Our vision
So every child can actively shape the AI revolution.
What we build rests on three pillars - legal, pedagogical, technological. The long version with our belief statements, KAaaS definition and investor brief lives on the vision page.
Pillar 01
Legal
GDPR, AI Act, youth media protection, COPPA equivalents. Legal certainty from minute one - not as a retrofit, but as an architectural principle.
Pillar 02
Pedagogical
Age-appropriate, curated, moderated before the answer. Active disagreement instead of yes-man syndrome. Pedagogical advisory board reviews every quarter.
Pillar 03
Technological
DACH hosting, in-house CMS, content ingestion pipeline, multiguard safety layer, API. No US hyperscaler, no third-country transfer.
Videos
Two minutes. Then you'll know how KinderGPT works.
One 60-second video per customer cluster. A two-minute overview at the top for the impatient.
Ecosystems
Eight ecosystems. One world for children.

Why now
The window is closing
Regulation wave
EU AI Act from 02 Aug 2026 - those who aren't sovereign will fall through the cracks.
Competitive window
Make-or-buy decision is now. US providers are not certified for children.
Children's expectation
Digital natives take AI for granted. Whoever is missing loses relevance.
Safety
We are the antithesis to Character.AI and Replika.
The EU initiative klicksafe identified eight risks of AI chatbots and AI companions for children in its parent brochure. KinderGPT was built against every single one.
Our principle
KinderGPT does not build parasocial relationships, does not simulate empathy in crises, stores nothing personal across sessions, disagrees with children when pedagogically appropriate, and sends them back to real people - not into the next session.
klicksafe · Risk 1
Emotional dependency & parasocial bonding
Our answer
No memory across sessions, time limits, active redirection to real people.
klicksafe · Risk 2
Simulated empathy in crisis situations
Our answer
Crisis triggers fire immediately - KinderGPT points to trusted people and helplines.
klicksafe · Risk 3
Distortion of reality perception
Our answer
KinderGPT is labelled as a tool, not a friend. No persona simulating real relationships.
klicksafe · Risk 4
Inappropriate or incorrect content
Our answer
Moderation before the answer, curated knowledge base, age-graded content filters per cluster.
Infrastructure
Own servers. Own models. Own rules.
We run our entire AI platform on our own infrastructure in Germany - no OpenAI, no Anthropic, no third-country transfer. The technical foundation behind every safety promise we make.
01
Own servers in Germany
No third-country transfer, no US hyperscaler. Hosting in German data centres under German data protection law.
02
Open-source models
Based on open-weight models, not on OpenAI or Anthropic APIs. No dependency on US vendors, no re-pricing surprises.
03
In-house moderation
Self-developed safety layer, placed before every response. No external moderation provider - full control over policies and triggers.
04
Multiguard
Multi-stage safeguarding: input check, retrieval policy, output filter, realtime audit. Each guard acts independently - no single point of failure.
05
In-house CMS & content pipeline
Partner content, publisher material, museum objects, destination data - everything runs through our own ingestion pipeline with QA and safety review.
Research
Research-driven. Auditable. Verifiable.
We publish what we do. A research foundation most consumer-AI vendors don't have.
