Comfort at bedtime. Safety when it counts.
The monsters kids picture under the bed aren’t real. Break-ins, strangers, and emergencies are. Monster Detector soothes nighttime fears with a friendly radar, and gives kids a one-tap line straight to their parents when something goes wrong.
Both parent and kid install the Monster Detector app. Setup takes a few minutes, and you’ll know what every alert costs before you turn it on.
Mom or Dad downloads the app and picks how they want to be notified for Test and Help events: text, phone call, or both. You’ll see what each one costs before you choose.
The kid’s phone shows a friendly radar with two buttons: Test Alarm and Call for Help. That’s the whole interface.
The first time the kid taps Test Alarm, parents get a confirmation that the system works. After that, the Test button disappears so only the Help button remains.
For Kids
Bright colors, friendly characters, and the only two buttons a kid needs. No menus to dig through, no settings to break. Just a glowing radar that says: you’re safe.
For parents
Parents get a full dashboard to configure how alerts arrive, quiet hours, trusted contacts, and more. You’re always in charge.
Beyond bedtime
We named it Monster Detector because kids relate to it. The same two buttons cover the things that keep parents up at night.
One press of Help sends a text or places a call to every parent on the account. If the location add-on is on, you get their live location too.
Built so kids feel safe and parents never get a surprise bill.
The first tap confirms the system works and notifies parents. After that, the Test button hides, so no repeat false alarms or surprise charges.
From the parent app, Mom or Dad can bring the Test button back any time. We’ll remind you that more tests can add SMS or call charges to your bill.
The Call for Help button is always available. During setup, you’ll see what each press costs in texts or call minutes.
Upgrade the Help button to share the kid’s live location the moment it’s pressed, so a parent can reach them as fast as possible.
Parents pick their preferred notification mix during setup: SMS, automated phone call, or both.
Add a co-parent, a grandparent, or more than one kid. Everyone stays linked through the same family plan.
It’s a friendly safety app, not a literal monster scanner. Kids see a calming radar that helps them settle at bedtime, and parents get a real emergency line for the moments that matter.
Yes, it’ll be a small monthly subscription. Texts and phone calls cost us money per message, so a flat monthly plan keeps the service reliable. Final pricing comes before launch; join the waitlist to hear first.
You get the alert style you picked at setup: text, automated phone call, or both. Your kid sees a gentle confirmation that you’ve been notified. If the location add-on is on, you get their live location at the same time.
No. By default, the Test button works once: it confirms everything’s set up, then hides itself on your kid’s phone. You can re-enable it from your parent app, and we’ll remind you that more tests can add SMS or call charges.
Location tracking is an optional add-on for the Help button. When your kid presses Help, their live location is shared with you alongside the alert, so you can find them as quickly as possible.
