Pixiboo

Pixiboo turns search-and-find books into a family project. Kids design personalized characters, dress them up, and hide them inside illustrated scenes so parents and siblings can hunt for them again and again.

The artwork starts with hand-drawn scenes from independent artists. Pixiboo trains a generative model on each artist's style, so when you create a character it fits the illustration while paying the artist behind the work.

Built by the Foody family (Brian, Gemma, Molly, and Lily), Pixiboo targets parents who want screen time that still connects kids to art and storytelling. The web app at app.pixiboo.ai is marked suitable for children aged 2 and up.

Top Features:
  1. Design a personalized character with custom costumes before hiding it in the scene

  2. Pick from illustrated settings like a Sydney beach, carnival, opera house, or spooky mansion

  3. Replay the same artwork by hiding your character in new spots for endless rounds

  4. Artists earn when you generate a character trained on their hand-crafted illustrations

  5. Start with free artwork creation through the Pixiboo web app

Pros:
  1. Characters can be hidden and replayed in the same illustration instead of a one-time printed puzzle.

  2. Artist compensation is built into character generation on hand-drawn scenes.

  3. The web app offers free artwork creation before any paid pre-order checkout.

Cons:
  1. No dedicated pricing page; plan details beyond free creation are limited on the public site.

  2. Scene library is still a curated set rather than unlimited custom backdrops.

  3. Social profile links on the marketing site point to placeholder anchors rather than live accounts.

FAQs:

What age range is Pixiboo designed for?

Pixiboo marks its web app as suitable for children aged 2 and up. Parents create the characters and scenes, then family members search the artwork together.

Can you play a Pixiboo artwork more than once?

Yes. Pixiboo lets you hide the same character in an illustration repeatedly, so the search-and-find game can be replayed instead of finishing after one pass like a printed book.

How does Pixiboo pay the artists behind the scenes?

Pixiboo says each scene is hand-crafted by an artist and that artists are paid when you generate a character using a model trained on their artwork.

Is Pixiboo free to try?

Pixiboo's marketing site links to free artwork creation at app.pixiboo.ai. Paid pre-orders are also offered through a Stripe checkout link on the homepage.

Where do you create Pixiboo characters and scenes?

Character creation and artwork selection happen in the Pixiboo web app at app.pixiboo.ai. The main pixiboo.ai site explains the product and links into the app.
