Our Story

Building the Future of
AI for Children.

Socrates AI is an Argentine technology startup founded in 2026 — standing at the intersection of education, technology, parenting, and ethics. We built Zapienz because children are already using AI, and they deserve a safe place to do it.

Purpose

Mission & Vision

Our Mission

Provide a safe and educational AI exploration tool for children ages 5 to 12. Facilitate learning and personal development through the use of artificial intelligence — without creating dependency on it.

Our Vision

Make Zapienz the leading AI for children in Latin America and worldwide, delivering innovation, safety, and control in every interaction.

The Problem We Solve

Children already use AI.
The world hasn't caught up.

Parents are left without tools. Schools are behind. And no existing application alerts a parent if their child is experiencing bullying, grooming, or emotional distress through an AI interaction — until now.

Online Risks

Children are exposed to inappropriate content and lack access to safe, age-appropriate AI tools built with their wellbeing in mind.

Lack of Control

No AI platform currently gives parents meaningful oversight of what their children are doing and asking. Parents are in the dark.

Lack of Personalization

Educational tools fail to adapt to each child's individual needs, limiting development and making learning feel generic and disconnected.

Our Philosophy

Why "Cognitive Sovereignty"?

"We are not building an app. We are designing how the next generation will coexist with artificial intelligence."

Our mission is not to teach children how to use AI. Our mission is to form children who understand AI without depending on it. Children who grow up with Zapienz will learn to be critical thinkers, creative problem-solvers, autonomous learners — and evolving humans
