For grown-ups

Made slowly, with care

Pebble is made by Matem Media. Here's who we are, how we use AI, and what we will never do.

Who makes Pebble

A gentle show, made slowly

Pebble the Pangolin is made by Matem Media. We make her slow on purpose: soft sounds, gentle pacing, and nothing that shouts for attention.

We write every script ourselves, and every fact is checked before it goes on screen.

How we use AI

AI-assisted, and we say so

Pebble's pictures, animation, voices and music are made with AI tools. People write the stories, choose every shot and check every fact. Every video is labelled, on screen or in its description:

"Pebble is a cartoon character, made with animation and AI tools."

  • Never asking children for photos or detailsNot on Instagram, not anywhere.
Questions parents ask
Is Pebble real?

Pebble is a cartoon pangolin, made with animation and AI tools. Real pangolins do roll into a ball when they feel scared, and that's where her pause comes from.

What ages is Pebble for?

Ages 3–7. Videos are short and slow, with simple words and British spelling.

Is the breathing a therapy?

No. The breathing and stretches are fun routines to try together, not a treatment for anything.

Where can we watch?

Free on YouTube at @PebblethePangolin, and soon in the Pebble app for iPad and iPhone.
