Quickly Understand Your Child’s Text Conversations With Our New AI Tool


As a parent, you want to stay connected to your child’s world—including the conversations they’re having on their Pinwheel Phone. But let’s be real: scrolling through every message isn’t always practical. That’s why we built a new tool just for you—AI Text Summary.
With one click, AI Text Summary gives you a clear, concise overview of your child’s recent text conversations. It’s the support you need to stay in the loop, without having to read every single message.
Built for Busy Parents Who Still Want to Stay Involved
You already have access to your child’s messages in the caregiver portal. But when life gets busy—and message threads get long—keeping up can feel overwhelming.
That’s where AI Text Summary comes in. It gives you the big picture fast.
Whether your child is texting about school projects, friends, or weekend plans, AI Text Summary helps you understand the tone and topics of their conversations so you can support them with confidence.
How It Works
Here’s how to use AI Text Summary in the caregiver portal:
1. Go to your child’s messages & click the “AI Text Summary” button.
2. Choose how many recent messages to summarize — 20, 50, or 100.
3. Read the summary instantly — no scrolling required.
The summary includes insights like:
- The overall tone of the conversation (friendly, excited, upset, etc.)
- Key topics discussed
- Any patterns that might need your attention
Empowering, Not Controlling
At Pinwheel, we believe tech should support parenting—not replace it. AI Text Summary isn’t about monitoring your child’s every move—it’s about helping you understand their world more efficiently so you can show up with empathy, guidance, and care.
It’s not replacing your judgment or relationship—it’s helping you focus your attention where it matters most.
Created With Pinwheel Families in Mind
Pinwheel was built to help families raise kids with healthy digital habits. And AI Text Summary is one more way we’re doing just that.
It helps you:
- Stay connected, even when life is busy
- Understand context, not just content
- Have better, more meaningful conversations with your child
Try it now in your caregiver portal—and as always, we’d love to hear what you think. Your feedback helps us keep building tools that truly support parents like you.
