Hello! I'm Black Horse. I write stories just for you.

How it works

How was Black Horse born?

From the stories I told my daughter every night: a little black horse that hunts clouds, brings water to elephants and delivers parcels in space.

Read the story

Why Black Horse?

We write for the child’s age. When we retell a classic, we keep its heart, soften frightening scenes and bring the story to a calm close.

Questions

Are the stories safe for children?

Yes. Black Horse never writes violence, horror or inappropriate content, and every story ends calm and kind. Family stories shared to the library are reviewed first.

What happens to my child's details?

We only use the name, age and interests needed to write the story. No ads, no data selling, and you can delete your account at any time.

Which languages?

English, German and Turkish. Stories are written natively in each language, not translated.

What happens after the trial?

For 3 days you can try the whole library and narration and have three personal stories written. Cancel before the trial ends and you pay nothing; otherwise Premium continues at 29.99 USD per year; the stories you made stay yours.
