# Kidgeni

> Kidgeni is a safe AI art and storytelling app for kids roughly ages 5–12.
> Children turn their ideas into artwork, stories, coloring pages, comics, and
> illustrated books, and can ask "why" questions that are answered at their
> level — inside an account a parent, guardian, or teacher manages.

## What kids can make

- Art: a typed or spoken idea becomes artwork in a dozen kid-safe styles.
- Stories: never-ending illustrated stories the child steers beat by beat.
- Books: a full picture book, written and illustrated in the child's style.
- Comics (new, 2026-08): the AI draws the cover and three-panel pages; every
  speech balloon is pre-written but the child's to retype — the kid writes.
  Four-page volumes end on a cliffhanger the child chooses.

- Learn about anything (new, 2026-08): a question like "why is lava hot?" is
  researched from a closed allowlist of kid-safe sources, explained at the
  child's age band, and illustrated. Not a chatbot: one topic per Discovery,
  three deeper questions suggested under every answer, tender topics flagged
  "talk about it together" for a grown-up.
- Coloring pages and doodle-to-art.

## What makes it safe

- Every prompt a child types or speaks is screened and rewritten toward
  kid-friendly art before anything is generated.
- Every generated image, story, and comment passes its own AI safety check
  before a child sees it.
- Kids sign in with a screened username and PIN — never an email, phone
  number, or password. Grown-ups create and control every account (COPPA).
- No direct messaging. Sharing happens only in Spaces (family or classroom
  groups) a grown-up owns and moderates; kids can flag anything with
  "ask a grown-up."
- Creations are private by default; children's data is never sold or used
  for advertising.
