Our story

A kinder kind of AI for kids.

From the founder

Why I'm building SkyBuds.

I built the toy I wish I had as a kid.

A message from our founder

Frederik FeldtFounder, SkyBuds

I started SkyBuds because I watched the screens win. Toys got passive. Apps got addictive. And the warm, talking, story-telling friends we had as kids quietly disappeared.

I wanted to build something different – an AI companion that talks with kids the way the best babysitter, teacher, or aunt would. One that's curious. Patient. Safe. And actually fun.

SkyBuds is for every parent who wants more than another flashing screen for their kid.

If you're a parent reading this, thank you for caring enough to read this far. We don't take that lightly. Every line of code, every voice, every word your kid hears from a SkyBud – we obsess over it. Because it's your kid.
