BloomKiddo

Read full description

BloomKiddo helps you discover your child's unique talents through short, AI-personalized activities you do together — five to fifteen minutes at a time. It's built around a simple loop: play, observe, plan. Every activity is tailored to your child's age and interests. You play together, jot down what happened (optionally with a photo), and BloomKiddo's AI updates a profile across eight talent dimensions: creativity, language, physical, musical, social, emotional, nature, and analytical thinking. Every seven activities, you get a multi-page report — what's emerging, suggested directions, and ideas for what to try next. WHAT'S INSIDE • AI-led activities, tailored to your child's age and most recent observations • Eight-dimension talent profile that updates after every activity • Photo-based observations — the AI reads what you noticed • Multi-page reports every seven activities with broad career directions • Ask the AI: parenting questions, what to try next, lesson and class suggestions • Bilingual: works end-to-end in English and Turkish HOW IT WORKS 1) PLAY — BloomKiddo suggests an age-appropriate activity for your child. Read the instructions, gather what you need, and play together for a few minutes. 2) OBSERVE — Answer a few short questions about what your child did. Add a photo if you'd like. The AI analyzes the evidence and updates your child's talent profile. 3) PLAN — Every seven activities, you get a clear report with strengths, patterns, and broad career directions to explore. Your feedback shapes what comes next. SAFE BY DESIGN We built BloomKiddo with strict guardrails. The assistant never: • Gives medical, psychological, or diagnostic advice • Compares your child against developmental "norms" • Predicts your child's future ("they'll be a great X") • Labels your child with traits or fixed identities • Processes unsafe content involving children A second AI moderation layer checks every response. Adult supervision is required for every activity, and parents are responsible for evaluating suggested materials for their child's age and ability. FOR PARENTS, ABOUT CHILDREN BloomKiddo is designed for parents. Children do not use the app directly. You decide what to share, what to try, and how to interpret the suggestions. We don't collect data directly from children, and we don't market to them. AGES Best for children roughly 3 to 10 years old. PRIVACY We don't sell your data, use it to train AI models, or share with advertisers. Anthropic (our AI partner) does not use API content to train their models. Read our Privacy Policy at bloomkiddo.com/privacy. SUPPORT Open Settings → Support inside the app, or email support@bloomkiddo.com. We usually reply within 24 to 48 hours. Note: Activities are play and exploration suggestions only — not medical, psychological, educational, or diagnostic advice. Always consult a qualified professional for real concerns. ——— BloomKiddo Premium is an auto-renewable subscription. • Price: $7.99/month, after a 1-week free trial • Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase • Automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period • Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID account settings Terms of Use: https://bloomkiddo.com/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://bloomkiddo.com/privacy.html
