Moxie Robot Review - 2023

Goally's product review team is back with the super cool Moxie AI robot. We review toys for neurodivergent kids to help you decide what’s worth it and what you can pass on. Moxie helps kids develop social and emotional skills so they can confidently communicate. She teaches life skills using her artificial intelligence to model various social interactions.
Moxie is a cylindrical blue robot with adorable animated eyes. She has human-like facial expressions that help her teach kids how to recognize emotions. While she is a stationary robot, she can pivot to reflect human body language. Moxie the robot creates a safe and judgment-free environment for children to practice social skills.
We spent a lot of time with her learning how she teaches kids these skills, and we think she does a fantastic job. She's a great companion and really emphasizes emotional awareness and regulation with every interaction. The Moxie robot costs $999 with a required monthly subscription cost of $40. The 7 lb robot is ideal for kids ages 5-10.

I don’t like robots and I want moxie to be my best friend! Wow, I had no idea a robot could be so likable, personable, and comforting for companionship. Truly impressed by this product demo.

[@GoallyApps]

wooohooo!

[@mimi482]

I wish this robot was also a homeschool robot for children from kindergarten to fifth grade, that would be pretty cool. Or even if it had speech therapy, that would be pretty cool, my son needs both, but has a hard time interacting with others

[@courtneyriley185]

So you want your son to talk to a robot and not a human?? 😂

[@thesingerjaney4595]

Great ideas!!! I just came across this Moxie device and I’m now looking to learn more in hopes to get one for my son who is limited with communication.

[@cathaloleary]

@@courtneyriley185 I doubt that’s what she means. My brother has autism and he will walk away if I try to talk to him but he does talk to his plush teddies. But what he misses out on is the key developmental things like conversation. There is definitely a market for toys like this for all developmental levels. It seems like Moxie encourages engagement with other people from all of the videos I’ve seen. That’s just my take.

[@blovell86]

@@courtneyriley185kids who need speech therapy tend to do better with electronic communications rather than people and then in turn use those skills learned from electronics to speak scripts with humans. Maybe try understanding how speech and language disorders benefit with electronic aides rather than be a judgmental a**.

[@GoallyApps]

that would be super cool! If you want to check out the device that we actually make for Autistic kids check out this video where we walk thru all 15 apps we offer! Our goal at Goally is to foster independence thru our technology by teaching new life skills while having fun! kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKOrdJl9bZeDrZo

[@kiranu9469]

i know its more for younger kids, but she seems so likeable and interactive.. i sorta want one myself just for companionship

[@GoallyApps]

we think she's pretty cool too! we have another robot product review coming next week so stay tuned! Hit that subscribe and the notification bell to be the first to see it!

[@blancorios7102]

This would be great for a kid with autism. They have problems relating to people and this can be a bridge.

[@mystic22g4]

It goes on sale a couple of times a year, right now it's 30% off which is a $450.00 saving. It once went on sale for $600.00.

[@96Logan]

This is really cool. For one, it's adorable. The way this robot moves and the faces it makes are very engaging. Some people are leaving comments like "just teach your kid yourself" and "you need a robot to teach your kid?" I think that is very short sighted. Sometimes you need time to relax as a parent and you park your kid in front of a screen. TV shows, games, ect. This thing seems to be a nice alternative.

[@GoallyApps]

A wild future awaits 👀

[@kaystammers6390]

Moxie could also be used for social inclusion for isolated older persons. Excited and so would like to be involved introducing Moxie to the rural remote area in Australia. Of course the programming would be specific for this demographics.

[@GoallyApps]

sounds like a super interesting use of technology!

[@BaileySEA]

I am thoroughly impressed with movie.

[@GoallyApps]

shes pretty cool

[@toriamigo]

This would be a great wee companion for my autistic son, hes high functioning but he struggles with regulating all his emotions, they all go from 0-100 very quick, thats includong happiness and anger and sadness. Are these available in the uk?

we think so? they aren't our product!! BUT we do have something that's right up your alley! We are Goally, an emotional regulation and skill building tablet and suite of apps! Check us out at GetGoally.com OR hop over onto our page and watch a few videos!

