Question 1

What is Curiosito?

Accepted Answer

Curiosito is a gamified knowledge-discovery app that shows you what you don't know yet. A radar chart makes your personal knowledge profile across 8 areas visible — and it grows with every learning step. It's not a traditional learning system, but a discovery tool for all age groups from 3 to 99.

Question 2

What age groups is Curiosito designed for?

Accepted Answer

Curiosito is designed for all age groups: Kindergarten (3-6 years) with pictures and sounds, Kids (7-12) with simple language, Teens (13-17) with challenges and leaderboards, Adults (18-59) with full depth and mental models, and Seniors (60+) with large fonts and no time pressure. The content adapts automatically to each age group.

Question 3

How much does Curiosito cost?

Accepted Answer

In the browser, Curiosito is free: you choose 3 of the 8 knowledge areas once and answer up to 10 questions per day. The choice is fixed, and your progress is always kept. The mobile apps for iOS and Android include all 8 areas and are coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.

Question 4

How does the radar chart work?

Accepted Answer

The radar chart shows your knowledge profile across 8 areas: Mathematics and Logic, Natural Sciences, History and Geography, Language and Literature, Art and Creativity, Philosophy and Ethics, Technology and Digital, and Society and Economy. The more you learn in an area, the more that section grows in the chart. At a glance, you can see where your strengths lie and where gaps remain.

Question 5

Is Curiosito GDPR-compliant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Curiosito is hosted in Germany. The AI we use to draft questions (Mistral AI) is based in France and receives no data about you. The read-aloud voices are recordings made in advance and stored on our servers. The page “How Curiosito uses AI” has the details.

Question 6

Can children use Curiosito on their own?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Curiosito is designed so that even young children can use it independently. The Kindergarten version (3-6 years) uses pictures and sounds, so no reading is required. All content can be read aloud via text-to-speech. There's no time pressure and mistakes cost no points — every interaction gives XP and boosts motivation.

Question 7

What languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

Curiosito is currently available in German, English, French, and Spanish. The app automatically adapts the language to the age group — so children get simpler phrasing than adults.

Question 8

How does the text-to-speech feature work?

Accepted Answer

Curiosito reads all content aloud. Text-to-speech is especially important for younger age groups and can be turned on or off at any time.

Question 9

Can I learn offline?

Accepted Answer

Offline mode is part of the mobile apps for iOS and Android, which are coming soon. Loaded content is cached, and your progress syncs as soon as you are back online.

Question 10

When are the iOS and Android apps coming?

Accepted Answer

The apps are in preparation and will be available soon on the App Store and Google Play. They include all 8 knowledge areas. Your account and your progress from the browser carry over.

Question 11

Do I lose my progress if I answer something wrong?

Accepted Answer

No, never! At Curiosito, progress is never reset. You even get XP for wrong answers — because the attempt counts. This is a core principle: mistakes are part of learning and are rewarded, not punished. There's also a "Make it easier" button on every question if it's too hard.
