KidSwitch App, an EdTech startup dedicated to online safety for children aged 3-12, has announced the launch of its Kickstarter campaign. The funds generated via the crowdfunding campaign will support the development and beta release of their groundbreaking app designed to keep children safe online through features like one-tap Kid Mode, AI assistance in multiple languages, and customizable parental controls.
The KidSwitch App transforms devices into kid-friendly interfaces with just one tap, providing parents and educators with powerful tools to manage children's digital experiences. The app's AI assistant, Kami, offers real-time safety guidance in six languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Mandarin, and Arabic. Parents can create customizable settings such as "School Hours" profiles for multiple children, controlling connectivity, app access, notifications, screen time, and privacy settings.
"KidSwitch App is more than just a tool—it's a movement to ensure kids aged 3-12 can thrive in the digital world. We're thrilled to launch on Kickstarter and invite parents, educators, and EdTech investors to join us in making online safety a reality for families worldwide," said Darren Wells, founder of KidSwitch App.
The £40,000 Kickstarter goal will fund the app’s beta release on June 30, 2025, via TestFlight and Google Play Beta, with a full iOS/Android launch to follow. Stretch goals include adding Portuguese language support (£50,000) and generative AI for Kami (£90,000), expanding KidSwitch’s global reach. The company aims for 25,000 downloads and £162,500 in gross revenue in 2025, with a long-term goal of 875,000 downloads and £14,345,000 by 2029.

"As a parent of two young kids, I'm constantly worried about their online safety, but KidSwitch gives me peace of mind with its one-tap Kid Mode and AI Kami," says Emily Carter, a mother of two from London, UK. "It's a game-changer for managing screen time and ensuring they only access age-appropriate content."
The app addresses a significant market need, as 60% of US parents worry about their children's online safety, according to Pew Research 2024. KidSwitch has partnered with Dr. Monica Burns to reach educators, generating 70,000-100,000 impressions, and plans to collaborate with 150 schools globally by 2028.
