Sersha: Interactive learning on cyberbullying, screentime, and digital citizenship. Master online safety in 20 minutes a day.
Why Sersha Was Built
The rise of social media has created incredible opportunities for connection and creativity, but it has also introduced significant challenges—especially for pre-teens and their parents. Many young people lack the skills to navigate social media safely and responsibly, while parents are left worrying about issues like cyberbullying, online privacy, and digital boundaries.
Sersha was designed and built with parents and pre-teens in mind, aiming to teach essential online safety skills in a way that is fun, interactive, and engaging. The goal was to empower pre-teens with the knowledge to thrive in the digital world while providing peace of mind for parents.
Ruth Guest, the founder of Sersha, raised funding from Enterprise Ireland and collaborated with hundreds of parents to ensure the product met real-world needs. She was a semi-finalist in the Intetrade Ireland 2023 competition, completed New Frontiers 1-3, and won Ireland’s StartApp Competition in 2024. From ideation in 2021 to product launch in 2024, Ruth worked alongside designers, developers, and international educators to bring Sersha to life. This collaborative effort resulted in a thoughtfully designed game that not only addresses the challenges of modern digital life but also provides families with a meaningful and enjoyable solution.
