Shahrzad is named after the legendary storyteller from One Thousand and One Nights - the clever princess who saved her own life through the power of captivating stories. Like her, we believe stories have transformative power that transcends language and culture.
We created Shahrzad because we saw a world where amazing books were locked away by language barriers, inaccessible formats, and limited audiobook availability. Stories that could inspire, educate, and connect people remained unheard.
Our mission is to democratize storytelling through AI technology. Whether you're a parent wanting to share cultural heritage with your children, a language learner seeking immersion, someone with visual impairments reclaiming the joy of reading, or simply a book lover wanting more options - Shahrzad was built for you.
We're not just building an app. We're preserving cultural heritage, breaking down language barriers, and ensuring that the magic of storytelling remains accessible to everyone, everywhere.
