No more passive TV time!

Geni keeps stories screen-free and engaging. Geni invites kids to focus, listen, and build with their own ideas — no screens, no recording, no overstimulation.

Learning by doing!

Inspired by Montessori and Constructionist learning, Geni empowers kids to learn by doing: exploring cause and effect, storytelling structure, and emotional understanding through tactile, creative play.

“Wanted to just let you guys know just how much Sloane genuinely loved playing Geni! ... she played with it on her own right up to lights out (forgoing all other bedtime rituals she usually insists upon).”

Mom of 7 y/o

"Where it really wins for my 5 year old preschooler is bed time. He cannot yet read and this is the perfect tool to help him fall asleep."

Mom of 5 y/o

"My kid has always been so curious and asks a million questions. Geni helped her turn all of that into real stories, and the learning is shaped by what she's already interested in. It's like her imagination grew wings"

Mom of 6 y/o

"My 7 year old ... had a friend over and they spent time together building a leprechaun trap for Saint Patrick’s day ... incorporate a good versus evil leprechaun and both my 7 year old and her friend as characters. They thought it was the coolest thing."

Mom of 7 y/o

“Putting herself into the story is really engaging. She's not zoning out. She can sit for ages listening to it."

Dad of 3 and 5 y/o

Frequently asked questions

Geni is an AI-powered storytelling toy that helps kids create their own stories through play. Children choose physical tiles like characters, objects, or emotions, and Geni transforms them into short, screen-free audio adventures.

Geni is designed for kids ages 3-8, though we've had younger and older siblings join in on the fun during playtests!

Geni needs Wi-Fi to create new stories, but once created, stories can be downloaded and played offline.

Geni is a safety-focused ai storyteller.

No Microphone: There is no listening at all. Our device only reads tile inputs, which are predesigned and cannot be altered.

Closed-loop inputs: Kids can only use tiles. There is no free-text entering the system. Chapters and plots are pre-determined and designed.

Built-in Filtering: Every sentence of every AI-generated story is reviewed by our content safety system before your child hears it. This includes automated keyword filtering and AI-based moderation tuned for child audiences.

Stories are adjustable! Parents can personalize the length in the companion app to fit your child’s needs, and stories are saved and can be replayed anytime.
