Coming in 2026

Privacy. Protection. Guardian-led.

Encrypted so we can't read it. You can. Spots grooming, predators and harmful content across phone, computer and browser. Rules you set, not ours.

Apply for the beta See how it works

A small group of families is testing GuardianAI before launch. We ask about you, never about your child.

Your values, your rules Private by design Never secret, never shaming Works on every screen
How it works

You set the rules. GuardianAI holds the line.

No dashboards to babysit. No tech degree required. Three simple ideas.

Tell us what your family allows

Answer a few plain questions about what's okay in your house and what isn't. Your answers become the rules, not our opinions, and not some algorithm's.

GuardianAI quietly enforces them

Right on your child's device, it recognizes the bad stuff (explicit images, predatory messages, endless junk videos) and holds it back before your child ever sees it.

You hear about what matters

A simple daily grade instead of a feed of every text and tap. On the rare day something truly needs you, you get one calm alert with one clear decision.

The daily report card

A report card for screen time. Finally.

Every day, your child's screen time earns a simple grade from A to F: the Digital Nutrition grade. More learning and creating pushes it up. Mindless scrolling pulls it down.

And here's the part children actually like: hit the learning goal you set, and they earn bonus screen time. Good habits get rewarded instead of nagged about. You stop being the screen-time police.

You see the grade. You don't have to read their messages or watch their videos to know how the day went.

What's coming

Protection your family will actually feel.

Everything below is being built right now, for launch in 2026.

The feed filter

A healthier scroll

Social feeds are built to keep children scrolling. GuardianAI gently reorders what they serve, so the good stuff shows up more, and the junk fades into the background.

ScreenGuard

Catches harm in the moment

Explicit images and predatory messages get recognized on the spot and held back before they land. On Android that is inside any app your child opens. On iPhone it is inside Guardian Social, a supervised browser for the social sites your child already uses, because Apple gives no app a view into another.

CallGuard

Listens for danger on calls

When a call sounds like a scam or someone trying to manipulate your child, you get a heads-up. The call itself is never recorded or saved.

Distress signal

A quiet way to say "come get me"

One subtle gesture your child can use anywhere (a party, a sleepover, a bus) and every guardian on the account gets the alert and their location instantly.

Trusted Circle

Know who's really texting

When a new contact is another protected child in the GuardianAI network, a quiet shield badge appears next to their name. And no one's contact list is ever uploaded, to us or anyone.

Ride-Share Monitor & Battery Protect

Looks out in the real world too

If an Uber or Lyft goes off-route, you'll know. And when the battery runs low, the phone saves its last charge for reaching you and emergency contacts.

Every screen, one app

Children don't live on one device. Neither do we.

Most safety apps protect the phone and forget everything else. GuardianAI follows your child, with the same rules everywhere.

iPhone & iPad

The phone in their pocket

Android

Phones & tablets

Computers

Windows & Mac

Web browsers

Chrome, Edge & Safari

And on the roadmap: Fire Tablet, Meta Quest, Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch, plus Guardian View, a live look at your child's screen when you're worried. Never in secret: your child always sees when it's on. (On Android you can guide their screen; on iPhone it's view-only, an Apple rule.) One honest limit on iPhone: Apple gives no app a view inside another, so GuardianAI can block Snapchat and WhatsApp or limit their time with Screen Time, but it cannot see what your child does inside them.

Why GuardianAI

What makes us different.

We make the everyday scroll healthier, not just block the worst of it

Other apps wait for something bad and send you an alert after it happened. GuardianAI works earlier: it shapes what the feed serves in the first place, so most days there's simply less to worry about.

One app for every screen in the house

Phone, tablet, laptop, browser, with game consoles on the way. Children move between screens all day; protection that only lives on the phone misses half their world.

Privacy you don't have to take on faith

Your child's photos, messages, and contacts are never uploaded to us: the checking happens on the device itself. What little does sync is locked so tightly that even we can't read it.

