Delivery June 2027 - August 2027Why not sooner?

How would you like to reserve?

No card needed, and nothing is charged.

If it already works in the video, why the wait?

Because the video shows the working prototype, and in the EU a toy for children may only be sold after full testing. The tests run on finished plushes made from the production materials, which is why delivery is planned for June 2027 - August 2027.

  1. The prototype works

    The electronics and the conversation work, as the uncut video shows. The plushes you see are samples, and series production is still ahead of us.

  2. We have the finished plush tested

    Toys for children fall under the EU's strict rules, and we follow every one of them. That takes full testing, so that Lotti is safe at every level: from the chemistry of the materials through the seams, the small parts and the battery compartment to the electronics and the radio. An independent lab runs the tests on finished plushes made from the production materials, because the chemical tests are only valid on those.

  3. We make the first production run

    Once every test has passed, the first production run is made and shipping starts, planned for June 2027 - August 2027.

Why pre-order at all?

The pre-orders tell us how many plushes to make in the first production run. If you reserve one now, one from that run is set aside for you at a fixed price, and you can ask for the deposit back at any time before it ships.

How Lotti answers a child's question

A real recording of the working prototype: a child asks why the sky is blue, and Lotti answers. Uncut, thinking pause included.

Transcript

Child
Why is the sky blue?
Lotti
The sky looks blue because the air spreads blue light from the sun all around us. At sunset, the light travels through more air, so the sky can look orange, pink or red.

What you are reserving

One Playnitive Lotti: a plush toy the child talks to. They press the single button in its hand, ask a spoken question, and it answers in a child-friendly voice, tells stories and explains things. There is no screen and no camera, and every conversation is processed inside the European Union.

The plush is a one-off purchase. The AI conversation runs on a separate subscription from €5.40 a month, and every new plush includes a 7-day free trial (3 months with a pre-order) so you can start talking straight out of the box.

What every pre-order includes

On top of the plush itself, and none of it costs extra.

  • The first 3 months of conversation free

    No subscription to pay for Lotti's first 3 months, instead of the usual 7-day trial. The founder price follows.

  • Your place in the queue

    Every pre-order gets a number, in the order the deposits are paid, and the first production run ships in that order. Your number is in your confirmation email.

  • Early access to the parent app

    You are let into the parent app before it opens to everyone: set up your account, look around the parental zone and tell us what is missing, while your Lotti is still being built.

  • Price guarantee

    What you see when you order is what you pay, even if the shelf price is higher at launch.

  • Founder subscription price

    After the 3 free months, 30% off the conversation subscription for this plush, for as long as you keep it. It does not expire and it does not go up later.

  • A hand-signed thank-you card

    Signed by us, with your number on it.

  • An adoption certificate

    A printed certificate for Lotti, with your child's first name and the date. We ask for the name shortly before we ship, never at checkout.

  • A sticker set

    A sheet of Playnitive stickers in the box.

How the pre-order works

Four steps, and you can stop at any of the first three.

  1. You pay the deposit

    €14 today, through Stripe. That reserves one Lotti from the first production run and locks your price at €95.

  2. We finish and certify it

    CE certification closes and the first batch is manufactured. We write to you while it happens, including the parts that go wrong.

  3. We invoice the rest

    When your Lotti is ready to ship we send an invoice for the remaining €81. Nothing is charged automatically, and you can still walk away with the deposit back.

  4. It ships to you

    Delivery is planned for June 2027 - August 2027, anywhere in the European Union. Once it arrives you have 14 days to change your mind, as with any EU distance sale.

Pre-order terms

The whole agreement, in seven sentences. The same text goes into your confirmation email, so you keep a copy of it.

  • The deposit is €14 and it reserves one Playnitive Lotti for you.
  • The full price is €95, of which the remaining €81 is due before dispatch. Nothing is charged automatically.
  • The price is locked: you pay €95 even if the shelf price at launch is higher.
  • Expected delivery: June 2027 - August 2027. If that window moves we will write to you before it passes.
  • The deposit is refundable in full, at any time before dispatch, for any reason. Reply to your confirmation email or write to info@playnitive.com.
  • If we cannot deliver at all, the deposit is refunded in full.
  • After delivery you have 14 days to withdraw under the EU distance selling rules.

Questions about pre-ordering

What exactly am I paying today?

Nothing, if you reserve for free. If you pre-order, the €14 deposit and nothing else. It is a reservation, not the purchase: no card details are stored on our side and no further payment can be taken without you agreeing to it.

When do I pay the rest?

When your Lotti is built and ready to ship, which is planned for June 2027 - August 2027. We send an invoice for the remaining €81 and wait for you to pay it. If you decide not to, the deposit comes back.

Can I get my money back?

Yes, in full, at any time before it ships, for any reason at all. Reply to your confirmation email and we refund the deposit to the card you paid with. After delivery the usual EU 14-day withdrawal right applies on top.

What if the launch slips?

We write to you before the delivery window passes and tell you the new one, and you decide whether to wait or take the deposit back. If we cannot deliver at all, everyone is refunded in full.

Why only Lotti, and not Levi or Kobi?

The first production run is one character, so the first batch can be certified, built and shipped without splitting it three ways. Levi and Kobi follow after launch, and they are the same hardware and the same firmware in different fabric.

Is there a subscription on top of this?

Yes, for the conversation. The plush is a one-off purchase, but every conversation uses paid cloud AI services, so that side runs on a subscription: €5.40 a month for occasional conversation or €10.90 for everyday conversation, and a yearly plan gives you twelve months for the price of ten. Every new plush includes a 7-day free trial; a pre-ordered one gets its first 3 months free and then 30% off, for as long as you keep it. Stories can still be started free of charge from the phone if you decide not to subscribe.
