Every other storytime, your child is the audience. With TaleTiles they build the story out of wooden tiles, you scan the board, and their adventure plays out loud, starring them by name.
Build it, scan it, hear it. One story, starring your child by name.
Your child lays out the tiles, you scan the board once, and the adventure plays out loud with music, sound, and their own name as the hero. Try it below: type a name and watch the story change.
"...and then Josie lifted the lantern, and the whole cave lit up gold."
Every story stars your child by name, in a world they chose tile by tile.From consumers of stories to creators of stories.
Hands on wood, ears on story, eyes off glass. The phone is your tool for one scan, never your child's screen.

Your child lays out wooden tiles on the tray, choosing the characters, places, and objects their story is made of.

Open the app, scan the finished tray, set the phone down. That is the whole of the screen.

Their adventure plays with music and sound, and the author hears their own name as the hero.

"She realized the story was the one she had just built. Then she wanted to write another one."

Our test families tell us the effect reaches past storytime, showing up in calmer bedtimes and smoother breakfast routines.
"With four kids, bedtime is usually chaos. This is the first thing that gets all of them to settle, and it has spilled into calmer mornings too."
"It is the only screen thing I do not feel guilty about. They are building with their hands, and the phone just plays it back."
"Hearing his own name as the hero, his whole face changed. That was the moment I finally got what this was."
"The first night, my daughter asked to build another one before the first story even finished. She has never done that with a book."
"My two usually fight over everything, but they take turns picking tiles without me asking, then sit together to listen. That almost never happens."
"Bedtime used to be a battle over the tablet. Now he builds his story, we set the phone down, and he is actually calm. I did not expect that."
Built to be opened with a child, not handed to one.
We are inviting a small group of families into the TaleTiles beta. You get a free kit shipped to your door, early access, and a direct line to shape what we build next. First name and email is all we need to start.
"We are a small team building TaleTiles for our own kids. Join now and you help shape the very first version, and it will be us, personally, reading every piece of your feedback."Cole, founder of TaleTiles

No. Your kit ships to you free during the beta. All we ask in return is that your family actually uses it and shares honest feedback.
