They talk
We write
Kids ReadThey talk. Tellus writes the memoir and your kid's bedtime story.
Your parents or grandparents talk about their life. Tellus turns their voice recordings into a written memoir and illustrated children's book. No typing. No cameras.
"My daughter asks for Grandpa stories every night."
The Quiet Loss
Your parents' best stories are disappearing.
Your dad's voice. The way your mum tells that one story about the summer of '82. The details your kids will never think to ask about. Every family loses these things slowly, quietly, until one day they're gone. Journals go unwritten. Video feels awkward. Nobody has time for a formal interview. Tellus fixes that with the one thing that's natural for everyone: just record them talking.
How It Works
Three steps. No typing. No cameras.
Just their voice. Record their stories and turn audio into a memoir.
We ask a question
Tellus greets them with a simple, thoughtful prompt. "What's the bravest thing you ever did?" "What did your neighbourhood look like when you were ten?"
They just answer
They tap record and talk for as long as they want to capture their memories. No writing, no editing, no tech skills needed.
Tellus creates
Their recording becomes a beautifully written memoir chapter for you — and an illustrated children's story for the little ones in your family.
What You Get
Two keepsakes from every voice recording.
A memoir for you. A children's book for the kids.
Output One
A real memoir. From their voice recording to your library.
Every recording becomes a chapter. Over weeks and months, Tellus builds a complete, written life story – structured, edited, and ready to read.
This isn't a transcript. It's their autobiography, told in their words, shaped into something your family will pass down for generations.
Output Two
Turn grandpa's stories into your child's favourite children's book.
The time your dad got lost in the woods becomes "The Boy Who Found His Way Home." The story of how your parents met becomes "The Dance Under the Stars."
Tellus takes real memories and turns them into illustrated storybooks your kids will actually ask for again and again. This is how your children fall in love with a grandparent they might barely get to see.
A memoir you can hold. A story they told.
Preserved Forever
Their voice. Preserved exactly as it is.
The memoir is beautiful. The stories are magical. But nothing replaces the sound of their actual voice – the laugh, the pause, the accent. Every original voice recording is preserved so your children and their children can press play and hear them exactly as they were.
Privacy First
Their stories. Their rules.
Every recording is encrypted, private, and fully controlled by the person who made it. They choose who gets access. No one outside your family will ever see or hear a single word. This is not social media. This is a family vault.
