Show HN: I built an app to turn my kids' questions into podcasts

https://wonderpods.app
12•lielvilla•12h ago
My kids are endlessly curious, always asking questions like “Why do stars twinkle?” or “How do volcanoes erupt?” I love their curiosity, but I found myself constantly searching for good ways to answer them, and without adding more screen time to their day.

Podcasts are great, but kids’ podcasts are often generic and don’t cover their specific questions. I wanted something more personal and engaging.

So I built WonderPods - an app that creates personalized podcast episodes to answer whatever they’re curious about, even saying their name in the story. It turns their curiosity into fun, screen-free learning moments, whether at bedtime or in the car.

We just launched, and there’s a free trial. I’d love your feedback on the idea, the experience, and any thoughts you have on making it better.

*EDIT* Here’s an example episode for 6-year-old Dana, all about telescopes: https://wonderpods.app/listen/ca56e8be-bf58-4323-ad0f-f3bf67... In the app, you can also share episodes with people who aren’t users, making it super easy to spread the fun.

Planning to add an API for this?
lielvilla•12h ago
Didn't think of it... but totally doable! I'll add it to my backlog.

Thanks!

sandinmyjoints•12h ago
Cool idea! I want to hear something it generated before putting in my details to start a trial. Perhaps you could add some sample episodes that it generated so people could get a sense of it right from the landing page.

This is brilliant! curious - how do you see parents using this in their daily routines?
lielvilla•11h ago
Thanks so much! A lot of parents use it in the car, at bedtime to wind down, or just for some screen-free quiet time. I really wanted to make it easy for them to whip up an episode anytime their kid asks a question.

This is great! How’d you make it?
lielvilla•10h ago
hey, thanks for asking! short answer - i combine an LLM model with TTS models to generate and narrate each episode. But there’s a lot more happening behind the scenes to make sure everything is safe, age-appropriate, and sounds natural every time.
