Your Life, Your Story: The Leaves Virtual Biographer
Discover how iCoderz built Leaves — an AI-powered PWA where users feed in names, places, and memories, and the app produces rich, personalised life story biographies automatically.
Leaves — A Virtual Biographer
"Leaves: A Virtual Biographer" is a Progressive Web Application (PWA) that creates a unique space for people to share their life stories and virtual biographies. The app uses AI to produce biographies from user input, enriched with multimedia elements and sharing options.
Built by iCoderz Solutions, it guarantees a seamless web experience equally accessible across all devices — reflecting our ability to implement AI technologies and create web applications where users creatively share personal narratives.
Proposed Team to be Involved
What the Client Needed
The client wanted a new PWA that uses artificial intelligence to generate biographies for its users. The app needed an AI-generated story creation feature producing one free story per user, while letting users write their own life stories and talk to a virtual biographer using structured prompts. Every biography had to support additional media — images, video, or background music — with the ability to create video stories with narration and music, plus formats shareable on social platforms.
Our Application Development Challenges & Solutions
Data Management & Synchronisation
Managing and synchronising user data across local storage was difficult, particularly maintaining consistency between lightweight data (app settings) and complex user content, plus ensuring reliable updates between offline and online states.
We implemented SharedPreferences for fast access to basic app data and Flutter Secure Storage for sensitive information such as authentication tokens. Data structures used JSON encoding for easy serialisation of complex profiles and synchronisation with remote APIs to maintain consistency across devices.
Secure Encryption & Data Modeling
Ensuring secure encryption and efficient data modeling for rich, complex life stories — handling text, audio, and video while maintaining performance and privacy — required careful system design.
AES-256 encryption was applied before saving any personal data. The app combined SharedPreferences for general data with Secure Storage for protected content. Modular, scalable data models efficiently stored and managed diverse story elements including text, audio, video, and metadata.
Platform-Specific Feature Integration
Integrating advanced platform-specific features such as voice recording, video playback, and camera functionality was complex. Each platform (iOS, Android, Web) required different configurations and sometimes limited plugin compatibility.
We optimised native processing for high-quality audio and video while maintaining a unified experience through Flutter components. Platform-specific plugins were carefully selected and enhanced with custom native bridges where needed, and automated build configuration reduced cross-platform inconsistencies.
Cross-Platform Plugin Compatibility
Several third-party libraries and plugins lacked full cross-platform support or demanded extensive native configuration, causing build failures and inconsistent performance across devices.
The team carefully evaluated and optimised cross-platform plugins for consistent functionality. Custom platform channels were implemented where required, and automation scripts streamlined integration, reduced build-time issues, and simplified maintenance.
High-Quality Audio Recording
Achieving consistent, high-quality audio recording across devices was a major hurdle. Variations in microphone sensitivity, background noise, and platform-specific APIs affected overall audio clarity and user experience.
A unified recording controller automatically normalised input levels and suppressed background noise using native APIs. Real-time audio processing ensured balanced sound quality across platforms, while optimised file formats reduced storage size without sacrificing playback quality.
Enhancing the Storytelling Experience
AI-Based Story Creation
Using artificial intelligence, customised life stories are created by feeding in names, maps, and memory moments — providing an excellent basis for extraordinary, personalised storytelling.
Virtual Biographer Interviews
A virtual biographer takes users through detailed questions to make their tales richer in memories, guiding them through an engaging, structured process.
User-Written Stories
Users maintain authority over their stories with personal input while combining it seamlessly with AI-generated content.
Multimedia Support
Every biography supports images, videos, and background music. Users can create video stories with custom narration and music for a cinematic life story experience.
Social Sharing
Stories can be shared quickly across social media platforms in formats optimised for maximum reach and engagement.
Free Story for Every User
Every new user gets one AI-generated story completely free, lowering the barrier to entry and letting users experience the app's core value immediately.
Development Methodology & Progress Monitoring
Implementing SCRUM with AGILE methodologies significantly improved our team's productivity and collaboration throughout the project lifecycle.
Our Project Management System (PMS) let the team track progress, manage tasks, and communicate effectively — with real-time updates on milestones keeping everyone aligned and issues addressed promptly.
