Unique Parenting Tool, Disguised as a Toy Calling All Parents! Tired of Bedtime Battles & Screen-Time Struggles? “If you want your kids to be intelligent, tell them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, tell them more fairy tales”. -Albert Einstein We are Sami Samiee, Pragnesh Dixit, Sanaz Sabouri and Majid Izadi, and together with our team at Heartoid Ltd., we created ToyPal, a heart-shaped device designed for children aged 3-8 that can be attached to all soft toys and brings them to life. Paired with our AI-powered app, ToyPal as a "parenting tool" allows parents to create highly personalized, screen-free stories for their kids. For kids, it feels like their beloved soft toys are telling them the stories. After a few months of testing and iterating, we are excited to finally launch on Product Hunt! Check this out:
ToyPal allows your child and their favorite soft toy to become the stars of a unique, personalized story anytime. You can also include yourself, family members, friends, and even pets to make each storytelling experience even more magical. 🌟👧👦 One unique parenting feature of ToyPal is the ability to add educational elements, teaching valuable lessons on specific topics or even persuading the kids to do their chores through engaging personalized narratives and storytelling. The ToyPal app “personalizes stories” ensuring kids never tire of the same old tales. Our goal was to create a device that transforms storytelling into magical and unforgettable experiences for children and a powerful tool for parents which harnesses the power of identification in storytelling. In addition the app also supports the creation of “Routines”, enabling parents to set alarms for activities like waking up, brushing teeth, and more by adding phrases and stories to each routine. Whether you want to create quick stories or customized tales to entertain, educate, or persuade your loved ones, ToyPal has got you covered. Up to two children, parents, and other family members can be stars in these delightful stories, ensuring every bedtime is a magical adventure. 📚✨ Here are some of the key features of ToyPal: 📚 Generate unique and personalized stories every night for your child, featuring them as the main character 👨 500+ FREE classics in different categories including Animals, Mythology , Science, Number, Historical Figures, Fairy Tales, Basic Life Skills and many more, with your kid’s name as the main character. 📜 Add an educational or persuasive aspect to the story by adding a moral to teach your child a lesson on a specific topic or to persuade him to do the unwanted tasks 👶 Choose between multiple characters, such as Alien, Unicorn, and more 👮‍♀️🚀 Choose between many genres, such as Humor, Mystery, Superhero, and more 🌎📍Choose where you want the story to take place ✨ Make bedtime a magical and unforgettable experience for both parents and children How does ToyPal work? Attach: Clip ToyPal onto any soft toy. Create: Personalize stories with your child's name, favorite characters, and even family members. Play: Let their cuddly friend narrate the story, sparking imagination and laughter. ToyPal isn't just a toy; it's a partner in your parenting journey. Say goodbye to bedtime battles, picky eaters, and screen-time struggles. ToyPal is the ultimate interactive learning speaker and bedtime storytelling gadget, making parenting easier and more fun.🧚‍♀️🧚‍♂️ Try ToyPal App for FREE now!

@sami_samiee very cool idea. The videos at the bottom, especially when the mom is speaking, were the most compelling part. Have some more feedback for you here:
Daniel Zaitzow
Launching soon!
really neat product! Also a little terrifying - is there any long term data on interaction with these types of toys? Scares me but it might be an amazing parenting tool!
Alexandre Contador
This is so important for first-time parents who want to give a lifelong experience to their kids. Congrats on the launch, its well deserved it :)
Sami Samiee
@alexdigitalmkt Thank you so much for your kind words! We're passionate about helping all parents guide their kids through personalized stories. By embedding their child's name in each story, we aim to make parenting more engaging and help instill positive behaviors in a fun and memorable way. 😊
Nathan Covey
@alexdigitalmkt If you want to give a lifelong experience to your kid, YOU should tell them stories. My best memories with my dad are when he used to tell me stories. I don't really think this AI can replace that connection.
Naresh Meetei
ToyPal has the power to change how kids behave and learn. This is a game-changing idea. Congrats on the launch. Good luck!
Majid Izadi
@nareshmeetei Thank you so much for your kind words! We're excited about ToyPal’s potential to how kids learn. Our goal is to make learning fun and engaging while helping parents guide their children's development. We appreciate your support and well wishes! 😊🎉

So many things that I love about this product - it’s a hardware and software product. Unlike many other apps, this keeps the experience offline and put kids and parents back together with toys. And this can prob resurrect a lot of toys that would’ve been thrown away because the kids are done with them. Maybe this is what Toy Story is like in real life. I’m curious how do you keep the device charged and running? Congrats on the launch @sami_samiee and team!
Majid Izadi
@sami_samiee @tonyhanded Thanks for the kind words Tony, appreciated. The device is charged using a USB-C charging cable, and has around 8 hours of battery time. best regards
Nathan Covey
Seems like an interesting idea. As a soon-to-be parent, however, I would never give this to my child. Children need more connection with their parents. I'm afraid this would give them less. WE should be telling them stories, not some AI. I'm also worried about the potential content this AI could spew out. Kids need to learn how to be bored and use their own imagination. Having something like this to talk to all the time will only add to their world of constant stimulation. I really respect your efforts to create a product, and it seems you've poured your hearts and souls into this, but I don't think this would be a net positive to society.
