Stories: created, illustrated, and published with AI

AlsonAI is launching Editor Mode - AI-assisted storybooks, now with full creative control.

by•
Authors can now directly edit and refine their story text after generation, instead of being locked into the first output. They can revise wording, adjust flow, improve scenes, and continue shaping the manuscript inside AlsonAI. Users guide image changes through Regenerate Image while AlsonAI works to preserve consistency across the book. Paid books include up to 10 image regenerations, and free previews include up to 5. Our vision: AI-assisted, user-owned storytelling.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Faris from AlsonAI, and we’re excited to share Editor Mode with you today. AlsonAI started with a simple belief: AI should help people bring their stories to life without taking ownership away from them. That’s why we’ve always started with the user’s manuscript, not just a prompt. With Editor Mode, we’re taking that vision further. AlsonAI is no longer just about generating an illustrated storybook and accepting the first result. Authors can now keep shaping the book after generation — editing the story text directly, refining the flow, and guiding image changes (with auto-preserved consistency across characters, scenes, backgrounds, and key objects). The core shift is from “generate and done” to “generate, edit, direct, refine, and own.” Paid books now include up to 10 image regenerations, and free previews include up to 5, so users can better shape the final visual direction of their book. Our goal is to make AlsonAI feel less like handing your story over to AI, and more like working with a creative assistant that helps you finish a book that still feels like yours. We’d love your feedback: Where do you think user-owned storytelling matters most? How important to you is maintaining control of your own story?

Can you compare versions easily, like see what changed between drafts while you’re editing?

 You’ll get prompted to review your revisions, including text and image changes, before you save your edits. You can also toggle back and forth between image regenerations (eg. Original, v1, v2) at any time.

AlsonAI does streamline the process compared to writing the prompts yourself, but I'm not sure if it offers the same level of flexibility (e.g., specific style instructions).
