❤️ Make Memories

Turn real moments into magical keepsakes

Choose photos from a real experience — a holiday, a family day, a moment that mattered. Staris understands what happened and turns it into an illustrated story your child can revisit whenever they like.

1

Add real moments

A family holiday photo and three snapshots from the same day, laid out like polaroids.

Pick photos from a holiday, a family day out, a birthday — whatever your child already loves talking about.

2

Staris works its magic

We turn your photos into a personalised storybook adventure — no writing, no design, no editing.

3

Enjoy the memory story

An open storybook showing the same family day drawn as an illustrated scene, with the story written underneath.

A personalised, illustrated Memory Story starring the people who were really there — theirs to read again and again.

Moments worth keeping

  • Holidays
  • Family days out
  • Birthdays
  • First day at school
  • Meeting grandparents
  • Learning to ride a bike

Memory Stories are part of every paid plan — and the people in them become reusable characters your child can take into any Staris World.

Your photos stay private

Your photos shape the story, then are automatically deleted after they're analysed. We strip identifying metadata and don't attempt to determine your precise location. All you keep is the artwork.

🌍 Staris Worlds

🪄 How it works

A story in three taps — then let it write itself

Three choices from you, and Staris does the rest — a one-of-a-kind story, written and illustrated for your child alone.

1🌍

Choose a world

Pick from our living worlds to set the mood and the setting for the story.

2🧒

Add your characters

Drop in your reusable heroes: your child, a sibling, a pet, or a friendly dragon.

3🎯

Set a goal & tone

Choose what the story quietly teaches and how it should feel.

Not a prompt box — a recipe

Those three taps are real choices, and they add up. Here is what one story is actually made of.

Your child's age setting does the rest. It changes sentence length, how long the story is, how much happens and how openly the story teaches — so the same idea lands differently for the youngest reader and the oldest.

🧩 The craft behind the magic

Built for how children actually grow

The lesson is never bolted on. It grows out of the world the story lives in — and out of where your child is right now.

🔬Informed by child-development research. Stories draw on established frameworks — social-emotional learning (CASEL) and age-appropriate reading levels.

🧒 Staris Characters

More than a character. A lifelong story companion.

Every Staris character becomes part of an ongoing universe. They return across stories, build friendships, remember adventures and keep growing as your child explores new Worlds.

📖 Staris Stories

Stories are the heart of Staris.

Characters, Worlds, AI and learning all exist for one reason — a better story. And every story starts with a different purpose.

💛 Simple & fair

Start free. Pick the plan that fits.

Try it free — no ads, ever. Every paid plan gets the whole Staris experience; the plans differ in credits and image quality.

No paid feature is held back for a higher tier. The only differences are how many credits you get each month, and whether premium-quality image generation is available.

What a credit buys

Write a story
1 credit
Illustrate a page — standard quality
1 credit
Illustrate a page — premium quality
3 credits

Premium-quality images are richer and more detailed — and use three times the credits of a standard page, so a plan's allowance goes further when you mix the two.

Prices shown in Australian dollars; the App Store sets the price in your local storefront. Monthly plan credits refresh each billing cycle and don't roll over. When an upgrade takes effect immediately, your new billing cycle starts that day. Because the App Store prorates your previous subscription, the credits available immediately may be less than the new plan's standard monthly amount. Top-up credits you buy never expire — they pause if your subscription lapses, and come back when you resubscribe. How credits work
