AngelGuard AI: Child online safety for families.Zero surveillance.
AngelGuard AI is child online safety with privacy-first monitoring for families. How can you spot risky contact before it escalates? It flags warning signs across supported platforms and sends real-time alerts to your dashboard. Each child's Privacy Dashboard shows what happened and helps you decide what to do next.

Online predators are patient. They blend in.
Grooming rarely looks alarming at first. It starts with friendship, compliments, shared interests — and gradually escalates. By the time something looks obviously wrong, significant harm may already be done.
Early contact goes unnoticed
Groomers build trust slowly over weeks or months. Standard content filters miss this entirely — they block keywords, not patterns.
Children don't always tell parents
Fear, shame, or manipulation means many children hide concerning conversations. You need an early-warning system that doesn't depend on your child speaking up.
The apps change constantly
New platforms appear every year. A child who avoids Instagram can be reached via Roblox, Discord, or the next app you've never heard of.
Gaming platforms are the new grooming frontier.
Roblox, Discord, and Steam have private messaging, friend requests, and voice chat — but no parental content filter was built with them in mind. Predators know this.
A stranger who befriends your child in a Roblox game can move to private messages within minutes. AngelGuard's background scanner checks new Roblox contacts every 10 minutes.
Discord servers often have no age verification. Unknown adults can DM any member directly. AngelGuard detects escalation patterns in Discord chat without reading message content.
Steam friend requests from strangers are common and easy to accept. AngelGuard's automated Steam scanner flags unknown new friends and unusual contact frequency.
Traditional parental controls block websites. They can't see inside a game's friend chat, a Discord server, or a Steam community. AngelGuard can — because it reads behavioural signals, not URLs.

Create a profile, connect the right device, and receive alerts when a risk needs your attention. You do not need IT experience to get started.
The bottom line: one dashboard helps you notice warning signs and decide what to do next.
Create a child profile
Add your child's first name and age range. That's all the personal information we ever ask for.
Choose a monitoring agent
Pick the agent that fits the device: Chrome Extension for desktops, Android App for phones, or iOS Configuration Profile for iPhones. All three report to the same parent dashboard.
Get real-time alerts
When a contact's behaviour crosses a risk threshold, you receive a plain-English alert with a recommended action.
Three powerful companion agents.
One unified parent dashboard.
Children switch between laptops, Android phones, and iPhones. AngelGuard follows them everywhere — with a dedicated monitoring agent for each device type, all reporting to the same dashboard.
All three agents send encrypted behavioural signals to the same parent dashboard — no matter which device your child is using.

All three agents share the same privacy guarantee
No screenshots. No keylogging. No full conversation logs. Every agent sends only behavioural signals — timing, frequency, platform, escalation patterns — to the AngelGuard server. Contact identities are hashed with SHA-256 before they ever leave the device.
Safety and privacy aren't opposites
AngelGuard was designed from the ground up to catch real danger signals without becoming a surveillance tool.
Identities hashed, not stored
Contact usernames are scrambled with SHA-256. No real names, phone numbers, or handles ever touch our database.
Pattern detection, not surveillance
On social platforms we track behavioural escalation — timing, frequency, known grooming signals — not message content. AI chatbot conversations are analysed for risk only with your explicit consent, never stored in full; at most an optional encrypted excerpt is kept for serious alerts.
Three companion agents
Chrome Extension for desktops, Android App for phones, iOS Profile for iPhones. All three report to the same dashboard — no screenshots, no keylogging, ever.
Instant Web Push alerts
Get a push notification on your phone or desktop the moment a High or Critical risk is detected — no app refresh needed.
Weekly risk digest email
Pro users receive a weekly HTML email summary of every child's alert count, new contacts, and risk trends — delivered to your inbox.
Automated friend scanner
Pro plan runs a background scan of Roblox and Steam friend lists every 10 minutes, flagging new unknown contacts automatically.
Per-child Privacy Dashboard
See exactly what's stored for each child. Audit, export, or permanently delete any data — right from the parent dashboard.
You decide exactly what we store
Unlike other parental safety tools, AngelGuard gives you a live audit dashboard for every child — so you can see, export, or delete anything at any time.
Every contact identity is hashed with SHA-256 + a unique per-child salt before it touches our database. The original name is gone forever.
If you choose to store short message snippets for context, they are encrypted with AES-256-CBC before storage. Only you can read them.
Every time your child's data is accessed, scored, or exported, a tamper-evident audit entry is written. See it all in the Privacy tab.
Your family's data. Your control.
The Privacy tab inside each child's profile shows a live count of hashed contacts, encrypted excerpts, and the exact date your data auto-purges. Export everything as JSON or delete permanently — instantly.
How we compare to Bark and Qustodio

