We believe every child deserves to explore the wonders of artificial intelligence — safely, joyfully, and on their own terms.
In 2024, AI became impossible to ignore. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini — these tools transformed how we work, learn, and create. But as parents ourselves, we noticed something troubling: none of them were built with children in mind.
Our kids were curious. They wanted to ask questions, explore ideas, and learn through conversation with AI. But the tools available were designed for adults, with adult content, adult complexity, and adult risks.
We knew there had to be a better way.
GentleGateAI started as a weekend project to make AI safe for our own children. What began as a simple filter grew into something bigger — a complete reimagining of how AI should work for young minds.
Today, our mission is simple: give every child a safe space to explore AI, while giving parents the visibility and control they need.
Everything we build is guided by these core principles.
No feature ships without passing our safety review. We'd rather over-filter than under-protect.
Parents should know exactly what their children are learning. No black boxes, no hidden data collection.
AI should help children learn and grow, not replace their thinking or creativity.
Every family is different. We build tools that adapt to your values, not the other way around.
Your data belongs to you. We don't sell it, we don't mine it, we don't share it. Period.
A 6-year-old and a 16-year-old have different needs. Our AI adapts to meet children where they are.
We make these promises to every family that uses GentleGateAI:
We believe AI will transform education. But schools face unique challenges: managing hundreds of students, complying with regulations like COPPA and FERPA, and ensuring equitable access to technology.
GentleGateAI for Schools provides:
Help us build a future where every child can safely explore the wonders of AI.
