team@telloworld.deWhat exactly is TELLo?
TELLo is a physical AI learning companion being developed for children aged 5–12. It brings stories, guided conversations and playful learning into a little device with an expressive face.
How does storytime work?
Your child chooses a character from a curated story and reads that character’s lines. TELLo voices the other characters and helps the story unfold, turn by turn.
Does TELLo make up stories?
The story experience is built around predefined, carefully curated stories. Children take part in the adventure by choosing and reading a character’s role.
Will it work without the internet?
Our goal is an offline-first product with AI running on the device. Development prototypes may use cloud services; final connectivity and privacy details will be shared as the product develops.
What about languages and learning?
Guided language practice is part of TELLo’s concept, starting with short conversations on familiar topics. Personalised study support and the parent app are in development.
