What is Fairytale Genie?
Fairytale Genie is an AI storytelling app for families. You design a character based on your child, choosing their animal companion, hairstyle, eye color and clothes, and then describe the story you want. The AI writes it and illustrates the pages, so your child sees themselves as the hero.
Stories are made for bedtime, birthdays and special occasions. You can read them online, download the character images and a PDF, or order a printed 8.5 × 8.5 inch full-color storybook with one, two or three stories inside. Gift subscriptions are available too.
Fairytale Genie is built with DevOpser. The story of taking it from the web to mobile is told in the AI app factory post.
