COBY’s Child-Safe Voice AI Architecture for Bedtime Routines

Listen Later

COBY’s approach to child-facing voice AI treats safety, privacy, and trust as architecture decisions. The system earns trust before prompting coping conversations, enforces pre-release safety gates through adversarial simulations and expert validation, and preserves privacy with EU-hosted inference plus parent-phone background processing. Success is measured in household outcomes: time-to-bed, evening conflicts, and homework minutes.


- Trust must be earned before coping prompts work
- Safety requires adversarial testing and expert validation before release
- Privacy-first means compute placement and EU-hosted control.
