About
Ms. Sonoma is the teacher.
You’re the facilitator.
Ms. Sonoma is a voice and video-enabled AI learning platform for K–8 students. Three warm AI teacher personas — Ms. Sonoma, Mrs. Webb, and Mr. Slate — conduct every guided learning session. The adult in the room sits beside the child as a calm, supportive companion. Not the teacher.
This is the core shift. The AI does the teaching. Your child won’t focus the same way when you’re the one instructing — you’re mom, or dad, or their regular tutor. Ms. Sonoma is none of those things. That difference changes everything about how a child engages with a session.
Every session follows a structured, warm, educator-designed flow. You choose what’s taught and review full transcripts and progress reports after every session. Curriculum decisions stay with you. The delivery is handled.
Why It Was Built
The Problem
Homeschool parents are exhausted. Curriculum decisions never end. Your child won’t stay focused when you’re the one teaching. You need real support — not another app that turns learning into a game.
The Solution
Ms. Sonoma handles the teaching. You choose the sessions, sit beside your child as a calm companion, and review what they learned afterward. The facilitator model means you’re always present — but never the teacher.
Meet the Three Personas
Every session is conducted by one of three warm AI teacher personas. Each has a distinct voice, teaching style, and area of strength.
Ms. Sonoma
Warm, structured, and patient. The primary voice of the platform — calm, encouraging, and consistent.
Mrs. Webb
Detail-oriented and thorough. Builds strong foundations in math and language arts through methodical, clear instruction.
Mr. Slate
Energetic and curious. Brings history, science, and social studies to life through storytelling and exploration.
How AI Works Here (and How It’s Safe)
We don’t hide the AI — we prove it’s safe. Ms. Sonoma uses six layers of content protection so sessions stay structured, on-topic, and appropriate for K–8 students.
1. Keyword Filtering
Blocks banned words before they reach the AI
2. Injection Detection
Prevents manipulation attempts from reaching the model
3. AI Moderation
OpenAI’s safety API scans all inputs before processing
4. System Instructions
Hardened rules prevent off-topic responses at the model level
5. Output Validation
Double-checks every AI response before it’s shown to the child
6. PIN Protection
Content generation and settings are locked to facilitators only
We don’t hide the AI. We prove it’s safe and show exactly how it works. Visit mssonoma.app/about for complete safety documentation.
Who It’s For
Homeschool Parents
Exhausted from doing it all. Ms. Sonoma handles the teaching while you stay present as the calm facilitator — not the instructor.
Private Tutors
A warm AI-assisted tool for consistent, structured sessions. You manage the relationship and the plan; Ms. Sonoma handles the guided instruction.
Co-ops & Enrichment Groups
Engaging, guided content that works across mixed-grade groups. Ms. Sonoma adapts to each child; you facilitate the room.
