Safety rules that can't be talked around
Chalk's safety checks and website limits are fixed rules in the software. The AI can't change them, and nobody can argue it out of them.Chalk's safety rules are fixed. Nobody can talk it out of them.
When something worrying comes up
The lesson pauses, and the flag is saved for you
- Step 1
Every message is checked
Fixed rules check everything your child types or says, before the AI sees it.
- Step 2
The lesson pauses
Your child is shown where to get help, such as Childline, and 999 in an emergency.
- Step 3
The lesson is flagged
The flag is saved with the lesson. It records which safety rule matched, and it isn't a judgement made by AI.
- Step 4
The right adult can read it
For families, the flag shows in your lesson history. For schools, it goes to the staff you name.
What Chalk can't do
We'd rather you know the limits up front. Chalk's job is to bring in a trusted adult quickly. The helping is still yours.Chalk tells an adult. The adult helps.
- It isn't a monitoring service
- It can't see anything outside the lesson
- It doesn't contact anyone for you
- It won't catch every sign that a child needs help
Websites Chalk uses
A short list, and nowhere else
Chalk teaches from a short list of checked education websites, and the software stops it wandering off it. When there isn't a checked source, it writes the lesson itself and checks it against your child's syllabus, and it always tells you which.Chalk uses checked websites. If there isn't one, it writes the lesson and tells you.
Today's list

No. Chalk doesn't call or message anyone for you, and nobody at Chalk watches lessons live. If you think a child is in danger, call 999.
