Us vs. them

Real personalization, not a name in a blank.

Some personalized books just drop in a name or paste on a face. Ours places your child into the scene, in the book's own art style.

The usual way

Template personalization

  • A name in the text
  • A pasted-on face
  • Flat on every page
Our way
Magikast

Personalized from one photo

Rendered into the book's own art style.
  • Your child, from one clear photo
  • In each book's own art style
  • Checked before printing

The craft stays human. The personalization is what's new.