Majid Izadi
@nathancovey Thanks for your feedback and kind words Nathan, appreciated, gratz on the soon-to-be-born child, i guess you need to wait a few years and then comeback here, you'll like what you'll see.
Tiger L
That's amazing. What impressed me most is how ToyPal integrates educational elements and routines, making it a versatile tool for both fun and learning. Kudos to the team for developing such a innovative product. Congrats on the launch!
Sami Samiee
@tigerl Thanks for the Support
Rihab Zaidi
This is amazing!!! I know today's parents will surely need it as to escape the screens that are stealing our children's attention everywhere from a very young age. Congrats for this great idea and project!
Mukhtar Mohamoud
Awesome idea and incredible well executed - congratulations on the launch today team! Looking forward to see where you take this!
Sami Samiee
@mukhtarmohamoud Thanks for the Support
Majid Izadi
@mukhtarmohamoud Thank you so much for your kind words and support! We're really excited about the launch, and it means a lot to have you cheering us on. ToyPal is the ultimate parenting tool, and we are sure with your help we can make a great impact on children early learning
Dan Robins
Nice idea - I love how this means that it's possible to bring our kid's EXISTING favourite toys to life, rather than having to buy new ones.
Majid Izadi
@dan_robins Thank you! We're so glad you love the idea. Exactly, one of the key goals was to let parents bring their own toys to life, making it even more personal and meaningful without needing to buy something new. Your feedback means a lot to us! 😊
Lu
Congrats on your launch @sami_samiee and the team! This has a lot of potential! I'm curious: can you interact with the toy by giving it voice comands such as "stop", "tell me another story" etc.?
Majid Izadi
@lumi_nertan Thanks Lumi, your feedback means a lot. No, ToyPal has no Mic or Camera (mostly for privacy reasons), but parent can fully control it using our app
Sami Samiee
@lumi_nertan @savian_boroanca Sure! Thanks for the support.
Sami Samiee
@lumi_nertan Thank you so much! For privacy concerns, we’ve intentionally designed the current version without any microphones or cameras. The focus is on delivering personalized audio stories without any voice interaction. But we appreciate the idea and are always considering future possibilities! 😊
Morgane Granier
This is such a smart and sweet product! I don't have kids but I think I would have loved to interact with my favorite toys like this. And for the parents I guess it's a real game changer to "upgrade" their kids toys rather than buying new fancy expensive ones 😂
Majid Izadi
@morgane_glt Exactly! ToyPal is designed to grow with the kids, making it a timeless addition to their toys. No more buying new toys that only last for a week before they lose interest! It’s meant to be gifted, educational, and fun.
Trent Kennelly
I love the use of storytelling in this toy! Really there isn't a lot of uniqueness in the toy space these days (save screen-related things) so this is amazing! Very well done.
Majid Izadi
@trent_kennelly Thanks Trent for your kind words, we wanted to bring something truly unique to the toy space, especially as a screen-free option, so it means a lot to hear your appreciation for it. Your support is incredibly encouraging!
Anastasia Dashkevich
Extremely cute and useful, congrats on the launch! I see that your are available only in the UK. Do you have plans to enter new markets or make an international delivery?
Sami Samiee
@anastasia_dashkevich Thanks for the Support, You can find ToyPal on Amazon in US, UK, EU with next day delivery. You are most welcome to ToyPal family.
Serge Borisov
@makers Wow, very interesting! Not a parent yet, unfortunately, but definitely would recommend to others. What are your perspectives on the "parenting" market, which seems to be declining YoY and children being replaced by... pets :)
Sami Samiee
@makers @asby Thanks for your comments and kind support
Faisal Ishaque
This is a brilliant product. Loved the idea and its simple implementation. All the best for your launch !!
Majid Izadi
@faisal_ishaq1 Your support means a lot to us as we launch—thank you for the well wishes!
Dima Rubanov
Congrats on the launch! Amazing!! Big thanks for the shoutout of Oscar Stories! 😍😍 And what a coincidence that we are trailing behind you on #3 with our second product 😄
Ansar Mehmood
Brilliant idea. It’s rare to see hardware devices using AI in a useful way but ToyPal seems like a great use case
Majid Izadi
@ansar Thank you! We're really excited to hear that you think ToyPal is a cool concept. We’ve worked hard to combine both technology and storytelling in a way that’s practical and fun for kids and parents alike. Your support means a lot! 😊🔧✨
Deepesh Jayal
Interesting. I am perceiving this as personalised screen time. Covering widen range of use-cases from play to learning. All the best!
Majid Izadi
@deepesh_jayal1 Thanks for the kind wishes, there is no screen time, the device is essentially a kids Bluetooth speaker, which can be fully controlled using our app to create new personalized stories or to play more than 500+ free classical stories.
Kate Ramakaieva
Wow! I love the idea! What languages does it currently support?
Sami Samiee
@kate_ramakaieva Thanks for the support, Only English now, But adding a new language is so easy later and we are planning for it.
