Revealed at CES 2025, this AI-powered tablet is packed with smart features to make learning interactive, engaging, and confidence-building for children.
Why the Thinkpal could be a game-changer for learning
Over the past few years, families and educators have faced unprecedented challenges in helping kids keep up with schoolwork while juggling our own busy schedules. With test scores in reading and math dropping in recent years along with a million and one distractions, parents often struggle to reignite their children’s passion and attention for learning.
That’s where the Thinkpal Tablet comes in. Priced at $249 ($339 including keyboard), this AI-powered educational tool is designed to guide students in the learning process without the need for side by side tutoring. The ThinkPal provides writing guidance and real-time math assistance that transforms learning into an intuitive and enjoyable experience for kids outside of the classroom.
Smart AI that supports kids’ learning
At the heart of the Thinkpal Tablet is “GeniusTutor”, a powerful AI system built on Microsoft Azure OpenAI GPT-4o. It acts like a personal tutor that helps kids with common challenging subjects.

Learning can be fun too
Another thoughtful function in the Thinkpal is an AI-powered learning buddy that kids will adore named “Thinkie”. It uses speech recognition and text-to-speech technology to chat naturally, answer questions, and encourage curiosity. It turns learning into a fun, interactive experience that keeps kids engaged and entertained.
