Puck answers out loud in one or two sentences. There is nothing to scroll, tap or stare at.

A littlevoice. A bigworld ofquestions.
Puck is a small, round device your child holds while they ask something out loud. It answers in a sentence or two — screen free, no scroll. Just a conversation.

Why parents like it
Three small promises
Simple by design, and honest about what it can do.
The mic is live only while held
Your child presses and holds the button to ask. When they let go, the microphone stops listening.
Every question, in your app
The parent app shows every question your child asked, with the time it was asked, so you stay part of the conversation.
Child safety
A conversation, not an open door.
Puck is built for the way children actually ask questions: out loud, one at a time. The button has to be held for the microphone to be live, and it stops when they let go. There is no screen to navigate and no feed to fall into.
- The microphone is live only while the button is held
- Answers stay short: one or two sentences
- Screen free
- A parent app shows every question asked
The parent app
You can read every question.
The parent app keeps you close to the conversation without hovering over their shoulder. See what sparked their curiosity, then talk about it together at dinner.
Every question, in one place
The parent app shows every question your child asked, with the time it was asked — including the ones Puck declined to answer.
No confident guessing
When Puck does not know something, it says so, or looks it up. It does not invent an answer.
Their curiosity, over time
See what your child is actually curious about this week, then talk about it together.
Text history is opt-in: switch it on to read questions in your child’s own words. Nothing is sold, and no advertising profile is built from any of it.
What Puck is not
Honest about what Puck is not.
A small device should be clear about its limits.
Puck is not a screen with different packaging. No videos, games, rewards, streaks or infinite scroll. It will not run a lesson or mark anything.
Puck is not always right. When it does not know something, it says so, or looks it up.
Puck is not a replacement for you. It is a small companion for the questions that come up in between.
Puck is not a platform for apps, feeds or ads. It does one thing: answer a question out loud.
How it works
Four small steps, one easy conversation.
No menus for a five-year-old to get lost in.
-
Press and hold
Your child holds the one button on top of Puck. The microphone is live only while the button is held.
-
Ask out loud
They ask whatever they are wondering about, in their own words. Screen free — no menu or keyboard in the way.
-
Hear a short answer
Puck answers in one or two sentences. When it does not know something, it says so instead of guessing.
-
Read it later
Every question your child asked shows up in the parent app, so you can read it in your own time.
The device
Made to sit on the counter, not in a pocket.
A small, round companion with one pressable dome and a ring of light. The shipping product will be very close to these pilot renders.
Good questions
A few things parents ask.
Clear answers, before you join the waitlist.
Does Puck have a screen?
Screen free, completely. Answers come out of a speaker in one or two sentences and then it goes quiet. No videos, games, streaks or rewards — nothing that pulls a child back after the answer ends.
Can I see what my child asked?
Yes. The parent app shows every question your child asked, with the time it was asked — including every time Puck declined or said it did not know. Text history is opt-in: switch it on to read the questions in your child’s own words.
What is Puck not?
Not a screen with different packaging, not a private instructor, and not a replacement for you. No videos, games, rewards, streaks, apps, feeds or ads. It does one thing: answer a question out loud.
When is the microphone on?
Only while the button is held. There is no wake word and no idle microphone. Press to ask; when your child lets go, the microphone stops listening. The LED ring brightens while audio is being captured.
What happens when Puck does not know something?
It says “I don’t know.” No confident guess, invented detail or made-up number. Questions about bodies, death or violence are not answered; Puck says it is a good question for a grown-up and asks the child to talk to you.
What age is it for?
Roughly five to eighteen. Answers are shaped to the age of the child asking: one short sentence at five, a fuller explanation by eleven. Nothing scary, violent, romantic or adult, at any age.
Puck is almost ready.
