A Note to Users from the Founders
Build My Story began with a personal experience familiar to many parents. Our Founder, Chuck, was determined to help his 9-year-old son, who was struggling in school. Two weeks before a parent-teacher conference, Chuck used various AI tools to craft a personalized book featuring his son as the main character. The effort was well worth it, as the book showed his son how he could succeed. When the book arrived, his son was thrilled to see himself in the story, but Chuck didn’t anticipate the profound impact it would have.
At the parent-teacher conference, the teacher noted a significant improvement in his son’s behavior over the previous two weeks. Surprised and overjoyed, Chuck shared the book with the teacher, showing what had made such a difference. Inspired by this success, our founders decided to automate the process, making it easy for parents to create personalized books for their children. BuildMyStory now offers an immersive experience with interactive features, perfect for supporting your child’s development or celebrating special occasions.
