How do I see what my kid said?
Every conversation appears in your Dashboard.
Click any kid → Conversations → tap a row to read
the full transcript.
What does "flagged" mean?
Yore automatically flags conversations that touch on safety-sensitive
content — self-harm language, signs of distress, slurs, attempts to
share personal info, requests for unsafe topics. Flagged conversations
appear in a banner on your dashboard until you review and acknowledge
them. The flagging is a regex-based heuristic that errs on the side of
too many false positives — better to have you glance at a non-issue
than to miss a real one.
Will the AI ever say something bad to my kid?
Yore's characters operate under hard-coded rules they cannot break:
they will never describe explicit violence or sexual content, never
give instructions for weapons or drugs or self-harm, never claim to
love your kid or be a real friend, never agree to keep secrets from
grown-ups, and never ask for personal information. If your kid
volunteers personal info (address, phone, school name), the AI is
instructed not to echo it back, and we have a backup filter that
redacts anything that slips through. Imperfect — no system is — but
we put the tripwires in deliberately.
How long are conversations saved?
For as long as you want them. They sit in your dashboard indefinitely.
If you delete a conversation, it disappears from the dashboard
immediately and is hard-deleted from our servers within 30 days.
If you delete a kid's data wholesale (Settings → Privacy → "Delete
[kid]'s data"), same 30-day timer applies. Inactive families with
no conversations or logins for 1 year are auto-purged.
I noticed something concerning in my kid's conversation. What now?
Two paths. (1) On the conversation transcript, click ⚠ Report
this next to the specific character message that concerned
you. A human reviewer will look at the moment in context and respond
within 7 days. (2) For anything urgent or that needs human eyes
today, write to
[email protected] —
the founder reads every message. If your kid said something about
self-harm or hurting others, write to us AND consider reaching out
to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988) or the
Crisis Text Line (text HOME to 741741).

How do I add a kid?
Go to your Dashboard, click
+ Add another kid at the bottom of the kid grid.
Enter their first name and age (3–17). Yore generates a 6-digit PIN
automatically. If your kid is under 13, you'll be sent through a
one-time COPPA consent flow before they can sign in.
How does my kid actually sign in?
Two ways. (1) Open
kids.helloyore.com/your-family-code on the device
your kid will use, then they type their PIN. The URL works on any
browser — laptop, tablet, phone. (2) Or your kid can go to
kids.helloyore.com/sign-in directly and type the
family code + PIN themselves. Both end up at the same place.
What's a "family secret code"?
Three random words that uniquely identify your family — like
wren-honey-cove. We use this so your kid doesn't have
to type a long URL or remember an account name. Combined with each
kid's PIN, it's how Yore knows who's signing in.
How do I change a kid's PIN?
On the kid's profile page (Dashboard →
click their name) there's a small "Change PIN" link in the meta
line under their name. You can either generate a random new PIN
or pick a custom one. The change immediately invalidates the old
PIN and any active sign-in sessions on devices.
How do I limit which characters my kid can talk to?
Kid's profile → Settings tab → "Daily limit &
allowed characters". Uncheck any character you don't want available.
How do I limit topics?
Kid's profile → Settings tab → "Topics". Eight
categories (death, religion, modern comparisons, etc.) each with
three settings: Honest / Gentle / Skip. Or use the age-based
presets at the top: Gentle (5-7), Standard (8-10), Honest (11+).
Changes save instantly.
How do I limit how long my kid uses Yore?
Kid's profile → Settings tab → "Daily limit". Set
a per-day minute cap (default 30). When the limit is reached, the
AI politely tells your kid that's enough for today.
Privacy & data
Privacy & data
Does Yore record my kid's voice?
Voice audio passes through Deepgram (our speech-to-text vendor)
transiently — it's transcribed and immediately discarded. We do not
store voice recordings server-side. The transcribed text is what
persists in your dashboard, subject to your consent settings.
Does Yore use my kid's data to train AI?
Not by default. We have data-processing agreements with Anthropic,
Deepgram, and ElevenLabs that prohibit training on customer data.
There's a separate optional toggle in Settings → Privacy that lets
you opt in to share anonymized snippets with Yore for
quality improvement — turned off by default, you can turn it on or
off any time.
How do I delete my entire family from Yore?
Settings → Privacy → "Delete my entire family from Yore". The
deletion happens with a 90-day grace period — you can sign in
during that time and click "Restore" to undo. After 90 days, all
data is permanently erased.
How do I export my data?
Settings → Privacy → next to each kid, "Export [kid]'s data".
Returns a JSON file with all of that kid's conversations, memories,
and metadata.

Is Yore free?
Friend pilot is free. Paid signups will open later this year with a
monthly subscription — exact pricing TBD. We'll email you in advance.
I forgot my password. Help.
On the sign-in page, click "Forgot password?".
Enter your email — we'll send you a reset link within a few minutes.
Can multiple parents share one Yore account?
Today: yes — one parent account per family, you share the email and
password with your co-parent. Both of you see the same dashboard.
Multi-parent accounts (separate logins, same family data) are on
our roadmap.
