About Us
I was gifted with an amazing son, Julian, who is on the autistic spectrum. One of the things we navigate together is his intense curiosity and obsessiveness about hundreds of different topics. His favorite website was always Wikipedia, because it was the only place where he could find nit-picky details like the list of the 100 tallest buildings in the world, or the stars in Andromeda and how many light-years away they are from us.
Unfortunately, Wikipedia's language can sometimes be too technical for a child. It is also far too easy to stumble into content that is not appropriate for kids, like tragic accidents, war, and terrorism, which can cause real anxiety. We tried every children's encyclopedia we could find, both physical and digital, and none of them had the depth of content that Julian craved.
That is why I decided to build Safekipedia. I built it for him, so we could both have peace of mind and enjoy sharing the wonderful knowledge that Wikipedia offers, safely. But then I thought: why not open this to everybody? If it helps even one more parent, it would be worth it.
I poured a lot of love into this project and drew on my experience working on AI-related products, especially around safety and trust. The different reading experiences reflect the kinds of questions Julian asked between the ages of 6 and 8, which is why they are coded as J6, J7, and J8. In practice, Julian is mostly comfortable with J7 content, and J8 is probably more suitable for older children.
I hope you enjoy this website as much as we do. Keep an eye out for future improvements. This is just an initial version to understand the interest, but there are many exciting plans ahead that will depend on your support.
