All 54 Torah portions, curated
Enter the simcha date and we find the parsha. Then a guided library shows what that portion is actually about — you pick the themes your kid genuinely lives and back each with a real story. No invented Torah, ever.
Nachas
Your child has been preparing for months. Now it's your turn on the bimah. Nachas turns your stories and their actual Torah portion into speeches that could only be about them — for every speaker in the family.

Generic tools produce a generic bar mitzvah parent speech — vaguely warm, vaguely Jewish, instantly forgettable. Nachas is built on a different foundation.
Enter the simcha date and we find the parsha. Then a guided library shows what that portion is actually about — you pick the themes your kid genuinely lives and back each with a real story. No invented Torah, ever.
Mom, Dad, Grandma, big sister — everyone speaks, and every speech is written knowing what the others say. Each Torah theme belongs to exactly one speaker. The room never hears the lemonade-stand story twice.
Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, or Just Jewish — choose once, and every speech, candle couplet, and book page speaks the way your congregation speaks. From Hashem and Shabbos to values-forward and English-first.
Your child's spark, their preparation, their mitzvah project — and their parsha, found automatically from the date.
Each speaker answers their own questions. Send a short interview to the rabbi, teachers, and camp friends to gather memories.
Three drafts per speaker — Heartfelt, Light & funny, Torah-woven — each distinct from every other speech at the simcha. Revise line by line.
Candle-lighting couplets for the reception, and the Simcha Book: every speech, memory, and blessing, typeset and print-ready.
"And you shall tell your child on that day…"
Everything from the day, compiled automatically: the parsha and its themes in your family's words, every speech given on the bimah, the memories and blessings the community sent in, the candle-lighting ceremony, and a closing page of the family's wishes. Your kid reads it at 40 and cries.
Hardcover printing of the Simcha Book available as an add-on.
Nachas is built on a curated, reviewed library of all 54 Torah portions. You select the themes your child genuinely lives, back each one with a real story, and the speech is constructed only from accurate parsha material and your own words — no invented Torah, no generic filler. It also coordinates every speaker at your simcha so no story or theme repeats, which no chat window can do.
Choose your community once and everything speaks that way: Hashem or God, Shabbos or Shabbat, Torah-and-mitzvos or values-and-tikkun-olam. There's also a "Just Jewish" voice for culturally Jewish and interfaith families with mixed audiences.
Enter the date of the simcha and Nachas finds that Shabbat's parsha automatically — including double portions, where it asks which half your child is reading.
The speeches are built from your stories, your kid's quirks, and your answers — and you'll see the most personal paragraph of every draft before paying anything. If it doesn't read like your family, don't pay. Then revise any line until it sounds exactly like you.
Your stories are used only to write your speeches and your book. They're never used to train AI models and never shared. Delete them anytime.
Start the interview free — or leave your email and we'll send your guide: "What to say on the bimah: a parent's field manual."
No spam. One simcha's worth of help, then silence.
