Send a message.
Your plush says it out loud.

Squish & Wish is a huggable speaker with a personality. Write from the app and the plush says it in a real character voice — whisper it, giggle it, or read it straight.

How it works

Three minutes to the first “hello”.

No screens for the child, no accounts for them to manage. You do the setup once; from then on the plush is just a plush that talks.

  1. 1

    Claim the plush

    Scan the QR code on the box, then let the app put the pod on your Wi-Fi. It shows up in the app named and ready.

  2. 2

    Write it, tag it, send it

    Type a note, drop in a [whispers] or two, and send now — or schedule it for 7 PM, every night, forever.

  3. 3

    The plush speaks

    It speaks in character, out loud, from wherever it sits. You get a receipt the second it plays — and a replay whenever they ask.

Voice modes

Two ways to say it.

Every message goes out in one of two modes. Fast is for the quick ping. Expressive is for the ones they’ll ask to hear again.

Fast1 credit / character

A clean, natural read in about half a second. Plain text in, plain text out — no tags, no theatre, no waiting.

  • Speaks in ~0.4s from tapping send
  • Cheapest on credits — twice the messages
  • Annotation tags are stripped, not spoken
Reach for it when: “on my way”, pick-up reminders, the nightly 7 PM routine, anything that just needs saying.
MOST-USED MODE
Expressive2 credits / character

Runs on the v3 voice engine, so annotations actually land: a whisper whispers, a giggle giggles, and a pause is a real pause.

Drop these in anywhere

Reach for it when: goodnights, birthdays, “I’m proud of you”, the silly voice they beg for at bathtime.

The same goodnight, twice

Flip the mode and watch what changes before you send.

[whispering] Sleep tight, little bear [soft giggle] I saved you a WISH.
Renders in ~1.6s88 creditsWhisper, pause, giggle

Same 44 spoken characters either way — Expressive just costs two credits each. Switch per message, or set a default per character in the app.

Timing

Send it at 7 PM sharp.
Or send it before the lift doors close.

Bedtime doesn’t wait for you to be free. Put messages on the calendar ahead of time, and keep the ones you say every day one tap away.

ScheduledNext in 2h 14m

Write it whenever you have a minute — Tuesday lunch break, the airport, the night before. It lands at the time you picked, in the voice you picked.

Queued on our side, not your phone — it still speaks if your battery died at the airport.

Quick sendsOne tap · no typing

The six sentences you say a hundred times a year. Save one once, then fire it from the top of the app — tag, voice and mode already set.

Save any message you’ve already sent as a quick send — or hold one down to put it on the schedule instead.

Quick sends live on the home screen of the app and in the phone’s share sheet. Credits are counted the same as anything you type.

The cast

Two characters. Two voices.
A shelf with room to grow.

Chuck and Pierre each ship with their own voice, vocabulary and mood. Switch between them any time — the same goodnight sounds completely different from a duck than from a bear.

The hardware

A proper plush first.
A speaker second.

Weighted paws, brushed long-pile fur, stitched features that survive a thousand hugs. The electronics hide in a soft pod that unzips out before wash day.

  • Full-range voice driver — words stay clear from across a dark bedroom, capped at a safe volume.
  • Squeeze to hear it again — a squeeze of the foot wakes the pod or replays the last message. That's the only control on the plush.
  • No microphone at all — it can't hear, record or listen. There is no mic in the hardware.
  • 1-year limited warranty — on the plush and the voice pod.

Questions

The things parents ask first

Everything on sale today is a pre-order. Your card is charged when you order, and the first batch ships in late November 2026 — US addresses only for now. We email you the moment your box has tracking; nothing on this site promises an arrival date before the batch exists.

Yes — any time before it ships, for a full refund, no questions. After it arrives you have 30 days to return it: free return shipping within the US, as long as the pod, cable and box come back complete and undamaged. The plush and voice pod carry a 1-year limited warranty.

The plush is a one-time $95. Squish & Wish Club is a separate subscription that powers the character voices, Expressive mode and scheduling — $19.99 a month, or $180 a year ($15/mo billed annually, save 25%). Nothing for it is charged at plush checkout: you start it yourself in the app or on the web once your plush arrives. It auto-renews until you cancel, and access runs to the end of the period you've paid for.

Fast gives you a clean, natural read in about half a second, at one credit per character. Expressive runs on the v3 voice engine: annotation tags like [whispers] or [giggles] are performed, pauses land, CAPS get the emphasis. It takes a second or two longer and costs two credits per character.

One credit per spoken character in Fast mode, two in Expressive. Annotation tags are free — you only pay for what the plush actually says. Club includes 120,000 character-credits every calendar month, about 800 messages at a typical 150-character length.

No. There is no microphone in it at all — it cannot hear, record or listen, and it never writes its own words. Messages travel one way: someone signed in to the account types them, the plush speaks them. A squeeze of the foot wakes it or replays the last message; that is the only control on the plush.

Two today: Chuck the Duck and Pierre the Bear. More are in the workshop, and Club members get each new voice the day it ships — no extra charge.

The voice pod unzips out of the back seam. With the pod out, the plush shell is surface-washable and fully huggable again by bedtime.

Tonight, say goodnight
in someone else’s voice.

Plush $95, pre-order — charged today, ships late November 2026. Club membership is separate, $15/mo billed annually, and starts when your plush arrives.
