What your child gets

Understand Myself

Most children are never given the vocabulary for what they are feeling, or a private place to work it out.

  • Joy Capsules

    Short moments a child collects and keeps, building a record of what actually went well.

  • Journaling

    A private space to write, with prompts for the days when nothing comes.

  • Mood Meter

    Naming a feeling rather than only having it, which is where regulating it starts.

  • Growth Tree

    A visible record of how far they have come, which matters more at nine than any number would.

Connect With Others

Children need somewhere social that is not the open internet, and not a group chat nobody is watching.

  • Joy Circles

    Small moderated groups a guardian approves, where children share with people they actually know.

  • Global Light Ritual

    A shared moment across the whole Glimmers community, so a child feels part of something larger.

Create & Experiment

Making something is how a child finds out what they are capable of, and it does not happen without space to try.

  • Joy Studio

    Open-ended making, where the point is the attempt rather than a finished piece.

  • Sketch Clash

    A light creative challenge with other children, structured so taking part is the win.

Grow With Guidance

Children will encounter AI whatever we do. Better that their first sustained experience of it is one built for them.

  • Lumiri

    The Glimmers AI companion, with age-appropriate boundaries set deliberately and explained openly. What Lumiri will and will not do is set out in the AI Use Policy.

For parents

Visibility, not surveillance

The Parent Dashboard shows you how your child is doing without handing you a transcript of their private journal. A child who knows every word is read stops writing honestly, and then the app stops being useful to either of you.

  • See engagement and growth over time, not a log of everything they typed.
  • Approve who your child connects with before they connect.
  • Manage consent, permissions and account settings in one place.
  • Safety events are surfaced to you directly rather than buried in a feed.

Safety and trust

What we do with your child's data, and what we do not

Every claim here links to the policy that backs it, rather than asking you to take our word for it.

  • Child safety by design

    Moderation, reporting and response are built into the product rather than added after something goes wrong.

    Child Safety Policy
  • Responsible AI

    What Lumiri does, where its limits are, and how we handle AI in a product used by children.

    AI Use Policy
  • Privacy for minors

    What we collect, why, how long we keep it, and what we will never do with it.

    Privacy Policy
  • Parent consent

    A guardian sets the account up and approves the child before anything else happens.

Questions

What parents ask about the app

What age is the app for?

It is built for school-age children, with the experience adjusting to the child rather than one version for everyone.

Can my child use it without me setting it up?

No. A parent or guardian creates the account and completes consent first, then invites the child. Children cannot register on their own.

Will I be able to read my child's journal?

No, and that is deliberate. You see engagement and growth, not private entries. A child who knows everything is read stops being honest, which defeats the purpose.

What does Lumiri actually do?

It is an AI companion with boundaries set for children, not a general chatbot. What it will and will not do is set out in full in the AI Use Policy.

Who can my child talk to?

Only people in Joy Circles that you have approved. There is no open messaging and no way for a stranger to reach your child.

Is the app free?
