Make every exhibit an adventure kids remember
AskOwlo creates free audio stories about your museum's exhibits and themes. As Owlo and Koko explore your collection, a visit becomes a learning experience children talk about for weeks.
What is AskOwlo?
AskOwlo is an audio storytelling platform where two characters — Owlo (a wise owl) and Koko (a curious young fox) — turn any topic into a lively five-minute conversation. Koko asks the questions children are already wondering, and Owlo answers with fun examples, simple experiments, and comparisons kids can relate to.
What we offer museums
Enrich your children's programme with audio stories that bring your exhibits to life — at no cost.
Your own museum story page
A branded page on AskOwlo, with stories built around your museum's themes, exhibits, and educational mission.
Custom stories about your exhibits
We write bespoke stories about your collection — from dinosaur fossils to Van Gogh's paintings to how aeroplanes fly.
Completely free — forever
No licence fees, no contracts. AskOwlo for Museums is free because we want more children to fall in love with learning.
Pre-visit & post-visit engagement
Stories to enjoy before a visit (building the excitement) and after (cementing what they discovered). Optional visuals add to the experience.
Safe & age-appropriate
Every story is reviewed for quality and safety. No ads, and no data collected from children. GDPR and COPPA compliant.

Stories in English, Dutch, and Arabic — perfect for international visitors and travelling families.
