Your photo stays private.
Your photo is uploaded to our server and processed by OpenAI to draw your preview. Free previews stay in your open browser.

If the book is for a child, you must be their parent or guardian, or have permission from one.
Good questions.
Do I pay before seeing anything?
No. You see their character and one story page first. No card is needed for that.
Will the character actually look like them?
The free preview shows an illustrated character drawn from your photo. Likeness varies, so you can see the result before deciding whether to save their book.
Can I write my own story idea?
Yes. Choose “My idea” and describe what should happen. One clear sentence is enough.
Who can the books be made for?
Anyone. Pick a reading level from ages 3 to 5 up to adult, and we adjust the words, tone and detail.
Can I add a gift message?
Yes. Add a dedication when saving your book, then check it in the final proof.
Is checkout live yet?
Yes. Create your free preview, choose A5 or A4, then pay securely through Ziina. We create the remaining illustrations after payment. You approve the finished proof, then our team separately approves and releases it to print.
