About

I'm 17, I just finished 10th grade, and I'm building Narrly — an app that turns any child into the hero of their own personalized bedtime story, in 8 languages including native Kazakh. Every story carries one value: kindness, honesty, courage. I moved from Astana to Almaty on my own to join the nFactorial incubator, and I built Narrly solo — directing AI tools instead of writing code by hand. I care about one thing: that kids grow up with good values. And that starts early, in the stories they hear. This summer it's been eight hours a day building, evenings on SAT and TOEFL, and university applications in between. Still early, still learning. If you're a parent, an educator, or building in kids' content or EdTech — I'd love to connect.

Narrly - Your child, the hero — read in the voice they love

Narrly turns your child into the hero of their own illustrated bedtime story — each one teaching a real value like courage, kindness or honesty. The magic: every tale can be narrated in YOUR own recorded voice or a favorite character's, so bedtime feels personal. Free unlimited folk-tale library (including Kazakh classics), 8 languages, first story free. Built solo by a 17-year-old founder.

i think we've been building to-do apps backwards

quick thought on launch day, and a genuine question for this room

every to-do app fights over features .. tags, projects, dependencies, AI everything. but i think the real reason we abandon them sits way earlier: the 3 seconds between "i just remembered something" and it actually being saved.

that gap is where thoughts die .. you open the app, there's a form, a date picker, a dropdown, and by the time you're done you've half-forgotten why you opened it .. so you dump it in apple notes with a "sort later" that never comes, sound familiar?
