150%! Xiaozhi Innovation Co., Ltd. completed the crowdfunding for the "Xiaozhi Book Magic Partner AI Smart Pendant".
In today's parenting scenarios, more and more families are beginning to attach importance to children's needs for expression and interaction. Recently, the new product "Xiaozhishu AI Magic Companion" under the AI children's companion brand "Xiaozhishu" concluded its crowdfunding campaign on Youpin by Xiaomi. According to official data, the sales volume of the product exceeded 10,000 yuan within 7 minutes of its launch, and it completed 50% of the crowdfunding target on the first day, ultimately exceeding the crowdfunding target with a 150% achievement rate.
As the first domestic intelligent AI product for children to be launched and successfully conclude through crowdfunding, the Xiaozhishu Magic Companion received positive market feedback during its launch phase. This achievement also reflects that parents are looking for new types of companion tools that can receive children's expressions and provide personalized interactions.
Core functions of Xiaozhishu
From voice toys to companion partners: Priority on responsiveness
The "Xiaozhishu Magic Companion" is deeply customized based on mainstream large models such as DeepSeek and Qwen. The team conducted special training on children's pronunciation characteristics, semantic ambiguity intervals, expression rhythm breakpoints, and common open - ended question scenarios, enabling the system to better understand the expression patterns of young children and build a dedicated interaction system for children's scenarios.
In actual interactions, the device will conduct multi - round conversations in combination with "Children's emotion analysis algorithm", "Interest guidance algorithm", and "Bad behavior guidance algorithm", and can generate interaction records and emotion analysis reports through a mini - program for parents' reference. The team believes that for children, the value of the interaction experience lies not only in the content of the answers, but more in whether the response is timely and whether they are truly understood.
User choices: Increasing demand for continuous interaction
Judging from the consultation during the crowdfunding phase, users' concerns during the decision - making process mainly focus on the following points:
- Whether children are willing to take the initiative to express themselves
- Whether there is still someone to respond when parents' companionship is insufficient
- Whether the interaction mode is natural and continuous
Some of the conversions come from recommendations in parent - child communities and the maternal and infant circles. The decision - making factors tend to be the product's performance in emotional support and continuous interaction, rather than the stacking of functional parameters or single - question answering speed.
As the dialogue ability of large models improves, the driving force for using intelligent children's products is gradually shifting from "content delivery" to "expression stimulation". Parents hope that the product can encourage children to speak and form an interactive relationship when communication is needed, which means that children's technology products are evolving from "learning aids" to "emotional communication participants".
Interest insight
Delivery is imminent, and the companion experience enters the verification stage
The product will simultaneously promote the expansion of interactive content and the optimization of the algorithm model during the delivery phase to improve the accuracy of recognition and response under different speaking speeds, intonations, and expression patterns. The subsequent work will focus on the following directions:
- Expand the types of interactive content (such as logical expression, behavior guidance, mild emotional intervention, etc.);
- Improve the stability and accuracy of the algorithm for children of different ages, different speaking speeds, and accents;
- Explore the long - term operation model of continuously updating interactive content and services in the companion scenario.
The team believes that the value of the product should be based on the quality of interaction and continuous usage during actual use, rather than short - term sales performance.
