An AI bedtime story generator that makes real audio stories

Keoma is an AI bedtime story generator for children aged about 2 to 10 that gives you a finished audio story rather than a block of text. You choose a hero, a world and a mood; AI writes an original story for your child’s age, a safety review checks it, and it is recorded with a narrator, a voice for each character, music and sound effects.

How it works

  1. You choose the ingredients: up to three heroes, a world, a magic touch, a mood, a length and, if you like, a little lesson.
  2. AI writes an original script sized for your child’s age: the pace, the length of the sentences and the number of characters all change with age.
  3. Before anything is recorded, an AI safety review reads the whole script with the listener’s age and the story’s mood in mind.
  4. The story is produced as audio: a narrator, a different voice for each character, music and sound effects. Listening can start as soon as the first chapter is ready.
  5. It stays in your family library, and replaying it is free.

Why not just ask a chatbot?

You can, and some nights a chatbot story read aloud by you is all you need. The difference is what you get back. A chatbot gives you text to read. Keoma gives you a produced story, written to age rules that come from how children listen at each stage, checked for safety, and performed by a cast of voices with music and sound, so your child can listen with the lights off while you sit with them, or not.

Keoma also keeps the stories somewhere safe for children: kids mode only shows the stories you allow, with no ads, no chat and no links out.

What it won’t do

  • It won’t put your child’s name in the story. Stories are replayed by the whole family, so real children’s names are kept out of the recordings.
  • It isn’t instant: producing the audio takes a few minutes, although listening starts with the first chapter.
  • It doesn’t make videos or picture books. Each story has one painted cover, and the rest is sound.
  • It doesn’t hide that it is AI. Scripts are written by AI language models and voiced with AI voices from ElevenLabs, and published audio files are marked as AI-generated.

Questions parents ask

Is there a free AI bedtime story generator?

You can hear real Keoma stories for free, without an account, on the sample stories page. Making new stories needs a plan, from €6.90 a month, counted in story minutes rather than in stories.

Are AI stories safe for children?

Every Keoma script gets an AI safety review for the listener’s age and the story’s mood before it is voiced, you choose what goes into each story and can listen first, and kids mode only shows the stories you allow. Our guide to AI stories and safety explains the limits too.

Can I type my own story idea?

Yes, on plans that include your own idea: a few lines that Keoma builds the story around. On every plan you choose the heroes, the world, the mood and an optional lesson.

Which languages does it write in?

English and French. Each story is written directly in its language, not translated.
