Enter your idea and we generate a full novel and turn it into your personal audiobook using AI. Choose between an easy mode with just one sentence or an advanced mode where you can customize characters, genre, story, time and place and much more. Now on IOS.
"Yeah really, with this new AI thing you could generate a full book if you wanted to..."
- If you're like me, you've probably said something along those lines recently, trying to explain the incredible leaps in AI to less tech savvy people. But if it's such an obvious use case, why isn't it already a thing?
That's exactly what we're going to change with today's launch! Our small team is super exited to finally share our project with you. We've poured our hearts into this, and we'd love to hear what you think.
Our goal? To enable anyone with a smartphone to "write" their own Harry Potter level books. Okay, we know of course we're still quite far from that, but imagine someone creating a book that means as much to them as Harry Potter does to millions of fans. That's what we're shooting for, and I can tell you, the stories possible with our app right now are already pretty mind-blowing (at least to me).
We're well aware this is a controversial project and we're gonna face some pushback. But here's the thing: most books today come from a small pool of highly educated, often well off authors. They're brilliant, no doubt. But are they the only ones with great stories to tell? How many potential "Lord of the Rings" are out there, locked away in people's minds, never seeing the light of day because those people don't have the means or time to write their own book? And historically, has making art more accessible ever led to worse art?
Today we're taking the first step towards a shift from purely author-created books to user-generated ones. If our project speaks to you (or even if you just like the concept), we'd be incredibly grateful for your upvote. After months of bootstrapping, your support would mean the world to us. It'll help us focus on finding the right balance of user involvement - whether it's one-prompt wonders, heavy, assisted editing, or even book versioning - and most importantly, on making better and better stories. (And of course reaching human level narrating!)
Let's open up the world of storytelling together!
(P.S. To ensure a smooth launch, we've activated invite codes in the app. I'll post some initial ones in the comments below and then after signing up, each user can find 2 new codes in their profile to share here or with friends.)
If all of them are used already just comment here or send a dm on instagram @kulukoapp

This sounds like a fascinating project with the potential to democratize storytelling! Here's a response that combines interest with some questions and offers help:
- Can you elaborate on how the AI specifically assists with the writing process? Does it generate entire chapters or focus on specific aspects like plot, character development, or style?
- With user-generated content, how do you ensure quality and maintain a platform for compelling stories? Is there a role for human editors or beta readers?
As a developer, I'm interested in the technical aspects behind the AI writing assistant and the user experience. If those align with my skills (e.g., AI development, creative writing), I might be able to contribute to future development.
Overall, this project has the potential to be a game-changer for aspiring authors. Learning more about the AI's role in the writing process and how you ensure story quality would be interesting. I'd love to see how this platform evolves and potentially contribute my skills if relevant!
Hi everyone! I’m thrilled that we are finally able to share Kuluko with you all 😁 Our dream has been to give everyone the tools to bring their unique stories to life. I’d love to hear your thoughts on what kinds of stories you'd create with Kuluko —do you have a story idea that's been in your mind for years or a genre you think doesn’t get enough love? And if you have any questions about how the app works or our vision for the future, feel free to ask. We’re here to chat and excited to hear your feedback!

Me personally, I think this concept is incredibly innovative and holds immense potential to revolutionize the audiobook industry. I also would be interested to invest in this project, hit me up @jaaari :)
Hey quick update: We are super sorry, but we're currently having technical issues but are working on fixing it as fast as possible. Hopefully back up in a few hours!
This is great! Just an idea for an improvement: to be able to pause a book and change the direction that it goes along the way. This way you can modify how things evolve while listening to it.
@semanser Hey Andriy, that sound super interesting, thanks for the idea! Definitely gonna be resource intensive but could really make it even more interactive. Gonna add that to our list of possible features for sure 😍
