The Starting Point

Why TIMI.

Every family we teach asks the same question: how do I help my child manage time without nagging, and without another screen? Here is our answer.

Our Answer

Three problems.
Three answers.

On the left, what TIMI teaches. On the right, where it stops.

Problem 01 · Time is invisible

Put the day on the wall

To a young child, “in ten minutes” means nothing. TIMI turns the day into blocks they can see, touch and move.

Problem 02 · Routines run on reminders

Let TIMI do the reminding

When it’s time, TIMI says so gently. The child hears the calendar, not another round of nagging.

Problem 03 · Children only follow

Let children make the plan

Dragging a card, swapping the order: the child is choosing. That is executive function in practice: planning, waiting and following through.

Where it stops

No videos, no games

The screen shows the child’s own day and Time Box cards. Nothing endless, nothing designed to keep them staring.

Where it stops

No camera, no microphone

TIMI speaks, but never listens and never watches. Nothing on the wall records your home.

Where it stops

Nothing sold on the wall

Core features are free for life. TIMI Plus is optional, lives in the parent app, and is never advertised to your child.

Hardware & Software

Simple by design,
built around a child’s day.

What It Replaces

The alternative to nagging isn’t
another screen.

Chore charts, fridge magnets, phone alarms: TIMI brings them onto one wall, and hands the controls to the child.
