The platform, a collaboration between the police and Hong Kong Qianfan Technology, allows students to create personalized stories based on China's "holistic approach to national security." This framework, promoted by President Xi Jinping, encompasses various domains including politics, economy, ecology, and technology.

During the launch ceremony, Police Commissioner Joe Chow stated that the initiative seeks to "plant the seeds of national security in students’ hearts." The platform also features audio recordings from Chow and security chief Chris Tang, who provide explanations of Hong Kong's national security laws and related information.

This launch marks a significant step in integrating national security education into schools through innovative technology. The NSmarties platform was initially presented on National Security Education Day in April but was not fully available to the public until this recent launch.
