The AI Screen Time Tracker
Know what's new in your kid's AI apps — before they do.
A weekly-updated list of every AI chatbot, app, and feature showing up on your kid's phone — in plain English, with a risk level and one concrete thing to do about it.
The problem
New AI features land in your kid's apps every single week — with zero warning.
Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok, random new apps — AI shows up with no explanation for parents. You don't have time to become an AI expert. You just want to know: is this thing my kid is using actually fine, or not?
That's what this is.
Every week, you get
A five-minute read that keeps you ahead of the apps.
New apps & features, live
Added to the tracker as they show up — not a static list that's stale in a month.
Plain-English explanations
What each feature actually does — no jargon, no AI-bro speak.
A simple risk level
Low, Medium, or High — so you know what actually deserves your attention.
One thing to actually do
Not a 10-step guide — just the one action that matters for that feature.
Built-in safety audit
A running section on the safety tools already inside your kid's apps — and whether you've turned them on.
One living Google Sheet
Bookmark it once. Updated weekly. Nothing new to download, ever.
To be clear, this is not

Fear-mongering — some rows just say "this one's fine, here's why"

FAQ
Questions parents actually ask.
How is this different from a one-time guide?
A PDF is outdated the week a new app feature ships. This tracker gets new rows added as AI features actually launch, so you're never working off a stale list.
Do I need to be technical to use this?
No. Every row is written in plain English on purpose — no AI jargon, just what the feature does and the one thing worth doing about it.
Where do I actually access it?
A Google Sheet link is sent to your subscriber email right after signup. Bookmark it — it updates weekly, so there's nothing new to download.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes — it's a standard Gumroad membership, so you can cancel anytime from your Gumroad library with no extra steps.
Is this going to scare me about every app my kid uses?
No — some rows just say "this one's fine, here's why." The goal is an accurate read, not a scare tactic.
You don't need to become an AI expert.
You just need the weekly five-minute version — with the risk level already figured out.
