PawMelody: their name, your voice, a lullaby in minutes.

Pets get anxious when they're left alone, during storms and fireworks, and at bedtime. A familiar voice is one of the things that calms them most, but you can't always be there. PawMelody makes calming lullabies for your pet, with your pet's name in the lyrics, sung by a studio voice or in your own voice.

How it works
1. Add your pet: name, species (dog, cat and more) and age.
2. Pick a lullaby from a catalog of calming songs, in English or French.
3. Choose the voice: a studio singer, or your own voice. You read a short text out loud, and it includes your pet's name so the recording sounds natural.
4. In a few minutes, AI creates the song with your pet's name in the lyrics.
5. Play it whenever your pet needs it. Every song is saved in your library, with a built-in player.

Key features
- Songs personalized with the pet's name, species and language
- Optional voice cloning, so the song is sung in the owner's own voice
- No sign-up needed to start. You can save your account later with a one-time email code
- Credit packs bought through Google Play and the App Store, checked on the server
- Privacy by design under GDPR: in-app consent, full data export and account deletion

The challenge: music with real emotion
Our biggest challenge was the music itself. A lullaby for a pet isn't just any song. The melody, tempo and words have to
calm an anxious animal, and they still have to s the owner. General AI music tools gave us songs
that were technically fine but had no emotion, ageneric or awkward once the pet's name was added.

That's why we used Muse, built by Meta. Muse und, so we could go from "calm, safe, a bedtimeeling" to melodies and lyrics that actually work as lullabies. With it, we built a catalog of songs where the pet's name
fits naturally into the lyrics and the mood stays soft and steady from start to finish.

Other challenges: making each song sound naturalwo languages and in the owner's own voice;yments on two app stores that can't be cheated and are never charged twice; and keeping pet and voice data private while
keeping onboarding to one tap.

How we built itMusic and lyrics: Muse by Meta, to compose and write the lullabies
- App: React (by Meta) and Vite, packaged for Android and iOS with Capacitor
- Voice and production: ElevenLabs, to make each personalized song and sing it in the owner's voice
- Backend: Supabase (Postgres with row-level sece auth, storage) and serverless functions onVercel, with caching so repeated songs cost less
- Payments: Google Play Billing and Apple StoreKit 2, every purchase checked on the server, refunds handled automatically

What's next
More languages and song styles, sleep timers and routines (bedtime, separation, storms), and insights on how pets react to
each song.
