HeyOtto vs ChatGPT

How Otto compares to general-purpose AI tools.

3 questions answered

What makes HeyOtto different from ChatGPT for kids?

ChatGPT is built for adults with no parental oversight. HeyOtto is the safe AI for children built from the ground up as an AI chatbot for kids with real-time parent monitoring, content filters, COPPA compliance, and the ability to customize responses to match your family's values. Unlike ChatGPT for kids workarounds, HeyOtto gives parents full control while children explore safely.

Is there a kid version of ChatGPT?

ChatGPT doesn't have an official kids version. HeyOtto is the closest alternative — a kid-safe AI chat with parental controls, age-appropriate responses, and a creative studio designed for children ages 8–18. Unlike ChatGPT, parents can monitor every conversation.

Why not just use ChatGPT for kids?

ChatGPT for kids isn't really a thing -- ChatGPT has no built-in parental controls, age-appropriate filters, or child safety features. HeyOtto was purpose-built as an AI chatbot for kids with safe AI for children baked into every layer. Parents get full oversight, content is filtered in real-time, and responses are tailored to your child's age.
