Founder & Storyteller

Priyal Dhrumit Shah

Founder & Storyteller

By day she was designer of electrical panels and trainer to young engineers. By night she's the mom 7-year-old Shivank runs to for one more bedtime story. Priyal Dhrumit Shah is a 34-year-old engineer, trainer and panel designer — a woman in tech who watched her son ask, night after night, for a story where *he* was the hero. Inspired by her mother-in-law Jayshree's storytelling magic, she taught an AI to do what every parent wishes a book could do: put their child's name, face and world inside the story. Young. Energetic. Endlessly social. The founder behind Build Your Book.

Grandma Jayshree

Jayshree Jayesh Shah

Storyteller for 35 years

Long before any AI could write a children's story, Jayshree Jayesh Shah was already telling thousands of them - first to her two sons Dhrumit and Viranch, then to her daughters-in-law Priyal and Vibhuti, and today to her grandchildren Shivank and Ziana. At 62, with a lifetime in teaching and child development, Jayshree is the soul our AI is tuned to. Every story Build Your Book generates is held to one quiet question: *would Grandma Jayshree approve?* She is the woman who inspired Priyal to build this platform - and the warm, unhurried voice every algorithm here learns from.
