01

The challenge

Parents get a bedtime story written for their own child in under a minute, from nothing more than the child's name, age and interests.

02

What we built

01

Starring your child

Every story is built around your child as the main character. Parents choose the setting, the characters and the moral.

02

Written and narrated

AI writes each story, and an AI voice reads it aloud.

03

Illustrated

Watercolour-style illustrations for every story, and a comic format for something different.

04

Right for every age

Stories for babies, toddlers, kids and adults, plus educational and Christmas stories. Language and themes match the reader, and content is child-safe by design.

05

Your own library

Every story is saved, so favourites can be read again and new ones added any night.

06

Works everywhere

On phone, tablet and desktop. A mobile app is built, though not yet released in the app stores.

Built with: React · Node.js · NoSQL database · AI inference · Text-to-speech · Mobile app · Payments

About

About Talepod

Talepod writes custom bedtime stories for kids. Parents choose who the story is about, where it happens and what it should teach, and Talepod turns that into a new, age-appropriate tale in moments.
