What's the best AI tutor for kids and quite frankly, are any of them really any better than just using chatGPT or Claude or some other tool not specifically focused on kids? Would love to hear what you've tried, liked or hated. Asking because I run a homeschooling marketplace and looking for tools for our tutors and parents to use with kids. Excited to hear your thoughts!

Hey all, I'm likely going to build the MVP of a multi-vendor marketplace (similar to Airbnb but totally different market) using a tool like Bubble.io, or one of Shopify's integrations, possible some workaround in Webflow or also considering v0. Before I dive in, I want to get all the objections on the table, a thorough breakdown of all the bad reasons I might not be thinking of (bugs, site speed, company-killing problems if we go viral). I do have a product manager and visual designer who has decades of experience using no-code tools for prototypes and working products. Thanks!

I want to put my energy into a team that's helping build tech to fact check the news, teach people about media literacy, or taking any other creative, impactful approach to help people sift through it all and become more critical thinkers. Or having an impact on media literacy overall for adults or kids.

I'm doing some research on the coding programs available for kids and have come across some pretty negative reviews of Scratch from developer parents...essentially along the lines of anything more than trivial code becomes a big mess. Or that it's good for exploration but not structured learning.

On the other hand, I know a lot of families and kids who love it. It's truly incredible that this free resource was created, persists, exists that's been enjoyed and used by so many kids around the world.

What's your opinion? Is Scratch a good tool for teaching coding to kids? Why or why not? What, if anything is a better approach/program?
