The most personal gift you'll ever give
A book your girlfriendson can fall asleep to in your voice.

I have a niece, "Lael," who is almost 3. She loves when I read books to her whenever I'm with her, and she loves falling asleep listening to them. Then I moved to the Bay Area for work and wasn't able to spend enough time with her, between work, time zones, and everything else. We tried FaceTime a couple of times, but it just didn't work out for her because of screen time, and she literally lost sleep over it.

So I started sending her little voice notes of me reading books, editing them, and sending them her way. Lael's parents began playing them on Alexa before bedtime, and now every night she wants "Dany Uncle" reading her books. As Lael grew, she wanted longer stories, and the voice notes weren't cutting it anymore. So I started using a bunch of different tools to record and edit them, which was honestly such a pain.

That's when I decided to solve it myself and built a little tool to make recording and editing easier. I was talking about it with a friend, and he said, "I want to record a book I wrote for my fiancée." That's how NooLio was born, starting with my niece Lael, then a friend, and it made me think of bringing this experience to anyone missing their kids, their parents, a friend, a spouse, or anyone else. Give it a try, I promise you'll love it.
