What you get

Everything that arrives, from $9.

Written and sung by AI from what you tell us. We say so plainly, because you will hear it and because the part that matters — the details — came from you.

Prices shown in US dollars. In the UK, Europe, Australia, Canada and New Zealand you are charged in your own currency at checkout.

What it does with them

How one detail becomes a line.

The kind of thing people type about a anniversary, and the kind of line it comes back as. Written examples — the songs above are the real ones.

You writeWe met queuing for the wrong train

It singsPlatform four, the wrong train, and the best mistake I made

You writeTwelve years and he still makes the tea wrong

It singsTwelve years of tea I never asked for, and I drink it anyway

You writeThe year the boiler broke and we laughed about it

It singsOne cold winter, two coats indoors, still nowhere else I would be

Before you ask

Questions people ask.

What should an anniversary song include?

Specifics, not adjectives. "Patient and kind" could be anyone; "still texts me from the next room" is them. Three or four concrete details produce a better song than a paragraph of praise.

Is this suitable for a first anniversary and a fortieth?

Both, and they come out completely different. A first anniversary song leans on how it started; a fortieth has decades to draw on. The questions are the same, the material you give is what changes.

Can I give an anniversary song to my parents?

Plenty do, and it is often easier to write than one for a partner, because you have watched the whole thing from outside. What you know that they never say out loud is the material.

What if we do not have a dramatic how-we-met story?

Most people do not, and the ordinary version writes better. A shared bus route, a bad first date that neither of you left, a friend who insisted. Specific and unremarkable beats sweeping and vague every time.

Can I mention the hard years?

Yes, and the songs that include them are the ones that land. An anniversary song that only lists good times sounds like a card. Say what the difficult stretch was and what got you through it, and you get something the two of you will recognise.

Is this better than a keepsake or a framed photograph?

It is a different thing: a photograph shows a moment and a song narrates the whole run. If you want one object on a shelf, buy the frame. If you want the story of the years said out loud, this is the one that does that.

How much does a personalized song cost?

Three lengths: $9 for about a minute, $29 for about two minutes, and $49 for about four minutes, with more re-records and an ending that signs off from you by name. One payment, no subscription.

How long does it take?

Minutes. You answer the questions, read the words, and the recording is made while you wait, there is no queue and no human songwriter to book. Most people finish the whole thing in under a quarter of an hour.

Is it written by a person or by AI?

AI writes and sings it from the details you give. We say so on every page rather than burying it, because you will hear it in the vocal. What is not automated is the part that makes it land: the specifics come from you, and you read the words before you pay.

What if I do not like it?

You see the first verse and chorus before paying, so the usual answer is to change your answers and go again for nothing. After paying, the Little and Big Ditty include re-records if a take comes out wrong.

Can I keep it, and does the link expire?

It does not expire. You get an MP3 to download and a link you can share, and we keep the song indefinitely, there is no window you have to act inside.

Can I play it at a party or an event?

Yes. It comes with a licence to play it at your own event, and the MP3 is yours to hand to a DJ or put on a phone. Use the download rather than the link if the venue wifi is unreliable.

Two minutes to tell their story.

We write it, sing it, and paint the card. You take the credit. From $9.
