How AI is used

Every Story Universe adventure is written and illustrated by AI, guided by what you tell us about your child.

What the AI does

Google AI models, accessed through Lovable's AI service, help plan each chapter, write it for the selected age band, check it for safety and tone, and draw illustrations in Story Universe's original storybook style.

What it remembers

Characters, places, objects and unfinished promises from earlier chapters are stored so the story stays consistent as it grows. That memory belongs to your family and is not shared.

Information sent for generation

A generation request can include the child's parent-chosen story name, age band, interests, personality traits, hero description and relevant story history. Only information needed for the requested story or picture is sent. Story Universe does not knowingly permit submitted names, story text or legacy photographs to be used to train external models. More detail is available in the Privacy Policy.

What it is not

Generated stories are imaginative fiction, not factual or educational material. Illustrations are original artwork in our own style; they are not copies of any existing film, programme or studio, and the drawn hero is an interpretation rather than a portrait.

Occasional imperfection

AI sometimes gets things wrong. If a chapter or picture does not come out right, tell us — and if a paid generation cannot be completed, your credit is returned automatically.

Parent supervision

Safety checks reduce risk but cannot guarantee that every generated detail will be perfect. A parent or guardian should supervise use and decide whether each story is suitable for their child. To report a concern, email hello@herotales.org.
