The reward system that doesn't collapse by week two.
Kids earn Kudo Coins for the routines a parent sets, and the parent decides what the coins buy — including off-app screen time. The app carries the tracking and the payoff, so the parent stops being the single point of failure. It's free for every family in your community, and there's nothing for you to pitch or disclose.
Tasks, Coins, Games — That's the Loop
Parents set routines and tasks
Chores, reading goals, wellness habits — configured once.
Kids earn Kudo Coins
Completed tasks earn coins. Educational games earn them back.
Screen time self-regulates
Fun games cost coins. No timers, no fights — kids budget themselves.
Free plan available for families — tasks, games, wellness tools, and the parent dashboard cost nothing.
What You're Recommending
Your members cycle through sticker charts and gamified apps that die by week two, because a parent has to run every piece of it by hand. KudoKids is the same reward chart those families already reach for, running digitally — and because the free plan is the whole system, sharing it never turns into an upsell or breaks your own no-promotions rule.
A reward system that survives real life — because the app runs it, not the parent
A paper chart runs on one exhausted parent's consistency; miss three days and the whole thing dies, and the family gives up on structure entirely. KudoKids carries the tracking, the visible progress, and the immediate payoff. The parent sets the routine, kids earn Kudo Coins for finishing it, and the parent decides what the coins buy — including off-app screen time they configure. It runs on earning coins for what gets done, not on a chart that scolds.
Free for every family in your community — so cost never splits the room
Cost splits a lot of your membership — families already stretched by copays and evaluations can't add another subscription or a two-hundred-dollar device. The free Explorer plan is the whole system: the routines and tasks, the full library of games, the wellness tools — mood check-ins, meditations, and sleep sounds — the parent dashboard, and the first companion, Cosmo. Premium ($11.99/mo or $99/yr) only unlocks the other themed worlds, companions, backgrounds, and companion looks and extras; it never puts a wall in front of the reward system. Families sign up directly at kudokids.org on devices they already own.
The tool your families configure — never a fix we're selling
Your community carries a decade of scar tissue from overpromising, so honest limits up front are the price of a recommendation. KudoKids makes no clinical or outcome claims — it is not a treatment, a diagnosis tool, or an ADHD medical device, and we say so. Token systems don't fit every kid: for some demand-avoidant profiles, rewards read as demands and backfire. It's one tool for the families where a token economy already fits, the parent sets every dial, and for the kids it does fit, the parent dashboard exports a CSV of the week a parent can bring straight to their child's OT or BCBA.

Common Questions
Novelty risk is real for every app, and we don't claim immunity. What's different is where the loop points: kids earn Kudo Coins through real-world routines and spend them on rewards the parent curates — including off-app device time — not only an in-app pet. Twenty companions and a growing library of games give the earn side room to stay interesting, and because the free plan is the whole system, testing it with your own kid costs a family nothing.
KudoKids makes no clinical or outcome claims — it isn't a treatment, a diagnosis tool, or an ADHD medical device, and we say so plainly. It's the reward chart your families already use, running digitally. The one expert line we use is "Recommended by child-development experts," with no number attached. It's live in early access now, so what exists today is the free product you can vet yourself in an afternoon.
The earning happens off-screen — routines, tasks, and real-world responsibilities — and a parent can make off-app device time the very thing coins buy, on their terms. It is still an app with a growing library of games; we say that plainly and let the earn structure speak. It's built to point back at the real world, not to add more screen time to the pile.
We do, and we won't pretend otherwise. For some demand-avoidant profiles, a token system reads as pressure and can backfire. KudoKids is for the families where a token economy already fits — the parent sets every dial: which tasks, what pace, what rewards, and approval, including auto-approve to drop friction. It's one tool some families will choose, never a prescription for all, and it makes no clinical claims.
No. Community partners have no financial relationship with KudoKids — no commission, no kickback, nothing of value changes hands — so there's nothing to disclose except that there's nothing to disclose. The free plan is the offer; you share it as a resource, exactly like a printable, without breaking your own no-promotions rule.
Nothing for the whole system. The free Explorer plan includes the routines and tasks, the full library of games, the wellness tools — mood check-ins, meditations, and sleep sounds — the parent dashboard, and the first companion, Cosmo. Premium ($11.99/mo or $99/yr) only unlocks the other themed worlds, companions, backgrounds, and companion looks and extras; it never walls off the reward system. Cost never has to split your room.