Built to never shame your child

GuardianAI is never hidden on the device, and it never frames your child as the problem. Progress gets celebrated with them; concerns come quietly to you. It protects the relationship, not just the screen.

Your values, our engine

Every family is different. GuardianAI doesn't get a vote.

Faith-centered or secular. Strict or relaxed. Whatever your family believes, you decide what's appropriate for your child, and GuardianAI enforces your choices, on every device, every time. We don't quietly nudge any family toward our worldview, because we don't put one in the product.

One product. Every family.

Privacy, in plain words

The safest data is the data that never leaves your child's device.

A lot of apps promise they "respect your privacy." We built GuardianAI so we don't have to ask you to trust a promise: the checking happens on the device, and what isn't sent can't be leaked, sold, or subpoenaed.

That's not a policy. It's how the thing is built.

Your child's photos, messages, and videos stay on the device

GuardianAI checks content right where it appears. The only image that ever leaves is a few frames of a video already public on the internet, with no name attached.

Locked even to us

The few things that do sync (grades, alerts, your settings) are end-to-end encrypted. We couldn't read them if we wanted to.

You stay in control

Nothing starts without a verified guardian's okay, and you can see, download, or delete your family's data anytime. Built to meet COPPA, the strictest U.S. children's privacy law.

Questions

Things families ask us first.

What is GuardianAI, in plain words?
It's one app that looks out for your child on every screen they use: phone, computer, and browser. It understands what they're seeing and hearing, holds back what you wouldn't allow, makes their feeds healthier, and gives you a simple daily grade instead of a flood of notifications. It launches in 2026.
Is this too invasive on my child?
No, and we think that distinction is the whole product. On your side it is open, never secret: your child knows GuardianAI is there, can see what is on and why, and anything like a live check-in shows clearly on their screen. On our side it is sealed: the family data that syncs between your devices is stored as ciphertext under a key only your family holds, so we cannot read it either, and our apps are moving to that by default. And your child's pictures never leave the device: their own photos and videos, and any picture a friend or stranger sends them, are checked on the device or not at all. The only image that ever leaves is a few frames of a video already public on the internet, with no name attached. You see grades, patterns, and real alerts, not private conversations. It's the difference between a guardian who's present and one who reads the diary.

A guardian's job is to know what is going on in a child's life. What is appropriate to share, and what you are looking for, is a conversation to have openly with your child. In a world of internet, AI, and generated content, watching over your child is doing your due diligence as a guardian.

When can I get it?
We're building toward a 2026 launch on iPhone, Android, computers, and browsers. Join the launch list and you'll get exactly one email when it's ready: nothing else before, nothing else after.
How is it different from Bark or Qustodio?
Those apps mostly watch and alert: something bad happens, you get a notification. GuardianAI works earlier: it shapes what the feed serves so there's less bad to begin with, rewards good habits with earned screen time, and covers every screen instead of just the phone. And it does all of that without uploading your child's private life to anyone's servers, including ours.
Can GuardianAI see inside Snapchat or WhatsApp?
Not on an iPhone. Apple gives no app a view inside another app, so on iPhone GuardianAI cannot see what your child does in Snapchat or WhatsApp. What it can do is block those apps or limit their time with Screen Time. We would rather tell you that plainly than let you believe otherwise.
What will it cost?
There will be a free version, and paid family plans with more protection and more children covered. Final pricing comes with launch, and launch-list members hear it first.
Can my child just uninstall it?
Removing or disabling it requires the guardian PIN, and if anyone tries, every guardian on the account is alerted right away. No system is perfect. We treat GuardianAI as one layer in an ongoing conversation with your child, not a replacement for it.
Does it record calls or videos?
No. When GuardianAI listens for danger on a call, it does so in the moment, on the device, and the audio is discarded immediately. Nothing is recorded, saved, or sent anywhere. Any alert you receive is a conclusion ("this call looked like a scam"), never a recording.

Privacy. Protection. Guardian-led.
