About the Brand

About

Stickerbox represents a new category of creativity-first AI built specifically for kids. It is the first AI-powered voice-to-sticker printer designed to bring children's imaginations into the physical world. By simply speaking their ideas out loud, from “a dinosaur on a skateboard” to “a Viking ship sailing through outer space,” kids watch as their imagination instantly becomes a high-quality, color-in sticker they can customize, collect, and stick anywhere.Stickerbox also expands beyond imagination into real-life memories with Photo Print and Photobooth modes. With Photo Print, kids and families can turn their favorite moments into stickers in seconds, selecting a photo and printing it instantly. With Photobooth, Stickerbox becomes a playful creative studio: snap, print, and repeat, creating photo strips and spontaneous moments of creativity and connection.The standalone device requires no smartphone, tablet, or laptop for its core experience. Unlike passive screen-based tools or conversational AI, Stickerbox was built from the ground up with children’s safety and creative independence in mind.Stickerbox operates with minimal data collection, no cameras, only listens when given permission, and features built-in moderation filters to ensure every image is age-appropriate. Its kid-safe thermal printer produces unlimited creations with no ink, no mess, and BPA/BPS-free paper, giving parents peace of mind while empowering kids to take charge of their creativity.Launched in November 2025 by Brooklyn-based Hapiko, Stickerbox is backed by $7 million in funding from Maveron (investors behind Lovevery) and Serena Ventures (founded by Serena Williams).

Founding Story

Stickerbox was born in co-founder Bob's living room during an afternoon of play with his four-year-old son. When his son asked if he could make his own coloring sheets, Bob began generating them using popular AI tools—and quickly realized how empowering it would be if kids could create their own ideas without needing an adult in the middle. That moment sparked a bigger question: what if AI could fuel children's imagination instead of replacing it? What if technology could be a tool for creativity rather than an escape from it? From that simple afternoon experiment came Stickerbox, a first-of-its-kind creative tool that turns a child's voice into a real sticker they can color, share, and stick wherever their imagination takes them. The founders built it to give kids creative independence, hands-on, scroll-free, and full of possibility. Because when imagination meets empowerment, incredible things happen.
