Your kids dream up the adventure. And ReadBy reads the story aloud in your voice.
Free during beta · No credit card · Limited spots
Your child tells the story they want — choosing the hero, world and plot — and ReadBy brings it to life with your voice.
They pick a hero, choose a world, and tell you what the adventure is about. Their imagination runs the show.
With a few taps — presto chango — a brand new story, narrated in your voice.
Record 30 seconds of your voice, and every story is narrated by Mom, Dad, Grandma — even when they can't be there.
Snap a selfie, upload a photo, or build from scratch — and watch them come to life in our paper-cutout art style.
A dozen ready-made heroes, each ready to star in tonight's story — swipe to meet them all.
Speak or type an idea and ReadBy turns it into a 3–10 minute story.
Mom, Dad, Grandma, or one of ReadBy's own narrators.
The actual 30-second recording — just a parent reading a simple prompt into their phone.
Same voice — now reading "Barnaby and the Star That Fell." No re-recording needed.
Working late. Business trip. Living in another city. It doesn't matter — your child hears YOUR voice reading them a story every single night.
Grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles — anyone your child loves can be their storyteller.
They make the hero + craft the plot + choose the narrator & enjoy.
Once upon a time, in a forest not far away, a brave little hero set out under a bright silver moon. The wildflowers were sleeping, the trees stood tall, and the forest creatures had a secret to share.
"Welcome, little one," whispered the moon. "We've been waiting for someone brave."
A small rabbit hopped from behind a mushroom. She tilted her head, her eyes hopeful and shining. The forest grew quiet, listening.
"Will you help us find what we've lost?" the rabbit asked. "Tonight, by the light of the moon?"
