Storyworth in Australia: what it costs in A$, and four alternatives
Storyworth works in Australia: your parent answers a weekly question for a year and receives a hardback. Here is what it costs in Australian dollars, how delivery works, and four alternatives for families whose mum or dad would rather not write every week.
The short answer
Storyworth’s Australian page shows plans from A$99, each with one premium hardback. Its FAQ lists extra copies at A$69 in black and white, A$139 in colour up to 300 pages and A$169 in colour from 300 to 480 pages, with shipping outside the US estimated at checkout. It suits a parent who enjoys writing and will keep it up for a year.
If your parent would rather talk, Notre Livre writes the whole book for them from one guided conversation, in weeks rather than a year, with nothing invented. A family member can hold the conversation instead. It costs A$99 to A$159 for a tribute book and A$159 to A$279 for a memoir, hardback and delivery to Australia included, prices in Australian dollars.
For a one-off price with no deadline, StoryKeeper costs A$139 or A$179 with free delivery in Australia. Keepsake charges A$169 a year for a family-written book. Remento keeps the recorded voice but is priced in US dollars.

Which one fits your family
Your parent enjoys writing
Storyworth keeps their own words, one answer a week. StoryKeeper does the same for a one-off price with no deadline, and Keepsake lets the whole family write together.
Your parent would rather talk
Remento records their voice and StoryKeeper Plus records guided calls. Notre Livre writes a full narrative book from a conversation, and a family member can hold that conversation for them.
You need the book by Christmas
A weekly-question plan runs for a year. With Notre Livre, approve the text by 6 November for a hardback before Christmas in Australia; the digital edition stays possible until 21 December. These are estimates, not guaranteed dates. See our Christmas gift book.
Your parent has passed away
Services where the storyteller answers the questions no longer fit. A Notre Livre memorial and tribute book is written from the family’s memories.
Storyworth in Australia, fairly described
Storyworth sends a question every week by email or text. The storyteller writes back, or records by phone on upgraded plans, and after a year the answers are bound into a hardback. Its Australian page shows plans from A$99, with Basic (black and white, up to 480 pages), Color (up to 300 pages) and Unlimited (two colour books and A$20 off extra books). Its FAQ says books are produced at print facilities in America and Europe, and that shipping outside the US is estimated at checkout (checked 28 October 2026).
It is a good choice for a parent who likes to write and will keep the habit going. If that is not your mum or dad, or a year is too long, the services in the table work differently.
What Notre Livre does, and what it does not
You share memories in a guided conversation: childhood, work, how they met, the hard years, the things they always said. Your first five messages need no account. When there is enough material, you read a free first page and a suggested cover, then decide whether to pay.
The text is written with AI assistance from what you shared and nothing else: no invented facts, dates or quotes, and the length follows the memories. You read every chapter and ask for as many corrections as you need before approving the print. It is not a human biographer’s work, and we never present it that way. Printed books are made on demand by our partner Lulu and sent to Australia by tracked post, in an estimated 24 to 26 working days after your approval.
