🐾 For Creators

Learn how to create amazing BarkBack™ stories and grow your creator journey

What is a BarkBack™?

A BarkBack™ is an emotionally rich, AI-generated story told from your pet's perspective—complete with voice, tone, and personality. Each BarkBack™ captures your pet's unique character and transforms everyday moments into engaging narratives that bring your furry friend to life.

How do I create one?

Creating a BarkBack™ is simple and fun:

Start by building your pet's profile with photos and personality traits
Use our BarkBack™ Wizard to choose a voice style that matches your pet
Select an emotional arc (playful, wise, dramatic, etc.)
Choose a story template or let our AI create something unique
Preview, edit, and publish your BarkBack™ to share with the world

Can I earn money from my BarkBack™ stories?

Yes! There are several ways to monetize your creativity:

Tips: Listeners can tip you directly for stories they love
Seasonal Campaigns: Join contests with cash prize pools up to $5,750
Voice Pack Sales: Create and sell custom voice packs in our marketplace
Featured Creator Status: Get promoted across our platform for higher visibility

Do I own the content I create?

Absolutely! You retain full rights to your pet's likeness and the stories you create. BarkBack™ provides IP protection tools to help you safeguard your creations, and we only use your content with your permission for platform features like highlighting winning campaigns or showcasing creator success stories.

What's the difference between a voice pack and a BarkBack™?

Voice Packs are reusable voice styles and personalities (like "Playful Puppy," "Wise Elder," or "Dramatic Cat") that you can apply to any story. Think of them as the "actor" for your pet's story.

A BarkBack™ is a complete story experience that combines a voice pack with your pet's unique personality, an emotional arc, and a specific narrative. It's the finished "movie" starring your pet!
