Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

KiteAI is an innovative AI-powered messaging service that gives incarcerated residents direct access to world-class artificial intelligence for answers, research, news, legal, medical research, sports, stocks, social media and more — all through the SECURUS tablet eMessage App

Any resident with access to SECURUS eMessages can use KiteAI, once a friend or family member adds them as a contact and subscribes them to the service.

KiteAI saves your loved ones' valuable time by handling all your information requests—faster, more thoroughly, and using the best AI services in the world. This means your conversations with family can focus on what matters most: personal connection and support.

Getting Started

  1. Visit www.kiteai.net and press the Get Started button
  2. Add your incarcerated loved one as a Contact using their SECURUS information
  3. Purchase a $25/month subscription for them
  4. They'll receive a welcome eMessage with instructions to get started

No! KiteAI works directly through the SECURUS tablet and the standard eMessage system. No new apps or complicated steps required.

  1. Make Sure You're Set Up: Have a friend or family member visit www.kiteai.net to click the Get Started button, add you as a Contact, and purchase your subscription.
  2. Compose Your First Request: On your SECURUS tablet, open the eMessage app and start a new message to your KiteAI Service Representative Contact. Type your question clearly, for example:
    • "List the top 10 books about living off the grid. Include publisher, author, price, ratings and summaries."
    • "Get Wikipedia article on Canada, including history, culture, and government."
    • "IMAGE: A photo of Mona Lisa having breakfast with Leonardo Da'Vinchi"
  3. Send Your eMessage: Review your request and send it as you would to any other Contact. Standard SECURUS stamps are required.
  4. Wait for Your Response: Your request will be handled by your KiteAI Service Rep and routed for processing immediately. Delivery time varies due to SECURUS and facility review process.
  5. Explore and Ask More: Try different types of requests: research, creative writing, sports stats, social media updates, images, and more!
