Families are struggling to stay connected as distances increase. Kindoma aims to address this through an online family communication platform that facilitates shared activities and high-quality content to enable co-play and learning remotely. The platform currently offers synchronous storytime and video chat features with book reading, as well as a book messaging feature that allows readers to record books and send them to children with feedback. After launching in private trials, Kindoma seeks to fully launch its platform in May 2013 with content and channel partners, while also recruiting design consultants and identifying publishers and investors.
