The talking friend

Meet Kheelu. The friend who listens first.

What talking with Kheelu sounds like.

Kheelu answers, then asks. That is how a conversation goes somewhere.

Your child

Kheelu, why is the moon following us?

Kheelu

It looks that way, doesn't it? The moon is very far away. Where are you off to?

Your child

To grandma's house!

Kheelu

Then the moon gets to meet her too.

From question to answer, in four steps.

Every conversation walks the same guarded path.

  1. Your child presses to talk.

    A conversation starts when Kheelu is invited, with a press of its button, and ends after a couple of minutes of quiet.

  2. The question travels safely.

    Speech goes to Kheelona's servers over an encrypted connection, so Kheelu can understand it and answer quickly.

  3. The feeling gets read.

    PlayOS hears more than words. Curious, Grumpy, Sad, Silly, Joy: the answer meets the mood.

  4. The right response comes back.

    Every reply follows child-safety rules set for your child's age, with Google's safety filters on top. No web browsing.

The technology behind the talking lives on the PlayOS page.

Story mode

Stories that play without WiFi.

Story mode fills Kheelu with the stories and songs you pick in the parent app, and they play even without WiFi. With WiFi on, your child can stop a story to ask Kheelu about it. New packs and seasonal sets arrive over time, and school learning modules are on the way.

  • A mother joins in

    Arha's mother asks the questions, and Kheelu answers her by name.

  • Real homes

    Children asking Kheelu their own questions, in their own languages.

  • In a parent's words

    Nikita on what changed when the toy spoke back.

  • Two languages

    Arha would rather speak English today, so the story follows her.

  • A father's view

    Siddhant's father on what play away from a screen looks like.

  • Counting out loud

    Three bricks and two more, worked out on the floor with Kheelu.

  • Learning by asking

    Kheelu asks her to explain carrom, and thanks her for the reminder.

Their own pace

School teaches the class. Kheelu teaches your child.

Nothing here is a criticism of teachers, and Kheelu does not replace anyone. It is arithmetic: one adult cannot move at thirty paces at once. Kheelu only ever has one child to keep up with.

A classroom

One lesson, thirty children.

A teacher has one hour and a whole room to carry. The lesson moves at the pace of the room, because it has to.

Kheelu

One lesson, one child.

Kheelu answers the fourth why with the same patience as the first, remembers where your child stopped, and picks up there tomorrow.

Every answer. Every day. At exactly the pace they set.

The memory that picks up where your child stopped tomorrow keeps picking up for years. First questions at 3 become stories, numbers, and bigger questions, one day at a time.

A best friend at 3. A head start for school.

One friend. A whole day of things to do.

Real conversation

Kheelu listens, answers, and asks the next question.

Stories on demand

A new story whenever your child wants one.

Lessons that feel like play

Numbers, words, and why the sky is blue. Stories your child can be quizzed on.

Songs and rhymes

The ones you grew up with, and new ones too.

Offline adventures

Story-mode stories and your paired playlist travel anywhere, no signal needed.

One toy, three modes

Talk with it. Learn with it. Play music through it.

Kheelu is not a single trick. The same friend holds a conversation, tells stories that ask questions back, and turns into the speaker for your playlist.

  • Talk about anything.

    AI mode

    Your child asks why the sky is blue, and Kheelu answers in words they already own, then asks one back. This is the mode they will use most, and the one that grows their vocabulary without anyone calling it a lesson. It runs on your home WiFi.

  • Learn inside a story.

    Story mode

    Stories and songs you pick in the parent app, and they play even without WiFi. With WiFi on, your child can stop a story to ask why, and Kheelu asks one back.

  • Play your own music.

    Bluetooth mode

    Pair a phone and Kheelu becomes the speaker in the room. Your playlist, the rhymes you grew up with, an audiobook for a long car ride.

One friend your child talks to, learns from, and dances to.

You see every conversation. You decide what Kheelu does next.

