AI-powered parenting is here and a16z is ready to back it

AI wants to help us drive better, write better, and diagnose diseases faster. Now imagine AI helping you be a better parent. 

Andreessen Horowitz partner Justine Moore introduced a new investment thesis for the firm on X on Thursday, endorsing “a new wave of ‘parenting co-pilots’ built with LLMs and agents.” She pointed to companies like Cradlewise, makers of an AI-powered baby monitor to detect a baby’s sleep pattern and rock the crib, and Nanit, which uses AI to process crib footage to tell if a baby is breathing. 

“Imagine an AI parenting companion that’s always in your corner – ready to answer questions or talk about how you’re feeling at any time of the day (or night),” she wrote. Apps like Soula use AI to gather data on the user and guide mothers through pregnancy and postpartum.  

“It’s early for AI x parenting,” Moore wrote. “There’s much more to do!”
