AI Use
At Frontella, we use AI to help organise information and provide families with clear, practical and personalised support.
AI may be used to:
- Structure information clearly
- Summarise the child’s strengths, needs, and support information
- Signpost families to relevant services and professionals
- Suggest general support ideas based on the information provided
- Provide culturally relevant examples when appropriate
- Recommend trusted resources, books, articles, podcasts, and community support.
- Offer optional faith-based encouragement from the Qur’an or Bible, based on family preferences
AI does NOT:
- Diagnose/Identify medical or developmental conditions of the child
- Make decisions for families, schools, or professionals
- Replace parental judgement or professional advice
- Recommend medication
- Provide medical, legal, or psychological advice
- Assume a family’s culture, ethnicity, religion, or beliefs
- Replace professional assessments
- Collect information beyond what users choose to provide
- Replace human support
Safeguarding Principles
Frontella is built with safeguarding and responsibility in mind.
We believe:
- parents should remain in full control of their child’s information
- sensitive information should only be shared intentionally
- tools should reduce stress, not increase complexity
Privacy Principles
- You own your data
- You control what is shared
- You can export or delete your information
- Data is not used for unrelated purposes
Closing Statement
- Frontella is an early-stage product being developed with feedback from families who experience these challenges daily.
- The focus is on clarity, safety, and practical usefulness.
