Questions
See all questions Before you start
What is Dandle?
A new, personalized bedtime story every night, starring your child and the real family & friends they love — an original choose-your-adventure delivered by email.
What ages is Dandle for?
Children aged roughly 2 to 8. You tell us your child's age, and the writing grows with them: simple, repetitive sentences for the youngest, richer plots with a touch of mystery for older children.
Are the stories suitable for young children?
Yes. Every story is gentle and age-appropriate: no violence, scary imagery, danger, or adult themes. Each chapter comes to you, not your child, so you can always read it first.
How does the free trial work?
Your first 7 days are free. After that it's a monthly or annual subscription, and you can cancel anytime.
Can my child shape the story?
Yes. At the end of each chapter your child taps a choice, and it steers what happens in tomorrow night's story.
How much does it cost, and how do I cancel?
After the free trial it's a monthly or annual subscription — see pricing for current prices. You can cancel anytime from your account — no phone calls, no hassle.
Is my child's information safe?
We collect only what's needed to create your child's stories, and we use it for nothing else. Our AI providers are configured so your content is not used to train models, and you can export or permanently delete your data anytime from your account page. See our Privacy Policy for details.
