It started with a blank page.
A true story about a kid, a stuck pencil, and the AI her dad happened to own.
My daughter draws on everything. She loves it. But every so often she'd come find me, pencil in hand, stuck — she didn't know what to draw. The blank page had won again.
She knows what her dad does all day. I run momor.ai, and momor.ai has an AI that's good at coming up with ideas. So one afternoon she put it together and pitched me: what if the AI just gave her something to draw? Something silly she'd never think of herself. She'd already named it — artsytells. We checked, and the name was free.
So we built it. artsytells hands you an unlikely idea — a banshee training for a marathon, a raccoon reorganizing its sock drawer — and gets you past the blank page and into the drawing. It's her idea. I just had the AI lying around.

From stuck to sketching
The whole trick, in three steps.
The blank page
She could draw anything. She just didn't always know what. Every artist knows the feeling — empty page, empty head.
A nudge from momor.ai
One tap, and the momor.ai engine hands over an idea she'd never have thought of. Weird on purpose. The hard part — deciding — is already done.
And she's off
No staring, no stalling. Just a pencil, a ridiculous idea, and the best part of drawing: actually drawing.
