Our mission

70% of children say they don't share hard things with adults. We aim to change that by making sure every child has a voice and someone is always listening.

Every child deserves a voice

Trust Buddy is a child safety communication platform that helps children quickly and calmly reach trusted adults when they feel unsafe, uncomfortable, or overwhelmed.

We built Trust Buddy because no child should have to face a difficult moment alone. Whether something feels scary, confusing, or hard to explain, children deserve a private, trusted channel to ask for help, without fear of being in trouble.

At the same time, parents and guardians deserve clear tools to listen, respond, and stay connected, with transparency, respect, and care at every step.

You are safe here.

Trust Buddy exists to help children communicate safely, and to help the trusted adults in their lives listen, respond, and support them with confidence.

Key features

Everything families need to stay connected, communicate safely, and respond with care.

Ask For Help

A calm way for children to reach out when something feels hard, with emoji prompts and pre-written messages when words are difficult.

Help Me Explain

A gentle guided wizard that helps children find the right words. Only the final message is shared. Wizard answers stay private.

Emergency Alerts

One tap notifies every trusted adult at once. Clear, fast, and designed for moments when every second matters.

Trusted Circle

Children choose who they trust. Only the child can invite adults, and parents approve new members for children under 13.

Child Safety Resources

Age-appropriate guides, affirmations, and safety education, written in a calm, reassuring tone children can understand.

Real-time Messaging

Private conversations between children and their trusted adults. Messages stay within the circle, never with strangers.

Photo Sharing

Share photos safely within trusted conversations, with profile photos required so everyone knows who they are talking to.

Plus

Safe Zones

Create safe areas like home or school. Trusted adults receive alerts when a child enters or leaves a zone.

Continuous Location Sharing

While enabled, trusted adults can see a child's location in real time. The child always sees when sharing is active.

Plus

Geofencing

Set boundaries around important places and receive gentle alerts when your child arrives or departs.

Child-friendly Design

Soft colors, large buttons, and a calm interface designed for children ages 4–17, reassuring without being childish.

COPPA Compliance

Built with children's privacy at the center. Parental consent for under-13, no ads, and no selling of personal data.

Quick Exit

An instant safe exit that switches to a benign screen, giving children a discreet way to leave the app if needed.

How it works

A simple path from a difficult moment to the support a child needs.

  1. Step 1

    A child reaches out

    When something feels wrong, scary, or hard to explain, a child opens Trust Buddy and uses calm prompts, emoji, or guided help.

  2. Step 2

    Trusted adults are ready

    Their Trusted Circle, including parents, guardians, relatives, teachers, and coaches, are the people the child chooses to reach.

  3. Step 3

    Private communication

    Messages, help requests, and photos stay inside the circle. Children control who they invite.

  4. Step 4

    Caring support

    Trusted adults respond with care. Parents get guidance tools and crisis resources for difficult conversations.

  5. Step 5

    Safety stays in view

    Emergency alerts, location tools, and safety education work together, always with the child's awareness and consent.

Why parents choose Trust Buddy

Real benefits for real families, without the technical jargon.

Peace of mind, not panic

Trust Buddy is designed to feel calm, like a trusted friend, not an alarm system. Your family stays connected without constant worry.

Children stay in control

Only children invite trusted adults. Under-13, parents approve new members. No secret tracking. Children always know when location sharing is on.

Help when words are hard

Not every child can explain what they feel. Emoji prompts, pre-written messages, and Help Me Explain give them a voice when they need it most.

Core safety is free, forever

Emergency alerts, help requests, messaging, and safety education are always free. Plus adds advanced family tools when your family needs them.

Privacy & safety first

Built with transparency, parental control, and children's wellbeing at the center.
