AI features
Kinfold uses AI to take paperwork off your plate. A person approves anything a parent sees.
What AI does
| Feature | For | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Voice capture | Teachers | Turns a spoken note into structured care logs for you to approve |
| Daily report drafts | Teachers | Drafts the day’s report and observations from logs and photos |
| Message help | Teachers, directors | Suggests calm, clear wording for incidents, behaviour notes and announcements |
| Photo tagging suggestions | Teachers | Suggests which children are in a photo, only for families who opted in |
| Ratio watch | Directors | Forecasts ratio problems and suggests staff moves (rules and forecasting, not a chatbot) |
| Compliance scan | Directors | Finds missing signatures, expired documents and incomplete files |
| Ask about my child’s day | Families | Answers questions from today’s records for your own child only |
| Director digest | Directors | A weekly summary of issues, balances and attendance trends |
| Smart import | Directors | Maps columns from other apps’ exports when you switch |
| Time-saved meter | Directors | Shows the hours your team saved each month |
What AI never does
- Send anything to a parent without a person approving it
- Use your children’s data to train AI models
- Process Canadian data outside Canada, or US data outside the US
- Recognize faces unless a parent has opted in for their child
Labels and records
Anything AI wrote is labelled. Kinfold keeps a record of who approved it.
Turning AI off
Directors can turn off any AI feature for their centre under Settings › AI. Families can opt their child out of photo tagging under Settings › Privacy.
