Elly's beak moves in time with every word for a lifelike, engaging chat.

A friendly bridge from home to preschool
Big changes feel smaller with a familiar friend. Elly can be a gentle companion during the move from home to preschool — a comforting, recognisable face who chats about the day, practises turn-taking and listening, and celebrates each brave step. Like taking a favourite friend to school, Elly helps little ones feel calm, confident and ready.
Familiar comfort
The same friendly Elly at home and on the way to school eases separation nerves.
School-ready play
Gentle practice with listening, turn-taking, colours, numbers and sharing feelings.
Talk about the day
Elly encourages children to share how they feel and to tell a trusted grown-up.
For kindergartens & early learning centres
Elly is a calm, screen-light helper for kindergartens, early learning centres and pre-schools. She supports listening, turn-taking and language play — with the same safe-by-design promise educators can trust.
Small-group friendly
Great for quiet corners and one-on-one time — children take turns talking with Elly, no reading required.
Safe & ad-free
Never asks for personal details, gently redirects unsafe topics, and always points to a trusted grown-up.
Educator controls
Set session length and privacy, with an always-available stop, mute and exit for staff.
Loved by little ones (and their grown-ups)
A few words from families enjoying Elly.
My 3-year-old asks for “Emu time” every afternoon. She just talks and Elly chats back — no screen full of buttons, and I don't worry about what she's seeing.
Sarah M.
Mum of one, Brisbane
The Aussie voice is gorgeous and Elly is so patient. It's helped my little bloke practise talking before he starts kindy.
James & Toby
Dad & son, Perth
I love that there are no ads and I can set the limits. It feels like a calm, safe little friend rather than a device.
