Target group
Our goal is to replace screen focus in early education (0-3 yrs) with safe, screen-free, interactive methods. We aim to make scientific methodologies & early multilingualism accessible, empower parents, and ensure equitable access to quality tools, fostering holistic child development for a better future.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

Elaves was created to address critical needs during the vital 0-3 age period for cognitive and language development. Key motivations include: the prevalence of screen-based solutions that carry risks for brain development (e.g., increased screen dependency, negative cognitive impacts); the lack of safe, effective, science-based learning tools specifically designed for this critical age group; and the challenges parents (especially monolingual, multilingual, or immigrant families) face in supporting their children's multilingual journey with healthy, reliable, and accessible resources. Research shows that early language acquisition and exposure to multiple languages (especially between 0-5 years) strengthen future cognitive skills (like problem-solving, creativity), academic success, and multilingual competencies. Elaves aims to unlock children's potential during this critical window using a safe, screen-free, science-based, fun, and personalized approach, while guiding families through the process and addressing inequalities in access to quality early education.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

In practice, Elaves operates as an AI-powered, screen-free, multilingual language acquisition ecosystem designed for children aged 0-3 and their parents/caregivers. It comprises two main components:

IoT-Enabled, Screen-Free Smart Toys: These toys integrate into a child's natural play habits and are designed with safety, sustainability, and developmental appropriateness in mind. Based on cognitive science and second language acquisition research, they deliver personalized auditory and phonological content (including rich content like songs and sleep sounds) tailored to the child's age, developmental stage, and individual attention mechanisms. The toys are designed to "grow" with the child, adapting to their developmental needs.

AI-Driven Mobile Parent App: This application guides parents/caregivers through their child's developmental process. It provides personalized recommendations based on the child's development and interaction with the toy (usage statistics), a content calendar and updates, expert guidance, and developmental suggestions. It directs families on tailored, progressive language journeys and allows for developmental tracking. The system continuously adapts content to optimize the child's language acquisition process. This holistic system offers a scalable solution applicable in both home and preschool environments.
