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 graduation, and the kind of line it comes back as. Written examples — the songs above are the real ones.

You writeNearly switched courses in second year

It singsSecond year you almost walked, and you stayed

You writeMum drove her to halls and cried the whole way home

It singsShe drove home the long way so nobody would see

You writeFirst in the family to go

It singsFirst one through that door, and you held it open behind you

Before you ask

Questions people ask.

Is this better for the graduate or their parents?

Both react, differently. The graduate hears their own last four years; the parents hear the child leaving. If you want the second effect, include a line about who drove them to halls.

Can I give it at the ceremony?

It is a link and a digital card, so you can open it on a phone in the car park. Most people send it the evening of, once everyone has stopped taking photographs.

Does this work for a school leaver as well as a graduate?

Yes, and the age barely changes it. Say what they finished and what is next, and the song follows that rather than assuming a university.

What if they hated the course?

Then that is the story, and it is a better one. Finishing something you disliked takes more than enjoying it. Say so in the brief and you get a song about persistence rather than a celebration of the subject.

Can it come from a grandparent?

Often the most affecting ones do, because they can reach further back than anybody else at the ceremony. A line about what the graduate was like at six, from someone who was there, is not something a card can carry.

What do I include if I was not there for most of it?

Say what you saw at the edges: the phone calls, the summers, the year they went quiet. A song that is honest about watching from a distance is truer than one claiming to have been in the room.

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.
