What you get every day

Two things, one fresh briefing.

Wisp wakes up before you do, prepares the day's content, and queues it up. Press play wherever you are — the kitchen, the car, the walk. Or just ask Siri.

1

Today's news, for curious minds

A 10-minute bulletin covering science, world, ecology and tech. Real news for the whole family — the good stuff, without the nastiness. Warm, curious, never sensational. Same show, everyone hears it — chosen by editors, not an algorithm.

2

A topic from what they love

Pick the themes your family loves. Wisp draws today's topic episode from those: dinosaurs, space, weird history, mindset, makers. Safe topics, no nasty surprises. The library keeps growing.

Hands-free anywhere: just say "Hey Siri, play my daily Wisp." Plays without signal — in the kitchen at breakfast, on the drive, on the morning walk.

The library

Thirteen themes. Always growing.

Beyond today's news, a back catalogue of topic episodes to browse — or have Wisp draw from. The library grows every day, so you don't have to keep finding new podcasts.

Safety, properly

Built for families to trust.

Wisp is AI-scripted and AI-narrated — we say so plainly. The rules it follows are written by a human, enforced by machines, and answerable to you.

Three layers of checks

Banned topics are filtered out of the news sources before the AI ever sees them, again in the writing rules, and once more on the finished script — before any audio is generated.

Never on Wisp

Violence, weapons, war, adult topics, gambling, anything frightening. No grey areas, no "depends on context" — if it's on the list, it never reaches young listeners.

Report it, a human answers

Every episode has a report button. It goes to the founder — a real person — who keeps a copy of every script ever aired and can pull any episode within minutes.

Ben, founder of Wisp
Built by Ben, for the school run

Why I built this

My son is seven and curious about everything. We'd exhausted every show we loved together — they're all weekly. I wanted to make something that both of us could enjoy on the drive, every single morning. So I built Wisp. Every morning it makes a fresh show and queues it up. Press play. Drive. We've not exhausted it yet.

Scripts and voices are AI; the editorial brief, safety rules and reviews are human. How that works →

Features

Built for real family life.

Fits the school run

Around 15 minutes: today's news plus one topic. Still driving, or parked up early? The library's right there — they pick one more.

Lucky Dip

A surprise mix of today's fresh episodes plus the back catalogue. Different every time.

Plays without signal

Today's show downloads in the morning, then plays from the phone — through tunnels, in dead spots, in the school car park. No buffering, no sad faces.

Private by design

No accounts. No tracking of listeners. Never any behavioural ads. Your in-app preferences stay on the phone.
