Ouba is interactive romance you read and steer. Every story is a serial with a premise and an ending. At each scene you pick one of the moves or type your own, and the next scene follows from it. Start reading free in your browser, no signup. The Android app is on Google Play, and on iPhone you read in the browser. Sign in to keep your stories. Credits are only for reading past the daily free turns.
Chat apps give you characters with no story. Reading apps give you a story you can't touch. I built the thing in between.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Andy. I was an entrepreneur in residence at Wattpad and ran its incubation lab. That's where I found these readers: romance and fanfic fans who finish a story and want more of the characters. A lot of them ended up in character chat. One told us: "keep having to remind the character 'yes you two are married, yes you are a demigod, no your last name isn't this!'"
Ouba is romance and fanfic you read like a story and steer like a game. Every story has a premise, remembers what happened, and actually ends. Pick a move or type your own line, and the next scene follows. If the story you want doesn't exist yet, you can write one in a few minutes.
Not a boyfriend bot. A story that lets you in.
Free in the browser (optimized for web and mobile). Android app on Google Play, iOS coming soon.

If you try one, tell me the scene where it died. The choice felt fake, the character snapped, the heat dropped, the plot stalled. That's the feedback I can actually use. I'm here all day.
