Parenting with positive reinforcement

The calm, fair way to handle screen time.

KAI helps your family agree on routines and limits, then holds the line on your kid’s own phone — so you’re not the timer, the referee, and the bad guy.

A calmer house, not a longer leash.

Step one

agree. together.

You and your kid set the plan — bedtime, homework hour, how much of what. KAI, the axolotl in the app, writes it down so nobody has to remember who said what on Tuesday.

Step two

it holds the line.

The limits run on your kid’s own device, through the phone’s own controls. When the hour is up, the app closes because the plan says so — not because you sent a text.

Step three

earn it back.

Kids can pick up a task — reading, a chore, a walk — and earn extra minutes. Effort in, time out. Fair both ways, and no arguing about it.

Step four

progress you can see.

Screen time, bedtimes kept, tasks done — a clear weekly picture instead of a feed of alerts. Kids see it too, and nothing motivates like a streak.
