Remento's automatically generated stories
Our AI Writing Tool lets you customize how each story appears in your book. Choose between a polished narrative (in first or third person) or a cleaned transcript that preserves your exact words minus the "ums" and "ahs." You can adjust the length of each story and edit any text directly to add details or make corrections.
Specifically, there there are three different ways for your story to be generated:
Cleaned transcript: Your exact words with "ums" and "ahs" removed and punctuation added for clarity.
First-person story: A restructured version of the transcript designed to sound more like a written story, written as if you had hired a ghostwriter to write on your behalf (e.g., "I went to the store"). In this version, the length of the story can be adjusted.
Third-person story: A restructured version of the transcript designed to sound more like a written story, written as if you had hired a biographer to write about you (e.g., "Lisa went to the store"). In this version, the length of the story can be adjusted.
The original recording remains unchanged and accessible when viewing the story on Remento's site, as well as through the QR code in your printed book, preserving both the written story and the authentic telling for future generations.
Changing the perspective of a story
Making these changes and editing the text in your story happens directly on the story page (see below), and you can do this from any device.
When viewing a story, select the Make Changes button, select AI Writing Tool, and try out the different settings.
When making updates, Remento first generates a preview of your story. This allows you to read and review all updates before saving any changes. If you're happy with the changes, select Update Story to save.
