Create a personalized children’s book in minutes.

Yes — and we’re a little proud of that. You answer a few questions about your child and the kind of story you want, and Scrively writes and illustrates the rest. Most people finish their first book in under five minutes, with no design or writing experience needed.

Yes. Your first book is completely free — no credit card, no trial countdown. You’ll walk through the full wizard, get a real AI-written story with illustrations, and a shareable link you can send to family the same day. If you love it, upgrade when you’re ready. If not, no harm done.

Plus is built for parents, grandparents, and teachers who want to make books regularly — not just once. You get 10 books per month, our full library of 110+ art styles, PDF downloads, a character library so the same heroes can star in multiple stories, more cover and layout options, and the ability to order professionally printed hardcovers. It’s the plan most of our happiest users settle on.

It really comes down to how you want your stories to come to life. Plus is for the classic experience — beautifully illustrated books your child can read with you, share online, or order in print. Pro adds a whole second dimension: AI narration in 40+ voices, background music, sound effects, story branching, and interactive elements that let your child tap and explore as they read. Pro also gives you 25 books per month instead of 10, and removes the Scrively logo from your covers. Both make incredible books — Pro just gives you more ways to make them feel alive.

Of course. Start on Free or Plus and move up the moment you want more — your new plan kicks in instantly, and every book you’ve already made stays yours. You can downgrade or cancel anytime, no fees and no “are you sure?” loops.

Never. The 15 Book Bundle is a one-time purchase, and the credits sit in your account until you’re ready to use them — next week, next month, or next year. Great if you’d rather skip the subscription, or want to gift book credits to someone.

Yes — and honestly, this is where it gets really special. Any completed book can be ordered as a professionally printed hardcover and shipped to your door. It’s the kind of thing kids show their friends and grandparents keep on the coffee table. Hardcover printing is available on any paid plan.
