The Engines Behind Our Little Book, Available to Your Product
Quill writes and paints. Ink listens and redraws. Same two tools that make every Our Little Book, now ready to power personalized, illustrated experiences inside whatever you're building.
What You Can Build
Personalized, Illustrated, At Scale
The shape of the product is yours. The craft of the pages is ours.
A welcome that paints itself
Subscription onboarding that hands new customers a small illustrated story starring their own family. A loyalty milestone that earns a custom page. A receipt that comes with a tiny illustrated thank-you.
Apps where a page is the point
Reading apps for kids. Bedtime story platforms. Family journaling. Anything where a personalized, illustrated page is the moment users actually keep.
Keepsakes for tender moments
Memorial books for funeral homes. Adoption-day storybooks. Custom keepsakes for marketplace creators who want a kind, polished pipeline they don't have to build themselves.
Better than a gift card
HR teams running rewards. Partner gifting. Anyone who'd otherwise mail a $25 gift card. Give people a real book they make for their own family instead.
How the Pipe Fits
Four Calls, Front to Back
You bring the inputs
Characters, prompts, story beats, or whatever your product collects. Structured the way our engines like to read, with a small SDK to keep it tidy.
Quill writes and paints
Your job hands Quill the inputs. It writes the story and illustrates every page. You stream the result back to your users, or store it and serve when ready.
Ink handles revisions
When a user wants a page different, your product calls Ink with the page and the note. It listens, redraws, and ships back just that page. Same paint, same hand.
Print, deliver, or hold
Take the finished file and do whatever your product does next. Ship a hardcover through our print pipeline, render a PDF, embed a viewer, or hand the file back to the user.
Why Plug Us In
What You Don't Have to Build
The craft is already in the engines
Holding a character's face steady across thirty pages. Listening to a redraw note and acting on it. Painting in a real voice, not a generic one. That's not something you wire up; that's what the engines are.
We run the messy parts
Prompt tuning, retries, the QA gate that catches a face that drifted, image hosting, the second-pass logic. You call an API. We run the small studio behind it.
Your brand on top
Your product, your UI, your voice. The engines stay quiet underneath. We're happy being the studio, not the storefront.
Watercolor for now, more to come
Watercolor is the brand for Our Little Book. Quill and Ink are style-agnostic underneath, so other voices are possible. Tell us what your product needs and we'll talk.
The Honest Bit
A Small Family Studio, Real Engines
We're two people and a couple of kids. Quill and Inkare real today, painting every Our Little Book that ships. The pass-through pipe is the thing we're building next, and we'd rather build it with the first few teams who actually want it than guess at what you need.
If something you're working on sounds like a fit, drop us a line. Worst case, we have a nice talk.
Tell Us About What You're Building
A few sentences is plenty: the product, the audience, the page you want every user to keep.
