A new bedtime story every night — written for your child, read aloud in Mom’s or Dad’s voice. Even on the nights you can’t be there.
“ The bedtime story is older than writing. Talmanac just keeps it going on the nights you can’t. ”
Six short passages, read aloud in a quiet room. About four minutes. We name it Mom, Dad, or whatever you like.
Bedtime, nap, or playtime. A listener age. A length. An optional spark — a sleepy forest, a kind rabbit.
A fresh story, written tonight, read in your voice. The words light up as they’re spoken.
The waves crash gently against the sandy shore.
The sun is setting, and the sky is painted with warm pinks and oranges.
A little girl sits on the sand, her knees bent and her hands in her lap.
She watches the waves, her eyes wide with wonder.
The water is cool and refreshing, and she feels a sense of peace wash over her.
A demo — the real one is read in your voice.
Mom. Dad. Bibi the grandmother. Uncle Sal who lives a flight away. Each voice rests in the choir, ready to carry tonight’s tale — even when the people themselves can’t.
Tonight’s story doesn’t vanish at sunrise. It’s saved — cached on your device, ready to be replayed offline next Tuesday at 3am when someone needs it again.
From toddler-simple to early-reader rich. The vocabulary, arc, and length all tune themselves.
Six short passages, four minutes, total. Stored privately. Yours to delete whenever.
Bedtime, nap, or playtime. Soft and slow, or bright and bouncy — your call.
“A sleepy forest. A kind rabbit. Something calming.” Steer the story with a single line.
Words light up as they’re spoken. Older kids read along; younger ones just drift.
Each story is cached on the device. Airplane mode, basement, road trip — bedtime still happens.
I travel for work two weeks a month. My daughter heard my voice every single night. I cried in a Marriott in Cleveland.
My dad passed in March. We recorded six passages from an old voicemail. My son still gets bedtime stories from grandpa.
My partner and I both clone in. Our kid has tied bedtime to whoever’s home. It freed our evenings.
I was suspicious of AI doing bedtime. But the stories are calm, simple, never weird. My boy asks for a new chapter every night.
The recorder won’t even start until you confirm you have permission to record the voice. We mean it.
