Heeyo offers an AI chatbot for kids aged 3–11 plus over 2,000 interactive games and activities, including books, trivia and role‑playing adventures. The app lets parents and children design custom AIs and create new learning games tailored to family values and interests. Heeyo emphasizes safety and privacy: it is COPPA‑compliant, immediately deletes children’s voice data, does not store demographics, and includes parental controls and age‑appropriate rules in its engine. Technically, the product blends models — using OpenAI for chat, ElevenLabs and Microsoft Azure for text‑to‑audio, and Stable Diffusion for images — with its own rules around developmental milestones. The team includes children’s book authors, former creatives from Nickelodeon and Sesame Workshop, child psychologists and pediatricians. Heeyo monetizes via in‑app tokens (examples: $4.99 for 200 tokens, $9.99 for 500, $59.99 for 4,000) and plans a possible creator/developer ecosystem; proactive parental alerts are planned soon.