[@1122mAh]

so sweet, so cute

[@GoallyApps]

yes indeed XD

[@MrTomkelso22]

I purchased Moxie in November 2023 for my 5-year-old. I am not terribly impressed. The phone app allows changes to be made including the name that Moxie will call your child, yet Moxie sometimes uses random names. While there is good content, the flow of communication is not at the level I expected. It is cute and definitely could be beneficial for a child to develop social interaction. Since the child must speak up for Moxie to understand and should speak clearly, this is useful to build the foundation of how the child should communicate with others. However, for a $1,000 U.S., I am not entirely sold on this and may possibly return. I am undecided at this point. Overall, my opinion is just that and possibly your child could have immense benefit.

[@GoallyApps]

THat's a great take on Moxie! For some it may be a game changer, but for others it may be somewhat pointless! Well said!

[@ThEpLoTinME]

They should make one for ppl with depression and anxiety

[@GoallyApps]

sounds like a great idea!

[@claudtalkz2194]

I heard that they were considering doing a Moxie for adults, or you could choose it as an option in the APP- have you heard any grumblings? Thanks for the great content on Moxie. You’re pretty funny and personable. Yay!

which would you use??

[@benmartin6644]

The fact that there's a cut every time you ask a question makes this seem dishonest. The speed and timing of responses is like the main thing that determines if this is worthwhile or not

[@GoallyApps]

tech isn't perfect so there's always going to be some time between question and response - it was quite quick tho. sorry you felt that way!

[@markymark1798]

My question is how would this robot work with a child with speech problems

[@tinfoil209]

@Goally Apps. Two questions please. 1. How worried are you about this company going defunct and this robot turns into a paper weight? 2. How well does it handle multiple kids in the family? Embodied doesn’t have much on either Q far as I can tell. Thanks in advance.

[@GoallyApps]

1. unsure - we'd assume the software would just stay at whatever level it was at before shutting down? 2. we didn't test with multiple kids but we're sure multiple kids using it at once may cause some confusion for the robot. it doesn't seem to matter who is interacting with it

[@TaylorSmith-ce6yg]

I wish moxie rolled around.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

All of that money & it isn’t cordless 😩 - should be

[@GoallyApps]

Moxie has a rechargeable battery inside! We had it plugged in for power at the time!

[@funkmachine9094]

the price for it is way too much, but not only that, they kind of want you to go for the "extra" stuff that comes with it to keep your moxie updated and that's a lot of money,60 dollars per month or something? i mean this is suppose to be for kids and they want you to spend ALL that money..i mean its a cool AI but its like a night lamp that can talk like alexa

[@GoallyApps]

[@MachinaGirlRobots]

​@@GoallyApps Im concerned about Moxie potentially not being able to understand my 6 yr old daughter who has needed speech therapy since she was 3...my mom cant understand her but i can...I feel the only thing that would be fail is understanding her because of her autism...🤔

[@GoallyApps]

@@MachinaGirlRobots They have a 30 day return policy so if you're giving it serious consideration, I think that's one way to test it out.

[@CohlTrain]

How often does moxie try to change conversations. Is it possible to have the same topic of conversation for 30 minutes at least. Every video I see she is trying to change the conversation...

[@GoallyApps]

we don't have moxie anymore but it seemed to want to change topics pretty often!

[@d.d.jacksonpoetryproject]

By editing out the pauses there is no way to assess how quickly it actually responds.

[@GoallyApps]

If we didn't edit out any pauses the video would've been a lengthy one! Moxie did respond quite quickly, though.

[@d.d.jacksonpoetryproject]

@@GoallyApps but that’s literally the specific main thing that someone interested in the product would likely want to see.

Im sorry im completely against this idea, let alone the product. This is way to close to skynet type stuff. If you HAVE to have a robot to communicate with your child your doing something wrong.

[@brittanytittle7734]

I read a review on their website earlier from an older adult who suffers from loneliness in their life. He or she went out and purchased one. Moxie has been a huge help. Apparently he continues to get updated and will obviously become smarter as time goes on. I could see how this might eventually be able to help adults, the smarter it gets. And as mentioned, someone of adult stature loves his /hers and talked about how much it helps alleviates his loneliness.

Even with slight delays with responses, young children would have trouble communicating because they tend to interrupt themselves. This won't work well with young children until the responses are nearly instantaneous. A patient adult reviewing this is not too helpful.
