Turn your parent's spoken memories into a beautiful memoir and illustrated children's storybook. AI-powered voice recording, no writing required. Preserve their legacy today.
Congrats on the launch, @nzieber. I think your Just Talking approach is the winner.
I noticed one thing on the page. Your text focuses on the bedtime story. That is the joy. But the real driver here is the fear of losing these memories. I think if you hit that "Cost of Inaction" harder in the hero section, your signups will jump.
I hope this hits the top spot today.
Very interesting idea! It could be developed further by allowing users to upload old photos so the AI could assemble a whole video story.
The "three-generation problem" framing is exactly right — grandparents have the stories, grandkids want them, and there's rarely a format that bridges the two. Did you find people were more willing to sit down and record when the book was framed as being for one specific grandchild rather than a general family archive?
This is such a refreshingly human use of AI! I’ve watched Mawuli pour his heart into this project and I can’t wait to onboard my grandma and start collecting her stories.
The three generation framing really lands, and turning one recording into both a memoir chapter and a bedtime storybook so nobody has to record twice is a smart way to get double the value from a single ask. I have spent the last while building voice AI that phones aging parents for a daily check in, and the moment people open up is almost always when the AI asks about their past rather than their day. Have you noticed which kinds of prompts pull out the longest, most detailed stories, versus the ones that fall flat?
