Poe the AI Story Bear generates original, full-length stories based on user input, using kid-safe AI technology. Each story is created from scratch, with options for users to influence the narrative by selecting predefined, family-friendly icons in the free PLAi AI Story Creator app. The process is simple—drag and drop ideas to craft stories in genres like medieval adventures, sci-fi epics, fairy tales, or mysteries. The AI fills in the gaps to produce complete, engaging tales. The app supports creative storytelling for all ages, with older children particularly enjoying the challenge of combining unusual ideas to see how Poe weaves them together. The AI operates on secure, monitored platforms like OpenAI (creators of ChatGPT), ensuring content remains appropriate. Play Safe technology restricts input to predefined icons, preventing exposure to inappropriate themes. No personal data is collected. Stories can be personalized by language, age, and gender, with the option to insert the user as a main character. Finished stories can be saved, rated, and replayed in the app’s library. Poe can also store selected stories internally, allowing playback without a connected device. Ears function as controls for playing and pausing downloaded stories, while the app manages updates and swaps.
