Robots have never met a kid. You’re going to teach them.
Robots are coming into homes with kids in them, and almost every video they learned from shows grown-ups. Film a 20-second chore with ND GO and show them how kids actually move, reach and help.
Free on Android and iPhone. Open to Alpha School students first.
A robot doesn’t know what a kid is.
Almost every video robots learn from was filmed by grown-ups. So a robot has no idea how small kids are, how fast they move, or that a kid reaching for the same cup wants to help, not get in the way.
The robots being built right now are going to live with kids. Every clip you film shows them how a kid actually does things: from your height, with your hands, at your speed.
From your phone to a robot in four steps
- 1
Film it
A parent unlocks a chore. Point your phone at it and do the task — about 20 seconds. ND GO spots the objects and pins the task right on top of them.
- 2
Get scored
Every clip is checked for shake, light, framing and whether the whole task is in it. If a person couldn't tell what happened, a robot can't either.
- 3
Parent says yes
Clips that pass wait for your parent. Nothing leaves the house until they approve it.
- 4
A robot learns
Approved clips go to the robot team that asked for that task. The robot watches how a kid does it, and learns to work alongside one.
Four rules that keep you safe
A parent approves every clip
Your parent sets up your account, and every clip waits for their yes before it goes anywhere.
No location, ever
Not your city, not your street, not GPS from the video. A robot needs to see how a drawer opens, not where it is.
Faces stay on your phone
If a face shows up in a clip, the app throws that clip out on your device, before anything is uploaded.
Money goes to your parent
Anything a clip earns lands in your parent's account. What you collect is XP, levels and badges.
Get ND GO
Point your phone at an everyday chore — tidying up, watering a plant, loading the dishwasher — and the app turns it into a short clip that helps teach a robot how the real world works.
Launching inside Alpha School: a parent sets up the account with their @alpha.school email.
Android 1.2.5 · iOS 1.2.4 · Free
On ND GO 1.1.1 or earlier? Uninstall it before installing this one — those builds were signed with a different key, so Android will refuse to update over them. From 1.1.2 onwards it updates in place.
Kids will grow up with robots at home.
Node Data’s job is to make sure robots understand kids and can interact with them.
