Kidoio assigns every children's video a developmental age band — anchored on Tier 1 evidence-based frameworks, not editorial opinion. For any title, we produce a structured scorecard across nine behavioural dimensions plus a content-maturity verdict, with timestamped on-screen evidence for every claim.
Studio ratings describe forbidden content. They do not describe what the narrative rewards, how conflicts resolve, how pacing affects cognitive engagement, or which age bands the material is genuinely appropriate for.
Nine behavioural dimensions and one maturity dimension. Every score anchored on a Tier 1 framework with strong empirical support; every claim linked to a specific observed scene.
Acknowledgement of emotions, concern for harm, apology, repair. RULER (Brackett) + Gottman.
Physical force, threats, intimidation. Cartoon and live-action distinguished. Bandura + Tremblay.
How conflicts resolve: collaboration, authority, or overpowering. Bandura + Gottman.
Dialogue, authority, force, avoidance, none. Repair attempts flagged. Gottman + Greene CPS.
What the narrative rewards — process, outcome, prosocial, aggressive. Bandura.
Pacing, repetition, narrative dependency. Brain-rot pattern flagged. Vygotsky + AAP/WHO.
Whether characters show strategies (distraction, reframing, naming) or pure willpower. Gottman.
Authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, uninvolved, or shaming. Baumrind.
Anatomical correctness, consent, forced sharing or apology framing. AAP guidance.
A separate layer tracking real violence, on-screen death, drug use, alcohol / tobacco, sexual content, graphic imagery, and other adult themes. Each tagged with intensity and minimum appropriate age.
Three steps. Same engine for a URL, an uploaded file, or a full catalog.
YouTube URL, video file, or full catalog via API. No scraping — we process YouTube URLs through first-party infrastructure.
A multimodal model watches every second. Visual and audible. Actions, reactions, reward cues, pacing, on-screen mature themes. Enumeration only — no judgement.
Rule-based scores from observed instances. Every flag links to a specific timestamp. Every rule is documented, versioned, auditable.
