Personalized social stories, illustrated in minutes

Model expectations.
Build positive routines.

ViziTales turns everyday routines into short, illustrated storybooks that star your child — so hand washing, the school drop-off, or the doctor’s visit feels familiar before it happens. Read together on screen, or print a real book for the backpack.

Built for families of autistic, ADHD, and anxious young children — and the therapists and educators who support them.

How it works

From “new and scary” to “I know this story” — in four steps

  1. Pick a story

    Start from 12 ready-made, expert-written templates — hand washing, greeting the teacher, waiting for a turn, naptime, trying new foods, doctor visits, and more. Or describe your own routine and let ViziTales write it with you.

  2. Make your star

    Tap to pick hair, eyes, outfit, and favorite things — no drawing, no prompts. Your child’s character is drawn in seconds as a reference sheet: their “star” for every story.

  3. Watch it paint

    Every page is painted from the page before it, so your star looks the same from cover to cover. No mystery strangers halfway through the book.

  4. Read & print

    Read in a calm, distraction-free reader with tap-to-hear narration — or print a paper book or PDF for the backpack, the classroom, or the waiting room.

The same star, on every page.

Familiar characters are what make a social story land. ViziTales draws your child’s character once, then paints each page from the last — so the hero never changes mid-book.

Who it’s for

Made for the people in a child’s corner

Families

Bedtime-ready books that star your child. Preview tomorrow’s big moments tonight — the first day of school, a haircut, the dentist — with a calm story you can read again and again.

Therapists

For SLPs, OTs, and BCBAs: build individualized stories per client in minutes, not evenings. Print them for sessions and send them home, so practice continues between visits.

Educators

Classroom routines and transitions, illustrated — lining up, circle time, asking for help. Print copies for the calm-down corner and send them home for consistency.

Why we built this

ViziTales is mission-driven. After covering our costs, profits fund speech-language and occupational therapy providers in communities that lack services — so every book a family makes helps another family get care.

“Built to be used, not to get rich.”

Grounded in everyday practice

Social stories are a widely used, evidence-informed practice in homes, clinics, and classrooms. Short, personal narratives let a child preview a routine in a calm moment — so the real moment feels more familiar and expectations are clear. ViziTales simply makes that practice faster and more personal. It isn’t medical advice or a substitute for professional care, and it works best alongside the people who know your child.
