Family and kid tech built by parents

We started Kinzoo because we wanted to give our kids technology built for connection, creativity and curiosity—without risking their privacy, safety or wellbeing.

As a company, we put kids and families first.

A Different kind of technology for kids and families

Kinzoo is your alternative to Big Tech and social media. Too many tech companies see users as commodities, designing platforms to harvest data and capture attention. At Kinzoo, we do things differenly: we prioritize what’s best for kids

Kinzoo

Big Tech

A business model that serves users, not advertisers

Designed for connection, not Screen addiction

Age-appropriate features that support kid’s wellbeing

Secure platform without Strangers

Privacy policies that protect your data

Who is Kinzoo?

Our founder, Sean, is a father of two. When his young daughter wanted to explore the online world, he couldn’t find any tech companies he trusted. So, he decided to start his own. As CEO of Kinzoo, he leads a team that works hard to give kids the digital experiences they deserve.
‍
Sean's first book, "Screen Captured," debuted at number one in Amazon's parenting category.
He publishes a regular newsletter, That Digital Dad, to help parents stay up to date on digital parenting news and navigate technology with confidence.
