The missing link for children’s confidence.
Jio™ is a companion that helps children build confidence and gives them a safe outlet when they need someone to talk to beyond family.
Because confident kids will change the world.
Every child faces moments of fear: the first day of school, speaking up in class, trying something new. Bravery isn’t about never being afraid; it’s about finding the courage to move forward anyway. When kids learn to be brave early, they build confidence, resilience, and a belief in themselves that lasts a lifetime. Jio was created to nurture that spark of courage, giving children a safe, encouraging friend who reminds them they are stronger than they know.
From chat app to best bud.
Building off of Showy’s AI Mentor product, ChannelThem, where you can chat with AI versions of real and fictional characters via SMS message, Jio takes the magic of AI mentors and gives it a physical, kid-friendly form. Instead of just an app, Jio is a buddy children can hold, talk to, and trust.
An ecosystem built for confidence.
A safe, approachable companion for kids
Guidance for families and schools
Fun learning and games on iPad
Insights and support on your phone
Reminders kids can wear into the world
Inspired by a real kid’s bravery.
Jio™ is named after the Founder of Showy’s son, Jio. During his Korean Doljabi on his 1-year birthday, Jio chose the sword. In Korean tradition, this symbolizes bravery. To this day, the now 7-year old boy, beyond caring deeply about helping others and loving technology, continues to exemplify bravery on a daily basis. In addition to being the inspiration for the product, Jio is actively helping his dad evolve the platform and interact with kid-users for first-hand product feedback.
