Hi All,

Excited to share Kidovo with you all after months of iterating & refining the product!

We got the idea looking at the crazy amount of time children in our families were spending on Youtube. After researching, we found that this was true for kids all around the world. We looked for alternate platforms that would promote cognitive development and provide a more productive entertainment for kids. We found a few of those platforms but none of those were as popular as Youtube. Our research led us to believe that it is because the platforms lack the amount of content that Youtube can provide, that keeps kids entertained across interests, video styles (animation, live action, mixed) as well as bring all their favorite characters on 1 platform.

We built Kidovo to be an interactive Youtube where we can bring the best kids' content creators and make their content interactive that will keep kids entertained as well as promote their cognitive development. We have a team of educators & parents in house who make the content interactive and recently started testing our AI (trained on the data created by educators & parents) that is assisting and speeding up the process of making content interactive. Kidovo is 100% ad free and certified COPPA compliant by kidSAFE: https://www.kidsafeseal.com/certifiedproducts/kidovo_app.htm....

The first version was launched ~8 months ago and since then we have refined the product based on feedback from a small set of parents & educators.

I would love for you all to try out our platform and share your valuable feedback. Some features worth highlighting:

- We have a mascot, Ovo the owl who will be kids' digital buddy and engage them.

- We have tried to personalize many aspects of the experience, including the fact that our mascot greets your child with the name that you enter. Further, the content is personalized based on age and hence we require parents to enter month & year of birth.

- We also have a unique feature where kids respond to questions from our mascot, Ovo the Owl with their voice and get realtime feedback. We have worked hard to get speech recognition working at acceptable accuracy for kids, but we're still tweaking it to make it better.

- We already have over 750 pieces of interactive content and we are adding around 30 new interactive videos every week. You can explore our content library without installing the app here: https://www.kidovo.com/content.

- Based on the answers that kids get right, our mascot provides encouragement & positive reinforcement and they win points that collect using which kids can customize aspects of the mascot.

- There is no ads or in app purchases, except for a subscription that we recently started testing. If you encounter the screen, feel free to press "Maybe Later" and you should be able to enjoy the app for 14 days without any interruption.
