## What is Softly?

Softly reads you to sleep.

Beloved classic bedtime stories — The Wind in the Willows, Peter Rabbit, and more timeless tales — narrated in a calm, gentle voice, wrapped in a warm candlelit design with no harsh blue light to keep you awake.

DRIFT OFF, GENTLY
• A soothing narrator reads each story softly
• Layer in ambience — soft rain or a crackling fireplace
• Set a sleep timer and let the story fade you to sleep
• Chapters roll on quietly, so you never reach for your phone
• The story eases out on its own when it ends

A LITTLE LIBRARY OF CLASSICS
Timeless, public-domain stories and gentle verses, chosen to unwind to — read low and slow.

GENTLE BY DESIGN
Warm amber "Lamplight" design, easy on the eyes at night. No ads. No accounts. No tracking. Just a story to fall asleep to.

Sweet dreams.
