Leadership

Darius & Asa have been building mission-driven technology and online services for two decades. Dads and friends, they want to give every child the opportunity to reach their full potential.

Why we built Genie

There are real monsters on the internet, but there are also amazing lifelong friends, inspiration that shapes lives, and knowledge that took all of human history to gather. As technologists and parents, we live in the balance of wanting our kids to have every opportunity to be creative, connect with friends, learn and grow... and wanting them to be protected and kept safe. AI has unlocked another level of oversight and contextual moderation that protects kids from behavior that is dangerous but "looks" positive... i.e. Grooming and Griefing. This lets us build a supportive, kind and encouraging companion for children that helps them when they're feeling alone, sad or helpless.
