Three steps to bedtime

From a photograph to a forever book

You bring the photo. We bring the illustration, the age-shaped story, and the option to print it.

01

Upload a photo

One clear photo is all we need. Your child's features become a soft, illustrated character — never a deepfake, never a realistic likeness. The photo is used once to create the character, then discarded.

02

Pick a world

Choose a theme matched to their age and what they love — from quiet gardens to deep space.

03

Read it tonight, keep it forever

Their personalized book is ready to read in the app, with the option to order it as a hardcover keepsake. (Narration — coming soon.)

Tonight's story

Choose a world for tonight.

A handful of warm, familiar worlds — and more inside the app, including birthdays and a build-your-own custom story.

Bedtime Adventure

A gentle journey that winds down to sleep.

Space Journey

Off through the stars, brave and curious.

Under the Sea

New friends and quiet wonders beneath the waves.

Animal Friends

A story full of the creatures they love.

A Day Out

An everyday outing turned into an adventure.

Learning Colours & Numbers

Playful first colours and counting.

…and more inside the app.

Built for ages 0–6

A story tuned to where they are today

Vocabulary, sentence length, and pacing all shift to match where your child is in their development — informed by established early-childhood principles.

Baby · 0–12 months

First read-alouds

One gentle line per page, soft sounds to read aloud, one familiar thing to name. Built for laps and bedtime, not screens.

Toddler · 1–2 years

Sounds and surprises

Short, lively sentences with sounds to perform and little "can you find it?" moments — fresh language on every page.

Preschool · 2–4 years

Small story arcs

Gentle rhyme and playful prompts — colors, counting, "what happens next?"

Early reader · 4–6 years

Fuller chapters

Richer language and a satisfying arc — for kids growing into reading on their own.

How we make them

Made with more care than a quick AI prompt.

Every Estori story is shaped by your child's age — from a baby's first read-aloud rhythms to an early reader's fuller chapters — using established early-childhood development principles for pacing, language, and gentle interaction. The art direction is designed to feel like a real picture book, not an AI novelty. Stories are generated within age-appropriate guardrails so what your child sees fits the age you chose.

Honest answers

What parents ask first

  • Is my child's photo safe?

    We use the photo once to create your child's character, then discard it. It's never used to train public AI models and never shared.

  • Are the stories appropriate?

    Every story is generated within age-appropriate guardrails set for the age you choose — we filter scary or violent content and keep language and themes suited to young children.

  • Is Estori available in Spanish?

    Estori is available in English and Spanish — choose your language and the whole story is written natively in it.
