At a preschool meeting
“They rarely talk here.” “They find it hard to describe what happened.” A teacher’s comment can make you pause and listen differently.
Child speech technology
Understand your child’s responses. Decide what comes next.
KaffolTest is a language development check for children aged 36–78 months. Explore how your child understands and uses language to consider the next step.

Why we started Kaffol Labs
Understanding a child starts with their own responses.
Parents watch their children every day. Yet when an important decision comes, it can be hard to know whether those observations are enough.
That is why we look at the language children understand and express themselves. We help parents think about the conversations they can have with their child, rather than adding to their worries.
When concerns begin
A moment makes you wonder about your child’s language
Speech may seem on track, yet a familiar situation makes you wonder. These are moments parents often tell us about.
Before starting school
Listening to lessons and explaining ideas in words will become part of everyday life. You may wonder how ready your child feels.
With a math word problem
Your child can calculate but gets stuck on a written problem. Understanding the language may matter as much as the calculation.
Sharing ideas in the age of AI
Even when technology finds information for us, children still need to learn to listen, understand, and express their own ideas. Those foundations begin now.
What we build
One team for assessments and analysis technology.

Kaffol Test
A language check that starts with your concerns
Caregiver observations → language understanding → language expression, brought together in four sections: observations, understanding, expression, and ideas for home.

Kaffol AI
Understanding children’s voices better
Speech recognition trained for children’s speech is connected with age-based data and evaluation rules to support interpretation grounded in actual responses.
Early field feedback
What we learned from a small pilot
Through small recruitment rounds and consultations, we explored where parents hesitate and what they want to understand better.
Members of a local parent community
Internal survey respondents willing to pay for an education program
Time to fill 10 places in the report MVP
MVP participants who went on to a follow-up consultation
These figures come from small internal studies before launch in 2026. They are early signals from a limited sample and recruitment channels, and do not represent the overall market.
Our principles
A score alone cannot explain a child
We respect children’s responses and clearly state how far our research has progressed. Results should help people continue the conversation.
Children’s own responses
Children respond to pictures and spoken questions by tapping or speaking, rather than relying only on a guardian’s recollection.
Connecting research and technology
We bring psychometric item research and child speech technology into the same product experience.
Interpretation that helps with next steps
Respecting each child’s growth and individual differences, we provide results as a reference for conversations about learning and parenting.
No diagnosis. No ranking.
The language check does not diagnose or rank your child against other children. It provides observations from this activity to consider alongside everyday life.
Today and next steps
We distinguish what is available from what is in preparation.
