Every video summarized

AI reads the transcript and explains what the video is about in 2-3 sentences. You'll know what your child watched without watching it yourself.

Automatic concern flags

Violence, profanity, mature themes, misinformation. Flagged with severity levels so you can focus on what actually matters.

One page with everything you need: top themes, total screen time, and a narrative summary of the day. Delivered to your inbox or available on the dashboard.

Common questions

Four answers, before you sign up.

The decision-blocking questions most parents look up first.

Pricing

How much does Beacon cost?

Free for 1 child with 100 videos/month. Pro is $14.99/month or $149/year: unlimited children, full detail, 500 videos/month, daily digests. New signups get a 7-day Pro trial.

Setup

Does it work with the apps my kid already uses?

No. Kids browse YouTube, YouTube Kids, and TikTok inside Beacon Browser (a free iOS + Android app) instead of the native apps. Once installed, watch events sync to your dashboard automatically.

Privacy

How is privacy handled?

Watch history is stored on your account and never shared. Video summaries use third-party AI services (disclosed in the privacy policy). You can delete everything at any time.

Positioning

How is this different from Bark or Qustodio?

They operate at the container level: apps, sites, time limits. Beacon operates at the content level: what's actually in each video. Today that's information; the roadmap turns it into finer-grained controls.

Understand first,
control later

Unlike parental controls that block and filter, Beacon helps you understand what your kids are actually watching.
