What way do you communicate towards to them? Because it is not easy to reach out to this market.
On one hand, you need to do something for kids but at the same time convince parents who are in charge of payments. 🙂@busmark_w_nika thank you for your questions, Nika!

You’re absolutely right – our audience is a balance between parents & children. We communicate with parents by emphasising the educational and safety aspects, while the content itself naturally appeals to the kids. It’s a delicate balance indeed.

So, for parents, we focus on offering a safe environment that promotes the healthy development of their child. We know how important it is for parents to trust that their children are engaging with quality content. And as for the kids, we captivate them with our storylines and lively animations :) The feedback we’ve received shows that children love the interactive experience, which makes learning fun and engaging for them.@goluzova Appreciate mainly the edu aspect. Have you collaborated with any specialists who recommended effective techniques to play and teach kiddos? :) that would be pretty cool!@busmark_w_nika yes! we’ve collaborated with child psychologists, speech therapists, and elementary school teachers to implement effective techniques for both play & learning 😊@busmark_w_nika thank you, Nika!!Loved it. Kids need that this kind of stories are interactive so you're making a huge change in their life. More than glad to see you on this and wish you all the best on this impressive launch!@german_merlo1 thank you, Germán!!Interesting, and love the fact that Boook is 'approved by psychologists', could you elaborate on this? 

Also @goluzova, you should add this fact in your headline or so. Even your app store screenshots/description bringing this up adds a trust factor.@akigugale thanks for pointing that out!
what exactly would you like to learn about our work with psychologists? Happy to share :)

SoBrief is the world's largest book summary platform, containing 73,530+ thorough book summaries with audio narration. AI-powered book curation. Supports 40 languages. 100% free to read. No signup is required. Only $4.99/mo for listening.Hello Product Hunt!

I’m Eric, co-founder of Audioread, which won #1 Product of the Day, Week, and Month.

Now, I'm building SoBrief, and we’re on a mission to make knowledge more accessible.

Books have the power to change lives, but we face three key challenges:

  1. Too Many Books: We have more books than we can read. SoBrief acts like a movie trailer for books—helping you decide which ones are worth your time.
  2. Retention Struggles: It’s easy to forget what we’ve read. SoBrief provides quick summaries to ensure key takeaways stick with you.
  3. Language Barriers: Translating books is expensive. SoBrief bridges global knowledge by making books accessible across languages.

Our goal is to make the world smarter by:
  - Keeping summaries free to read (like Wikipedia)
  - Offering paid features (like audio narration) to sustain the platform

We’ve built SoBrief in just 16 weeks and would love your feedback:
  * What resonates most with you?
  * Where can we improve?
  * How do you see SoBrief evolving?

Thanks for supporting our mission to unlock knowledge for everyone!

P.S. We offer a 50% commission on all referrals and a 25% discount for the Product Hunt community (PH25, expires 11:59 PM PT Sep. 12).

—EricAuthors everywhere be like 😤 (Joke aside, I do summarise everything I read atm. NYT, FT, WSJ. all premium content gets zipped up with a single ChatGPT prompt.

Thanks!@lumi_nertan Great questions!
> The book curations are 100% Ai powered? 
Yes! Have you tried it yet? I think it works very well. 

> Do you have any protocols for accuracy checking?
No, honestly just subjective evaluation. Many users seem to check a few books they've already read to see if it's accurate.congrats on the launch Eric, Sobrief looks like blinkist on steroids with a larger spectrum of books, this is awesome 🤗@said_aitmbarek that's exactly what it is! Thanks for the support

Hello Literature

Storybooks Illustrator is an online illustration tool for children's book authors and creative parents. Use it to illustrate and publish any story you can dream of.When my son was born, I wanted to create something to spark his imagination and inspire his love for reading. There are many children's books out there, but none that deeply aligned with his individual interests. Also, it was hard to compete with TV and games for his attention, so I tried to find a way to make reading more fun. I saw how much he loved his stuffed animals and our 2 huskies, and I wondered if there was a way to create a children's book with them as the characters. I tried many AI tools to generate consistent characters across a story, but it proved difficult -- so I built my own tool! I hope this can be used to spark joy and imagination around the world, and inspire a love for reading.@roamingtechie Love this, Alex! I too had wanted to find something like this to use with my sons, and had many failed attempts with other AI tools. Excited to check yours out. I'll report back with reviews from a 3yo and 6yo :)@michaelshoup super excited to see how your 3yo and 6yo react! It's great to meet other parents actively seeking fun ways to engage their kids. Big kudos to you for going the extra mile.Nice. Glad I didn't miss this. I'm sure Toy Stories will help a lot with empowering children's imagination.@salar__davari we'll do our best to make that happen!The next level of storytelling 

Taking something real and turn it into a story

Casper Brix,
Author and Co-Founder@casper_brix interesting idea, what's your Product USP comparing to just writing the same in ChatGPT prompts?That's a great question @dmitryoreshko ! We actually started with a similar mindset, but after getting a lot of feedback from users who needed help getting book ideas, we realised we needed to build something more specialised. Another perk of using our book ideas generator is that it taps into our book author engine, which we’ve fine-tuned specifically for generating books.

@casper_brixThanks @dash4u ! We're excited too! Our AI tailors book ideas by considering your professional background, industry, and personal experiences. For example, you select your field (like IT or marketing) then specify the type of book you want to write. Our tool uses this input, along with any personal notes, to generate ideas that align with your expertise and interests, ensuring your book idea resonates with your unique perspective.Cool! Wish you GL with the launch Casper! :) I remember that you also wrote books so probably you know what to do in this situation and if something stems from your personal experience, it has more credibility! :)@busmark_w_nika Exactly, I spent +2 years writing my first book and getting it published.

However, this was pre-AI. Now, with solutions like First Book ai, you can leverage AI and speed up the process and quality of your work dramatically.Wow Casper! Writers and readers will love this cause your pushing the books' boundaries beyond. Happy to see you helping on this and wish you all the best on this impressive launch. CheersCongratulation on the launch @casper_brix ! I'm looking forward to the exciting features that'll build over the top of the current product. Good luck to the team.✨
