Tella Stories
Tella Stories is a personalized storytelling app for kids that generates stories from the child's actual life — their family, friends, pets, and the things they're nervous about that week — so the story is about their world and imagination and grows with them. It leverages multiple AI services to create the stories, gives kids agency through choices instead of passively watching, avoids an educational/instructional approach, and aims for Bluey-level quality as a trustworthy, enjoyable screen-time alternative.
What it addresses
Existing kids' personalization apps deliver templated digital stories or upsell printed versions, and most screen time is algo/curated garbage; parents lack a high-quality digital storytelling experience they can trust and kids actually enjoy.

“working on a storytelling app for kids called Tella Stories that goes deeper than just some minimal personalization.. know there's lots of stuff that claims to make them the hero, yadda yadda but then they just give you a shitty digital templated story or try to sell you a printed version.”
