Dream Weaver writes a fresh story starring your kid and texts it to your phone in time for bedtime. No app to download. No screens for your child. Just open the message, read together, lights out. Here is how it all works.
Magic Portal
One-time phone-number verification. No password to remember, no email to give us.
Plot Palette
First name (or nickname), bedtime, interests, favorite colors. Takes about a minute.
Enchanted Library
At the bedtime you set, a fresh story arrives by SMS. Tap the link, read together, repeat tomorrow.
How it works
Most of these are also answered in the in-app Help section once you sign in. The versions below go a little deeper.
Each evening, at the bedtime you set, Dream Weaver uses Google's Gemini AI to write a brand-new story starring your child. The story is generated using the interests, colors, and details you entered on the Profile page. We text a preview and a link to your phone from (833) 564-0781. Tap the link and the full story opens in your browser, ready to read aloud. There is no app to download, ever.
Your Dashboard always shows the latest story, and the Calendar holds every story we have ever written for your kid so you can re-read favorites.
At the bedtime you choose on the Profile page, adjusted to your timezone. If you set 7:30 PM, the SMS arrives at 7:30 PM. You can change the time or the timezone whenever you want from the Profile page. Changes take effect for the next scheduled story.
Roughly ages 3 to 8, with the sweet spot around 4 to 7. Premium users can pick from a few age-tuned variants ("toddler-simple", "early reader", "older kid") to match where your child is. The non-Premium default lands somewhere in the middle and works for most families.
Roughly three to five minutes of read-aloud time. Long enough to feel like a complete bedtime story, short enough to finish before anyone falls asleep mid-sentence (or stays too wound up to settle down).
It is sent to your phone, not your child's. If you have your phone on silent during bedtime (most parents do), nothing wakes anyone up. The story is also waiting on your Dashboard if you prefer to pull it up that way instead of using the SMS.
From the Profile page in the app. You can update the first name, interests, favorite colors, bedtime, and timezone at any time. Changes apply to the next scheduled story.
If you find a particular interest is producing stories your kid doesn't love, just swap it out. The AI takes its cues directly from this list.
A few angles:
Yes. Visit the Calendar page, tap any past date, and you'll see a "Continue This Adventure" option. That past story becomes the seed for tonight's new one.
Premium users can also text MORE to (833) 564-0781 to continue the most recent story, or text ADD <your idea> to weave a new element into the current tale (a new friend, a sudden plot twist, whatever you want).
Premium SMS commands
Get a brand-new story on demand. Useful for the occasional second story or when bedtime gets moved.
Continue the most recent story. Carry the adventure into a second night with the same characters.
Weave a new element into the current story. Example: ADD a friendly dragon named Pip.
Stop SMS delivery and request account deletion. Available to everyone, not just Premium.
Premium users get up to 4 stories per day via these commands. Regular accounts get one nightly story.
Premium
A handful of things that the once-a-night free version doesn't include:
Premium is a monthly subscription via Stripe. See the Premium Page inside the app for current pricing.
Monthly, via Stripe. Your card is charged the same day each month for as long as you stay subscribed. You can cancel any time from the Profile page or by emailing steve@skytech.io. After cancellation, you keep Premium features through the end of the current billing cycle.
No. There are no ads in Dream Weaver, in either the free or Premium tiers. No banner ads, no in-story product placement, no affiliate links, no sponsored content. Bedtime is sacred and we want to keep it that way.
Safety & privacy
A layered approach:
No system is perfect. If you ever read something that feels off, please email steve@skytech.io and forward the story link. Steve fixes prompts based on real reports.
Dream Weaver is designed to collect the minimum information needed to make the product work: your phone number, your child's first name and a few story-relevant details. We do not collect last names, addresses, photos, or anything sensitive. Children cannot sign in directly.
For the full data picture (sub-processors, retention, your rights), see the Dream Weaver privacy page.
Two ways, both lead to the same outcome:
PAUSE to any story SMS from (833) 564-0781We process deletions within 48 hours. After processing, your phone number, child profile, and entire Calendar are removed. This is irreversible.
Email steve@skytech.io. Steve reads and answers every message himself, usually within a day.