The parent app is your window into every conversation. You see what your child talked about each day, read every word, choose the languages, and pick the stories and songs Kheelu plays offline.

From the pilot

The first families are already talking.

The first thing she does after school is tell Kheelu about her day. I listen from the kitchen and learn things she forgets to tell me.

Shweta

Pilot parent

It sings the same rhymes my mother sang to me, and then it asks him questions about them. He answers before I can.

Questions parents ask.

Honest answers, in plain words. Two of them carry small print below: the languages1 and Kheelona+2.

Is Kheelu safe for my child?

Kheelu listens only when your child presses its button, cannot browse or search the internet, and follows child-safety rules on every reply. You can read every conversation in the parent app. The five checks worth applying to any AI toy, including this one, are set out in our guide to choosing one.

Does Kheelu need the internet?

Only for open conversation: AI mode runs on your home WiFi. The stories and songs you pick in the parent app work offline, and Bluetooth music needs only a paired phone. New content and updates download when you choose.

What languages does Kheelu speak?

English, Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Spanish, and French, with up to ten at launch. Kheelu switches mid-sentence, in the languages you speak at home.

What ages is Kheelu for?

Ages 3+. Kheelu meets your child where they are, and the family that follows brings learning toys for 5 and 6 year olds onward, growing right alongside.

What are the best learning toys for 3-year-olds?

Look for a toy that answers back. At 3, children learn through back-and-forth conversation: questions, stories they can interrupt, words that build on yesterday's words. Kheelu is an AI educational toy built around exactly that loop, and it grows with your child from 3 up.

Can I read the conversations?

Yes. The full log stays private to you, in the parent app.

Do you sell our data?

No. Never sold, never used to sell your child anything. That is the whole point.

What if my child breaks it?

Kheelu is built for small hands and rough days. Warranty details land closer to launch.

When will Kheelu ship?

Shipping starts 20 October 2026. Pre-orders are served first, in the order they were placed.

How much does Kheelu cost?

₹4,999 for the first 500 units, and ₹7,999 once they are gone. A refundable ₹499 reserves yours, and the ₹4,500 balance is due only when it ships.

Do I have to pay anything now?

Yes. A refundable ₹499 reserves your Kheelu and holds the ₹4,999 price. The ₹4,500 balance is due only when your Kheelu is ready to ship, and the ₹499 comes back in full if you ask before we dispatch.

Is Kheelu the same as Lumi?

Yes. Kheelu is the same toy. It was called Lumi until September 2026, when it took the name of the character who narrates this site. Nothing else changed: same product, same price, same ship date. Older listings and articles still say Lumi, and they are describing this.

What is PlayOS?

The platform Kheelu runs on. It gives each character a voice and a personality, and keeps every answer right for your child's age.

Can Kheelu play music?

Yes. Pair a phone over Bluetooth and Kheelu becomes the speaker in the room, for your playlist, rhymes, or an audiobook. That is one of its three modes, alongside conversation and Story mode stories.

Does Kheelu need a subscription?

Every Kheelu includes 6 months of Kheelona+, the stories, lessons, languages, and the parent app. Kheelu's smart features are yours for life, Kheelona+ pricing is announced soon, and nothing renews without you.

What is Kheelona+?

The content and the controls: stories, lessons, language packs, and the parent app that shows you the learning. It is included free for the first 6 months with every Kheelu.

Why pre-order now?

The price is ₹4,999 for the first 500 units and ₹7,999 once they are gone. The ₹499 you pay today is fully refundable until we ship.

Is Kheelu a good birthday gift?

It is a unique birthday gift in one specific way: it keeps changing. Kheelu learns your child's words and grows with them, so the toy at 5 is not the toy they unwrapped at 3. Reserving now holds the ₹4,999 price.

  1. Up to 10 languages at launch. Announced so far: English, Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Spanish, and French.
  2. Kheelona+: included free for 6 months with every Kheelu; pricing after that is announced soon. Kheelu's smart features are yours for life, and nothing renews without you.
