Show HN: KidTales – Generate children's stories with AI

1 points by ryleyrandall22 a day ago

Like a lot of parents, my kids badger me for a bedtime story every night.

We’ve recently started using ChatGPT to come up with them, and after I would ask it to make some images of the story as well.

One night I thought the classic “there should be an app for that”

Only took two days to get the current product built

Current features - generate an entire story or interactive mode and choose your own adventure - generated stories you can press play and have it read to you all the way through - create reusable characters so you can keep a predictable cast between stories

Stack - Devize (app platform) - Open AI for AI - Flux for image generation - been wanting to try cloudflare workflows as well, so I’m using that to handle the story generation pipeline

The hardest part was getting the images to be consistent between pages. Still not perfect, but honestly my kids like the variation (feels like a surprise on each page)

Would love feedback from any parents!
