A bedtime story, written just for your child
Their name. Their age. Whatever they love this week — read together, or narrated aloud by a warm storyteller voice.
Stories generate on-device. Nothing about your child is stored on our servers.
Made for bedtime, not for screens
Three things set it apart from a chatbot open at the kitchen table.
Privacy-first
Stories generate on-device using Apple's on-device models. Claude Haiku is only a fallback for older devices, and even then nothing is stored afterwards.
Warm, professional narration
Stories can be narrated aloud by warm, professional storyteller voices from ElevenLabs — not a robotic text-to-speech voice — then saved to your device to replay anytime.
Built for bedtime
A simple, calm, five-tab flow — Create, Shelf, Tales, Listen, Settings — with CloudKit opt-in sync so a child's shelf follows them across devices.
Tell it who you're reading to
An idea, a few interests, a mood — about twenty seconds later, their story.
Read it together, or let a warm narrator take over
Every story lives on your child's own shelf, ready to read again whenever they like.
