Help kids start tasks without nagging or shutdowns
Starting is usually the hardest part. Sidekick is designed for initiation with low-friction first steps and recovery paths.
Why this keeps happening
- Initiation-focused design for routines and daily tasks.
- Progress survives imperfect days through soft streak behavior.
- Parents intervene only when signals indicate real need.
How Sidekick helps
Example: Child freezes before a routine. Sidekick proposes a single starter action and keeps progress stable even if the plan needs to shrink.
