WHAT WE DO
SuperAwesome exists to make the internet safer for kids. Product Managers are fundamental to achieving our mission.

Kids Web Services (KWS) is a kidtech platform for developers who are creating engaging and innovative kid-led experiences. It provides out-of-the-box solutions for developers to compliantly handle kids personal data, and for them to give parents visibility and control over that data.
KWS allows our developer customers to outsource the complexity of kids data privacy, so they can get on with the job of making the most awesome game, content experience, toy or whatever they can.
For kids and parents, we provide transparency and control over how their data is used and collected. For our business, KWS connects us deeply with companies’ products and allows us to drive a huge impact with the developer community.
