Child Experiences Lead
TinyPal is a voice-first AI companion for children aged 2–12. It runs on a tablet, or mobile. Just a character called Tinu who shows up, knows the child’s name, remembers what they said last time, and plays with them — really plays, the way a slightly-too-chaotic older cousin would.
Parents built this with us because they wanted screen time that left their child more of something — more curious, more confident, more connected to the family — not less. Tinu is how we deliver that. Not through lessons. Through the twenty minutes a child spends genuinely absorbed in something, without realising they grew a little in the process.
WHAT WE NEED
Tinu's personality is built. What isn't fully built yet is the play itself.
We have a set of games and activities inside TinyPal — word games, story games, memory games, thinking games. But right now they live more as concepts than as experiences. Nobody has sat with each one and asked: does this actually feel like something a six-year-old would beg to do again? Does it work when the child says nothing? Does it still hold a ten-year-old? Does the version two friends play together feel different enough from the solo version to be worth having?
That's the work. And it's less about game mechanics than it is about understanding children — what earns their trust, what loses their attention, what makes them feel capable, what makes them quietly switch off.
WHO THIS IS FOR
You've spent real time with children — as a teacher, a therapist, a parent, a researcher, a writer for them — and you carry something from that experience that's hard to teach: you know when a child is genuinely engaged versus just compliant. You can feel the difference.
WHAT YOU'LL SHAPE
- Which activities belong — and what makes something right for TinyPal versus just a good idea
- How each activity needs to shift across ages, so a 4-year-old and a 10-year-old are both getting something real
- How the experience holds when a child goes silent, gives a wild answer, or drifts mid-way through
- How it deepens over time, so a child six months in encounters something richer than a child who just started
We're early. If this sounds like the thing you've been looking for a reason to build — let's talk.
