Children today are growing up surrounded by screens. Tablets and smartphones have become the default tools for entertainment and even education — but the evidence is clear: excessive screen time in early childhood harms language development, attention, and sleep. We created BigiOne because we believed there had to be a better way. Parents in Turkey and around the world told us the same thing: they wanted their children to learn, explore, and be curious — but not through a screen. BigiOne was born from this gap. We designed a screen-free AI companion that speaks to children, answers their questions, tells stories, teaches vocabulary in multiple languages, and builds healthy daily routines — all through voice. No screen, no passive consumption, just active listening and learning.
A child picks up BigiOne, presses a button, and asks "Why is the sky blue?" — BigiOne responds with a simple, age-appropriate, AI-filtered answer. Later, the child listens to a story featuring their favourite licensed character. At bedtime, BigiOne plays a lullaby and softly glows as a night light. Parents control everything through a free companion app: usage hours, content filters, language settings, and sibling profiles. Physical tokens — small objects the child places on the device — unlock new features like messaging with parents or switching story characters. No menus, no touchscreens, no app stores. Just a child and their audio companion.
BigiOne launched in Turkey and has been growing through word-of-mouth among parents who are actively looking for screen-free alternatives. Our community spans social media platforms including Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook, where parents share how BigiOne fits into their children's daily routines. We have an active blog — the Ebeveyn Rehberi (Parent Guide) — that supports families with educational content around screen-free learning, language development, and child wellbeing. BigiOne is available through our e-commerce platform with nationwide shipping across Turkey, and we are actively planning international expansion.
Since launch, we have expanded the BigiOne ecosystem with physical token accessories that unlock new interaction modes — including parent-child voice messaging (ParentBuddy), peer messaging between children (BroBuddy), sibling profile switching (ProfileBuddy), and licensed story characters (StoryBuddy). We have also grown our content library with Turkish proverbs, bilingual vocabulary cards, bedtime routines, and quiz features. The companion app has been updated with content scheduling, usage tracking, and multi-child profile management.
