Is AI video generation safe for my kid?
Yes, when it is built for kids. HeyOtto filters the prompt and the result for the child's age and family values, parents can review what gets made, and there are no face uploads. See /blog/safe-ai-video-generation-for-kids.
Does it use my child's face or photos?
No. No face uploads. Kids create original characters and scenes, not real-person likeness.
