Kids are bursting with questions. Meet the perfect curiosity sidekick.

Koru's the curious little alien who gets kids thinking, talking, and wondering.

We're inviting a small group of founding families to shape Koru with us.

Field notes on small humans
Kids here love to ask "why?"
— "why is the sky blue?"
— "do dogs dream?"
Must investigate. Fascinating.
Update: a kid explained that dogs
dream about "chasing the mailman."
I have no idea what a mailman is.
Did not ask. Felt rude.

A day with Koru

Passive screen time, turned into talking time.

The car ride home from tennis lesson. The standoffs at mealtimes. The slow crawl to bedtime. Koru fits right in, no new routine.

The car ride
One red car, and now Koru's in the Pixar movie!
Before homework
He walks Koru through the math facts, and never forgets them again.
After piano
She plays her recital piece for Koru, you also get a front seat!
At mealtime
Koru is telling where the sun goes at night, and dinner gets good.

A little note after every chat. So you don't miss what they're thinking.

What we've seen so far

🐱 Field note 001
A 7-year-old talked to Koru about her cat Milo for ten minutes. Koru then wanted to meet her friend sitting next to her, both girls cracked up at this, and she handed over the phone!
— Early pilot, age 7
✈️ Field note 002
A 5-year-old spoke to Koru daily for a week. Then he started recruiting: grandparents, cousins, anyone he could get on the phone with Koru before their vacation.
— Early pilot, age 5
