goddo labs

your kid's smartest friend.

a safe ai friend your kid can just talk to. kids talk, parents get insights, and nothing is ever recorded.

why we exist.

the screen
struggle.

screens are built to keep kids hooked. there's always another video to watch, another game to play. putting them down is hard, even for adults.

kids end up spending more time scrolling than talking, thinking, or expressing what's going on in their heads. and parents are left guessing about their child's interests, worries and excitement.

that's why we created goddo. a calm, voice-first friend, built just for your child. no feeds, no videos, no infinite scroll. just talking, listening, and growing.

what goddo does.

imagination,
with a little
help from ai.

for kids

goddo is your kid's smartest little friend. a safe, playful companion they can just talk to. it isn't about rattling off facts or spitting out answers. it's about talking, listening, and connecting... the way real friendships grow. kids can talk about anything: their day, their ideas, even their worries. goddo listens and talks back like a true friend.

for parents

parents connect with goddo through the web app and see what their child is curious about. stay in the loop with insights, understand what sparks their interests, and guide their growth. no recordings, ever. setup is quick, privacy is always protected, so you can feel confident while your child makes a friend that's truly their own.

for parents.

see their
world.

your kid talks. you get a window into what they love, wonder and worry about, without hovering.

every conversation, written down for you to read. never the audio.
what they love, wonder and worry about, picked up from their chats.
a note every sunday, with a question to ask at dinner.

example family. names and chats are made up.

from real families.

🌱 our story: a letter from the founder

i built goddo for my niece. she told me she wanted a little device she could talk to. not something to type into. not something to scroll on. just something she could hold in her hand and speak to.

she said she wanted a friend she could vent to when i wasn't around. someone she could bounce her wild ideas off. someone who would listen when she was bored, or when she just wanted to say something out loud.

i couldn't always be there for her. i couldn't always pick up the phone. so i made goddo for her. a buddy that listens, talks back, and never runs out of patience.

it started with her. but as i built it, i realized it's bigger than that. every kid wants to be heard. every kid deserves a safe friend who will listen when no one else can. that's what goddo is ❤️

we really tried to make the device real. we designed it, built it, rebuilt it, and hand-delivered every unit. 12 happy families, my niece included. we were going to do a full launch. we even ran a kickstarter. to do that, we registered our company in hong kong, because indian companies can't launch on kickstarter. (true story.)

goddo v1, the first prototype: an orange pebble with one big button
v1. one button.
goddo v2 in pink, with a screen and a big button
v2. got a screen.
goddo v2 in blue, with a screen and a big button
v2. blue.

the actual prototypes. built, then rebuilt.

the pink goddo v2 held in one hand

made to be held.

but the campaign didn't reach its goal. without funding, hardware can't move forward. good hardware takes more than love.

so we did the next best thing: we put the whole experience on the web. today, your kid can talk to goddo at goddo.kids. no device needed.

the device isn't gone. it's just waiting. and goddo? goddo's never been more alive.
