About this app

We built Tella to give families personalized adventures that grow alongside a child’s curiosity, confidence, and imagination, putting them at the center as the hero of their own story.

At Tella, we believe every child’s imagination is more than just make-believe, it’s the foundation of who they’re becoming. Decades of research show that stories help kids build language, empathy, resilience, and problem-solving skills, giving them tools to understand themselves and the world around them. That’s why Tella creates deeply personalized adventures, meeting each child exactly where they are and evolving as they grow.

But our mission goes beyond stories. Tella is here to help children see themselves as the hero of their own life; to feel capable, brave, and seen in a world that can feel big and uncertain. We make it joyful and easy for parents to be part of that journey, weaving connection, confidence, and wonder into everyday moments—including the challenging ones where you’re helping your child find their way. Together, we empower children to believe in themselves and create their own path forward through personalized stories.

At Tella, we believe every child’s imagination is more than just make-believe; it’s the foundation of who they’re becoming. Stories give kids language for their feelings, practice for handling hard moments, and space to imagine who they want to be.

That’s why every Tella story is:

Age-aware – tuned to where your child is right now, without talking down to them.
Personalized – reflecting their interests, challenges, and little victories so it actually feels like their story.
Parent-connected – giving you simple ways to read together, spark conversations, and stay close to their inner world.

We work hard to make Tella better every day, always with the best interest of your child in mind. If a story doesn’t nurture imagination, support development, or bring joy, we go back to the drawing board.

It should support problem solving, overcoming obstacles, and blend seamlessly with their real life experiences. It should help you as the parent in knowing what you’re putting on a screen in front of your kiddo is something that will actually be beneficial for them.
