Overview

AngelQ (formerly Angel AI, then Angel Kids AI) is a kid-first internet browser and learning guide that filters and translates online content into age-appropriate results. Brian Broll, Josh Thurman, Randi Schochet, and Tim Estes founded the company in 2023 in Brentwood, Tennessee.

Rather than blocking sites outright, AngelQ dynamically filters and reframes search results, video, and research help for children roughly ages 5-12, aiming to turn screen time into supervised discovery instead of open browsing. In 2026 the company open-sourced KidRails, an LLM safety layer built with Arcee AI to keep AI chat responses age-appropriate for children, and the company states it will not sell children's data.

AngelQ suits parents who want a monitored alternative to a standard browser or tablet setup for young kids. The app gives a 7-day free trial before billing starts, with an essentials tier around $7.99 per month and a family plan near $15 per month; there is no permanent free tier.
