Toriby Apersense

Learning that begins with curiosity, not curriculum

An AI companion that perceives when children are engaged, adapts to how they think, and responds to what truly captures their attention — moment by moment.

Child engaged in learning

Understanding happens in real time

Most learning tools can’t tell when a child is drifting. We build an AI that perceives, adapts, and reconnects—moment by moment.

Perception

Tori notices when attention shifts

Through conversation and interaction patterns, the system senses curiosity, confusion, or drift—before it becomes disengagement.

Adaptation

The experience adjusts in the moment

Tori changes tone, pacing, and approach based on what it senses—asking different questions, introducing new angles, or pausing to let curiosity emerge naturally.

Connection

Learning becomes intrinsically motivating

When children feel understood and their interests are honored, they stay engaged not because they’re told to, but because they want to. That’s where real learning begins.

Our philosophy

We build technology that respects how children think, feel, and grow—not just what they should know.

Attention comes first

We don’t gamify or manipulate. We build for genuine curiosity and sustained focus—because attention is the gateway to learning.

Follow the child’s lead

Tori listens for what fascinates each child and shapes learning around their questions, not a predetermined script.

Emotion-aware interaction

Kids aren’t always confident or clear. We respond to hesitation, frustration, and excitement with pacing, warmth, and care.

Trust by design

No dark patterns. No hidden incentives. Just respectful technology built for children—and aligned with parents.

Trust & Safety

Built for children. Designed for trust.

Our goal isn’t just to teach—it’s to keep children engaged in a way that feels safe, supportive, and parent-approved.

We design for children’s digital safety with COPPA principles in mind and kid-safe practices aligned with programs like kidSAFE.

COPPA-ready by design

We build for kids with parent-first consent and privacy guardrails from day one—safety isn’t an add-on.

No data resale. Ever.

We don’t sell, rent, or share children’s data with advertisers—your family’s trust is not a growth hack.

Parent visibility & boundaries

Parents can review session summaries and adjust topic boundaries at any time—so curiosity stays safe and appropriate.

No ads, no behavioral tracking

Families pay us directly. We don’t monetize attention, clicks, or behavior—especially not children’s.

Human-first design

Built by educators, engineers, and parents

We’ve taught kids. We know attention isn’t something you can “force”—it’s something you earn. That’s why we build sessions that are curiosity-led, emotionally supportive, and safety-first.

Questions about safety or privacy? We’re happy to answer.
