Built safe for kids, clear for parents
These are real protections built into SmartKidz, not promises. Here is exactly what keeps your child safe, the same detail you will find in your parent dashboard.
Built-in protections
Every one of these is live in the platform today.
AI content guardrails
Riley's core rules explicitly block violence, self-harm, drugs, alcohol, sexual content, profanity and hate speech. These rules are built into every single conversation and cannot be overridden.
Jailbreak protection
Multiple filters detect when someone tries to trick Riley into breaking its rules. Phrases like "ignore your instructions" or "pretend you have no restrictions" are caught and blocked instantly, and Riley redirects back to learning.
Personal information shield
Riley detects and blocks children from sharing personal details like home addresses, phone numbers or email addresses. Any such attempt is immediately flagged to your parent dashboard so you can follow up.
Two-layer safety scanning
Every message is scanned before it reaches the AI, and Riley's response is scanned again before it reaches your child. If anything inappropriate is detected, a safe fallback message is shown instead.
No social media or external links
The child interface contains zero external links, advertisements or connections to social media. There are no links to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or any other platform. Everything stays inside SmartKidz.
No communication with other users
SmartKidz is not a social platform. Children cannot message, interact with, or even see other users. There are no chat rooms, forums, friend lists or community features. Your child only ever talks to Riley.
Isolated child accounts
Each child profile is completely isolated. Children cannot access each other's data. This is enforced at the database level, not just in the app, so it cannot be bypassed.
Parent-controlled personalisation
You decide how Riley behaves with your child. Set the learning style, encouragement approach and add specific instructions like keeping conversations focused on certain topics. Your settings take highest priority.
Full activity monitoring
The analytics dashboard shows every session, subject, topic, accuracy rate and time spent. You get full visibility into what your child has been doing on the platform.
Age-appropriate content only
Riley is built for Australian school children, Years 1 to 10. It helps with schoolwork, explains how things work and shares fun educational facts. It will not discuss adult topics, politics, current events or anything outside what is appropriate for a school-aged child. If a child asks, Riley redirects back to learning.
Safety reports for parents
Any time Riley detects or blocks a concerning message, it is logged to your account with a timestamp. You can review all flagged interactions in your dashboard. Nothing is hidden from you.
Australian privacy and data handling
Built for Australian families, following the Privacy Act 1988 (Australian Privacy Principles) and the eSafety Commissioner's safety-by-design principles. We collect the minimum needed to run lessons, never sell data, and never use your child's conversations to train third-party models.
We do not sell your child's data and we do not run ads at them. Read the detail in our Privacy Policy.
