The same promise everywhere

Useful before addictive.

No ad business model

Children are never the product. MakeJoy tools do not need an endless feed to succeed.

Honest labels

Released, preview, and concept work are labeled so families know what they are opening.

Small data footprint

Every app starts with the least data it can reasonably use, and local-only tools say so plainly.
