How Lantore works

Listens in only when your child chats. Tells you only when it matters.

Here is exactly what happens between a message appearing on your child's screen and an alert reaching you, and where your child's data goes at every step.

How Lantore works On your child's PC, Lantore reads chat on screen, hides names and details, and keeps tiny screenshots locally. Only redacted text is sent to the Lantore cloud, which checks it and forgets it unless something is concerning. If so, a short excerpt is saved and you get an alert with a summary and conversation guidance. You can optionally ask the PC for blurred screenshots.

Raw chat and audio stay on the PC. Only redacted text is checked in the cloud, and it is kept only if flagged.

Step by step

1. You set it up with your child

You create an account, add your child (name and birth year), choose what to monitor, set a parent PIN, install Lantore on their Windows PC, and pair it with a short one-time code. The setup takes about five minutes, and it is designed to be done together: there is a first-run notice for your child, and the Lantore icon stays visible in the system tray.

2. Lantore listens in only when your child takes part

Lantore is engagement-first. It reads chat and voice only while your child is taking part (typing in a chat or speaking in a voice session) and for a few minutes afterwards. It does not read what other players say when your child is not involved, and typing outside chat (documents, searches, passwords) is never captured.

When your child is taking part, Lantore captures the screen from the outside, finds the chat box, and reads the text on the PC itself. If you turn them on, it also reads what your child types into that chat, and can turn voice into text. Password fields and apps you exclude are never read. Lantore does not inject into, hook, or read the memory of any game.

3. Names and details are replaced before anything leaves

Still on the PC, usernames become Player 1, Player 2, and personal details like phone numbers and addresses are masked. Lantore keeps a short, encrypted buffer of tiny screenshots (about 30 minutes) on the PC only. Raw chat text and audio never leave the machine.

4. A quick automated check, then forgetting

The redacted text goes to Lantore's cloud for a fast automated check. If nothing is concerning, the text is discarded the moment the check ends. We keep only a text-free log (when, how risky, what category) for 30 days so we can show you Lantore is working.

5. If something is flagged, you get a calm alert

A closer automated review writes the title, a plain-language reason, and suggestions for starting the conversation. The short excerpt behind it is saved for up to 90 days (you can delete it sooner). Notifications say only that something needs your attention, never the chat itself.

An example alert. Moving a chat to another app is the pattern; other warning signs in the same conversation raise how urgent the alert is.

6. You can ask to see more

Screenshots from around the flagged moment can be fetched from the PC, and you can ask for more. They stay blurred until you choose to reveal them, and they are deleted after 30 days.

7. If Lantore cannot see, it says so

Anti-cheat software and some fullscreen modes can blank screen capture. When that happens Lantore reports it, so a quiet dashboard never means more than it should.

Matched to their age

What you see depends on how old they are

AgeWhat you seeWhat your child is told
Under 10The flagged conversation with surrounding contextThat Lantore is installed and why
10 to 12A summary and a short excerptWhich topics Lantore watches, and a log of alerts about them
13 to 15Urgent and some serious alerts, minimal excerptThe same, plus what is reported about them
16 to 17Urgent and emergency alerts only, minimal excerptThe same, with the strongest privacy defaults

Lantore is for children under 18. We do not offer a version for monitoring adults.

Built so that it cannot be misused quietly

  • A permanent, visible tray icon and a "what is monitored" window for your child
  • Pausing, quitting and uninstalling need the parent PIN, and the PC reports tampering to you
  • Normal Windows uninstall, no hidden processes, no antivirus evasion
  • You confirm you are a parent or guardian, and that you will tell your child

Kept deliberately small

  • No cloud copy of ordinary conversations, ever
  • Short retention windows, published on the privacy page
  • No ads, no data sales, no training on your child's chats
  • Export or delete everything from your settings at any time

Start with a calmer way to look out for them

Free during the beta. Set up takes about five minutes, and you will do it together with your child.