They thought it couldn't happen to their family
"I was sceptical at first — how can you protect a child without reading everything? But after a week, AngelGuard flagged a contact pattern that genuinely scared me. It caught something I would never have noticed."
"We tried Bark for six months. It constantly flagged completely normal conversations and missed a real problem. AngelGuard's behaviour-first model is so much smarter. My daughter doesn't even know it's running."
"The Roblox scanner found a stranger who had been DMing my son for three weeks building up to asking where he goes to school. I'm grateful every day we had this running."

Your child's privacy is not a trade-off
Most safety tools spy on children. We believe children deserve privacy AND protection. AngelGuard gives parents the early warnings they need — without turning every message into evidence, and without making your child afraid to ask for help.
FAQ: Everything parents ask us
A: AngelGuard AI is a privacy-first child online safety platform. It monitors risky contact patterns across social apps and messaging platforms, alerting parents when grooming-related behaviour is detected — without storing real names, reading every message, or invasively surveilling your child.
A: For human contacts, AngelGuard uses a 4-stage grooming model (Trust Building → Boundary Testing → Isolation → Escalation) to identify known grooming behaviours: unusual contact hours, requests for secrecy, escalating personal questions, and meeting requests. For AI chatbot and companion apps, a separate 4-stage model (Casual → Attachment → Dependency → Crisis) tracks how the relationship with an AI character develops. Each contact is scored and escalated only when genuine warning signs emerge.
A: On social platforms (Instagram, Snapchat, Discord, etc.), no. AngelGuard monitors communication patterns — timing, frequency, escalation signals — not the content of individual messages. AI chatbot monitoring (Character.AI, ChatGPT and similar) works differently and only with your explicit consent: to detect how a bot behaves toward your child, those conversations are analysed automatically in real time, but full conversations are never stored and no person reads them. In both cases, if you choose to store short excerpts for review, they are encrypted with AES-256 before saving and only you can access them.
A: AngelGuard supports Instagram, Snapchat, Discord, TikTok, WhatsApp, Telegram, Roblox, Facebook, X (Twitter), Steam, and YouTube. Free accounts can monitor up to 5 platforms per child. Pro accounts get all 11+ platforms including the automated Steam and YouTube friend scanners. New platforms are added regularly.
A: The Free plan covers one child profile with up to 5 monitored platforms, AI risk scoring, push notifications, and a 90-day data history. The Pro plan ($9.99/month or $99/year) adds unlimited child profiles, all 11+ platforms, the automated background scanner that checks friend lists every 10 minutes, weekly risk digest emails, 1-year data retention, and the per-child encryption dashboard. The Family plan ($119/year) extends Pro with up to 5 child profiles and a shared family dashboard.
A: Yes. Every new account gets a 14-day Pro trial at sign-up — no credit card required. At the end of the trial, your account automatically moves to the Free plan unless you choose to upgrade.
A: Yes. Contact identities are cryptographically hashed (SHA-256) — real names, usernames, and phone numbers are never stored in plain text. You can delete any child profile at any time and all associated data is permanently removed. Data is automatically purged after 90 days.
A: Most parental control apps take a surveillance approach — logging keystrokes, reading every message, or applying blanket content filters. AngelGuard focuses on behavioural risk patterns, not content. This respects your child's developing privacy while still catching the signals that matter most.
A: After creating a child profile, choose the right companion agent for their device. For desktops or Chromebooks, install the Chrome Extension (no IT skills needed). For Android phones, build or sideload the Android companion app and grant Accessibility + Notification permissions. For iPhones or iPads, download an iOS Configuration Profile directly from the dashboard — no App Store required. All three agents connect to the same parent dashboard automatically. The whole process takes under 5 minutes.
A: You receive an alert in your parent dashboard with a plain-English description of the concern, a recommended action, and the contact's escalation stage. Alerts are tiered by severity so you can prioritise the most urgent situations first.
