How Storieman works
Personalised
Your child's name, interests, and today's events woven naturally into the story.
Settling
Designed for regulation, not stimulation. Stories that help the body rest.
Crafted
Built on a framework for presence — rhythm, refrains, breath markers.
Common questions
Are the stories safe for children?
Every story is crafted to be age-appropriate, settling, and complete. No cliffhangers, no villains, no anxiety-inducing tension. Stories resolve fully — nothing is left hanging.
How long are the stories?
Most bedtime stories are 5–12 minutes, depending on the preset you choose. You can also add chapters to continue a story across multiple nights.
Can I save and share stories?
Yes. Every story can be saved to your library, shared via a link, or read aloud with the built-in teleprompter mode.
Is it free to try?
You can create stories for free. The free tier includes a generous number of stories each month. Paid plans unlock unlimited stories and premium features.
How does personalisation work?
You tell us your child's name, age, and interests. Storieman weaves these naturally into each story — your child becomes part of the world, not just a character with their name pasted in.
