Storybooks

What it does

Storybooks is an app for parents to create personalized bedtime stories for their kids. Users simply enter a story prompt and we generate a short illustrated story for them.

We use the Gemini API in 2 ways:

1. Generate story text: We prompt Gemini to create a 10-page story for kids.
2. Generate image prompts: For each page of the story, we ask Gemini to create an image prompt, which is then sent to Imagen.

Because of Gemini, Storybooks can enable kids to embark on magical adventures, bring imaginary friends to life, and develop social-emotional skills.

In addition to Gemini, Storybooks leverages a number of other Google products:

1. Flutter: Our iOS and Android apps were built with Flutter.
2. Google Translate: Localization is a core feature, and a large majority of our users are from developing countries.
3. Google Cloud Platform: All our infrastructure, including APIs, databases, and image hosting, is managed within GCP.
4. Imagen: We use Imagen to generate illustrations for each story.

Nearly 250 million children worldwide lack basic literacy skills. With the help of Gemini, we have the opportunity to solve this problem. Our mission is to give every child access to a library full of fun and enriching stories they can read anytime, anywhere.
