Hebrew works end-to-end: the language follows the device (Hebrew phone → Hebrew UI, RTL), and can be forced in settings. All curated content was rewritten in Hebrew under the tone contract — not machine-translated. Interim gendered address: feminine to the parent, neutral to the child where natural (a proper address setting is a UI-phase item).
Two new modes from user-zero feedback: "Opening a topic yourself" (parent-initiated conversations — nobody asked a question) via the link under the categories, and a "where does this touch?" multi-area step after typed questions, which also helps route unknown questions to the right support.
Categories are the default entry — two taps, zero typing, to any of ~16 curated common questions across 7 life-areas, each with pre-built content (death, war, babies, money, rules, differences, homelessness). Typed or recorded questions are the long-tail path; unknown ones get an honest generic fallback that leads with the ask-back move. Voice recording and its transcript are simulated.
Device-local memory, no login: child profiles (skip the age question), the approach picks from onboarding ("which answer sounds like your home?") and the last question all live in this browser's storage — nothing online, which is the product's actual no-account architecture, not a prototype shortcut. See it in settings (top bar).
Age band and context chips genuinely change the output (ordering of interpretations, reassurance-first vs. explain-first, the "why this shape works" text, and the 2–3 / 9–12 age notes).
The sensitive-topic banner (W8) appears additively for heavy topics with distress signals — it never blocks support.
Onboarding = first use: the welcome (shown once) is one screen of contract above the question field; the why-lines in the flow are the actual tutorial. After your first completed flow, the entry becomes the returning-parent home: question field + pattern card + last question.
The "app" is a link wearing an icon: distribution is link-first (WhatsApp, QR); the install nudge (PWA add-to-home-screen) appears once, on the pattern card, only after the tool has been useful. Simulated here.
Design direction applied: מחברת (warm notebook). Warm paper, ink, and a hard visual contract: anything the parent writes sits on ruled lines in a handwriting face (Playpen Sans Hebrew); the product's suggestions are printed, pencil on smooth paper (Assistant body, Frank Ruhl Libre headings). Categories carry muted ink identities — coded, not candy. The success beat: the line under your sentence fills with ink.
Three looks, tied to your hour: paper by day, a softly dimmed page at dusk, and a notebook-by-lamplight night (dark warm desk, amber accent). Auto by default; the ☾/☀ button in the top bar switches instantly, and settings can pin light or dark.
Research log (self-testing without analytics tools): every tap is recorded on this device only — screen, target, timestamp — so you can review friction and timing after using the prototype for real. 0 events so far.
