StorySitting: An AI Phone Interviewer That Turns Life Stories into Written Chapters
investigatormaker · reddit · 2026-09-24
A developer launched StorySitting, an AI phone interviewer that converts spoken life stories into written chapters. The storyteller just answers a regular phone; the arranger manages everything via the website.
The workflow has three stages:
- An intro call where the storyteller consents to participate
- AI-driven phone interviews (via Retell) asking about concrete memories like a childhood home or first job
- Automatic chapter generation from the transcript, with the original recording kept for fact-checking
The author seeks feedback on the conversation-to-writing handoff and is offering three free Start accounts (three calls and three chapters each); US phone numbers required.
