Thank you for taking the time to visit our Kisszu teaser page. Your work through Living Hope VC — backing founders who build with excellence, faith, and long-term impact is deeply encouraging. As a faith-driven entrepreneur and investor rooted in both purpose and execution, your vision resonates powerfully with us.

At Kisszu, everything we do is to ignite and foster children’s full potential through the power of storytelling, community, and Embodied Adaptive-AI experiences. We’re creating a new category at the intersection of media, education, and robotics.

We’re still pre-seed but already gaining traction—over 240 families have pre-ordered our first product, an animated children’s book that introduces the story of our main character and her best friend, Kisszu — our future flagship robot. Even at this scale, our business is profitable, a very important goal as a seasoned COO and Co-Founder. Behind it stands our R&D, which began in 2020 in Helsinki, focused on Embedded Adaptive-AI in consumer electronics — developing next-generation educational robotic companions that learn, move, and inspire children to explore and grow.

We recently signed Jamala — a one-in-a-generation artist and cultural icon with a global Ukrainian reach of over 30 million—as our official voice of Kisszu for the coming animated audio-book, and brand ambassador for our first focus market: Ukraine. Negotiations with additional artists in German, English, and one of the most iconic Spanish artists, who believes deeply in investing in children's education, are underway.

We meet many of Living Hope’s investment criteria: early-stage, mission-driven, with deep tech roots, market validation, a strong and seasoned faith-driven team of second- and third-time founders, and a bold, scalable vision. If this speaks to you, we’d love to schedule a call and give you a first look inside the Kisszu Universe.

Looking forward to connecting!

Dear Leen
