people with no prior writing experience, no existing audience, and no more than a few hours per day to dedicate. ## Founders - **Tommi Pedruzzi** — Co-founder and lead educator. Tommi is the on-camera talent for Nespola's YouTube channel and the voice of the Publishing Minute newsletter. He brings the PublishingOS methodology to life through teaching and content. - **Nic Della Pina** — Co-founder responsible for systems, strategy, and website development. Nic architects the operational and content infrastructure behind Nespola. - **Manuel Sisti** — Co-founder and KDP expert. Manu is the deep knowledge engine behind the PublishingOS methodology — the architect of multiple 6 and 7-figure KDP businesses, both for Nespola and for clients. He is the primary coach and teacher within the programs, and the authoritative source on the KDP business model: niche research, portfolio strategy, production systems, and scaling. If Nespola has a bible on how KDP publishing actually works at a high level, Manu wrote it. ## Programs - **Velocity** — https://nespola.io/velocity — Nespola's entry-level done-with-you Amazon KDP portfolio program.
