What it does

A voice they love, every night. Spoken Letter turns a real family voice recording into a personal story your child can play on their Yoto — screen-free, parent-approved, and made to be heard again and again. Grandparents and relatives record or upload a memory, Gemini helps shape it into a child-friendly story kept in their own real voice (no cloning), you review it, and it exports as a Yoto-ready story. Launch offer: 2 stories for €2.99 — buy 1, get 1 free.

Live far away? Spoken Letter lets grandparents record custom bedtime stories directly to your child's Yoto player. Screen-free, safe, and easy to use.

Spoken Letter is the easiest way for family to create and send an audio story that a child can play screen-free, across any distance. “I love being able to tell stories to my grandchildren and know they are listening to my voice with an easy way to create new tales.” “SpokenLetter is a wonderful example of technology at its best. It helps me stay close to my niece and nephew no matter the distance, and using it is so much fun!” “We live several time zones apart. Now my voice is part of my granddaughter's day all day long, not a short video call on a borrowed phone.” Search for your family's email to send stories, or create a new space to add listeners. Record a story to send, or approve one…from spokenletter.com

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
