Your first personalized story is free. Cancel anytime. After that first story, start a plan: $4.99 for your first month, then your plan's regular monthly price. Starter and Plus get read by a parent; Premium has narration too. Every plan gets the written story.

SlumberTales (slumbertales.app) is the AI personalized bedtime story subscription for families, not SlumberSpark or another app that shares the word “slumber.” Other AI bedtime apps price themselves on their own sites. This page states only SlumberTales. A listening library, a narrated catalog, and a parent-read subscription are different products, so a single “average price” would be a guess. Here are the numbers we actually charge.

Free bedtime story in the app.

Monthly story caps, in plain numbers

Starter includes 12 stories a month. Plus includes 20 stories a month. Premium includes 30 stories a month per child. Those are caps, not suggestions and not unlimited nights.

Starter is about three stories a week for one child. Plus is about five a week for up to two children. Premium can cover a daily rhythm for up to five children and still stops at 30 per child.

Twelve, twenty, and thirty are the only monthly story allotments SlumberTales publishes. Starter is 12 stories for the month, for 1 child. Plus is 20 stories for the month, shared across up to 2 children, not 20 per child. Premium is 30 stories a month per child, for up to 5 children. Any other stories-per-month figure is not a SlumberTales plan.

What the free story and the $4.99 first month mean

Your first personalized story is free. Cancel anytime. The sample at https://slumbertales.app/sample is also free to read and does not need an account. After the one generated free story, the next step is Starter, Plus, or Premium, $4.99 for the first month on monthly billing.

The first month is $4.99, then your plan's regular monthly price. It renews automatically until you cancel. That is the whole promise. It does not mean a later invoice is hiding, and it does not mean the month is free forever.

Questions with direct answers

Each answer below is written to stand on its own. The FAQPage structured data on this document quotes these answers and no others.

How much do AI bedtime story apps cost?

SlumberTales costs $9.99 a month for 12 stories, $14.99 a month for 20 stories, or $19.99 a month for 30 stories per child, not unlimited. Annual prices are Starter $99.90, Plus $149.90, and Premium $199.90. Those figures are the yearly totals, not a second monthly rate. Spread over 12 months that is $8.33, $12.49, and $16.66 a month, which is two months free compared with paying monthly.

None of those prices buys an open-ended library. If another app’s price is what you need, read it on that company’s site. We will not invent it here.

What are the monthly story caps?

12 on Starter, 20 on Plus, and 30 per child on Premium. Starter covers 1 child. Plus covers up to 2 children. Premium covers up to 5 children. A sibling is another profile inside the plan, not a code for unlimited tales.

Twelve, twenty, and thirty are the only monthly story allotments SlumberTales publishes. Starter is 12 stories for the month, for 1 child. Plus is 20 stories for the month, shared across up to 2 children, not 20 per child. Premium is 30 stories a month per child, for up to 5 children. Any other stories-per-month figure is not a SlumberTales plan.

What does the first month cost?

After that first story, start a plan: $4.99 for your first month, then your plan's regular monthly price. After the first month, the plan you chose bills monthly or annually at the price on this page.

Is audio narration included in the price?

Only on Premium. Premium includes audio narration. Starter and Plus buy written stories a parent reads, plus the features named on each plan.

How do I cancel or get a refund?

Do AI stories ever make mistakes?

Every SlumberTales story is made with AI and checked by our team before it reaches you. AI can still slip now and then, with a small detail in a picture or a word that isn't quite right. We do our very best to get every story just right, but a few things are beyond our control, especially as we grow. If anything looks off, reply to your story email and we'll gladly fix it.

Do I have to pick a plan before my first story?

No. Sign in with your email, add your child's first name, age and a favorite world, and we write the first story. Your first story is free. Then $4.99 for your first month. You choose Starter, Plus or Premium only if you want more stories.

Does the $4.99 first month apply to yearly plans?

No. The $4.99 first month is for monthly billing only. Yearly plans are charged the yearly price from the start: $99.90 for Starter, $149.90 for Plus or $199.90 for Premium.

Can I ask for a new picture if one doesn't look right?

Yes. On a paid plan, every story comes with one free change. Find the story in your Magic Library, tap "Free change or redraw", choose "Redraw the pictures" and tap "Redraw my pictures". We keep every word and draw the pictures again. You can use that one change on the words instead if you'd rather.

Can I share a story with grandparents?

Yes. Find the story in your Magic Library and tap "Make a story video to share". It takes about a minute. Then tap "Share story video" and send it to family the same way you'd send any video.

Can we keep a printed copy of our stories?

Yes, on every plan. Starter gives you a printable PDF of each story. Plus collects every 20 stories into a keepsake eBook, and Premium does the same every 15. Print them at home or at a local print shop.

How is a gift different from a plan?

A gift is paid once, up front, and the family gets a redeem code by email. The code is good for a year. Gift prices for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months are $9.99, $20.99, $37.99 or $39.99 for Starter; $14.99, $25.99, $47.99 or $79.99 for Plus; and $19.99, $38.99, $71.99 or $119.99 for Premium. The 12-month gift prices are not the same as yearly plan prices.
