Pinwheel helps parents guide their kids to a healthy relationship with technology.
Dane Witbeck, Pinwheel’s CEO and father of four, founded the company in 2019 after his 8-year-old son Wyatt's best friend got an iPhone. Witbeck and his team created Pinwheel’s unique operating system to support children's growth into adulthood by allowing parents to customize the phone's features.

The first Pinwheel phone sold in 2020 and has grown to serve tens of thousands of families across the country.
