Chirp Partners with iOKids

Chirp partnered with Dynepic Inc. for the iOKids platform, a social gateway that enables kids’ connections into the digital world.

Chirp and iOKids will create experiences where kids can securely connect with other children within close proximity. Kids will also be able to interact with objects they encounter in their day-to-day lives, inside and outside of the classroom, under the supervision of their parent or a teacher, and without necessarily having to connect online. For example, existing iOKids partner The Children’s Museum of Lowcountry could use Chirp’s technology to let kids personalize their experience with individual exhibits from remembering the child’s previous interaction with an exhibit and jumping to that spot, providing new content to the child. 

Chirp enables the iOKids platform to connect and interact with almost anything with a speaker and microphone that a child encounters in their day to day lives, from their favorite toys and games to their favorite television shows, museums, animal parks, cool gadgets, retail stores, and more using Chirp’s data-over-sound technology. iOKids ensures that both child and parent will be notified of a connection request and the parent will also have the ability to manage their child’s connections.

Chirp’s previous launches include Activision’s Skylanders Imaginators and most the Hijinx Alive Beat Bugs toys interacting with the Beat Bugs animated series on Netflix.

Chirp will be available in the next iOKids app release planned for October.
