Reading · every word checked
Your child can read this page.
That’s not an accident.
Before a book goes out, our code checks every word against the sounds your child has learned. If a word doesn’t fit, the book doesn’t go out.
- Nobodyknown
- toldtaught first
- Noodlenew sound: oo
- theknown
- moonnew sound: oo
- wasknown
- ticklish.taught first
A sentence from Rabbit on the Moon, one of our sample books. “Told” and “ticklish” are taught first: a grown-up reads them with your child the first time.

The whole keyboard through Grade 2
Your child never chats with an AI.
Pictures, word tiles and choices. From Grade 3, kids also type their own writing. There’s no chat box anywhere, and no AI ever writes back.
Their name stays on your device.
AI companies get a reading level and topics, never a name.
You turn on each feature.
Reading aloud, recording and name-in-stories are separate choices.
Download or delete everything.
All in one place, from Privacy & data.
Every Sunday
A short note to you, not a dashboard.
What they read, wrote and worked out, what was hard, and one thing to try together. It takes a minute to read.

- Does my child talk to an AI?
- No. Your child picks from pictures and choices. There's no chat box anywhere. AI writes and illustrates the books on our side, and our code checks every book before your child sees it.
- What happens to my child's voice recordings?
- Nothing, unless you turn recording on. If you do, the recording stays on the device. It's used only to count which words were read, it's never uploaded, and we keep only the score, for 30 days.
- Is every book new?
- No. The shelf has three books every day. Family writes 15 new books a month for your family and Family Plus writes 25. The other slots come from our library of checked books and from books worth reading again, all matched to the sounds your child knows.
- Is there math too?
- Yes, in every plan. Your child gets one math session a day, about 8 minutes for the youngest and 15 to 18 minutes in Grades 3–8. Our code makes every problem and checks every answer. No AI grades your child’s math or picks what comes next.
- What does the writing look like?
- Pre-K and K draw and tell a grown-up. Grades 1–2 build sentences from word tiles. From Grade 3 they plan, write and fix a paragraph, then short essays in Grades 6–8. Notes come from lines a person wrote, and never write a sentence for them.
- Does this replace school?
- No. It's daily practice in reading, writing and math. Reading follows the same order most programs teach sounds in, so it fits right alongside school or homeschool.
- Is this screen time?
- About ten to fifteen minutes a day, with a visible end. When the plan is done, the app says so and stops suggesting new things.
- What if a book is too hard?
- It shouldn't be: every word is checked against the sounds your child has learned before the book reaches them. If one still is, tap Report and a person looks at it.
- What's in the trial?
- 7 days, 3 books written for your child, and the whole library. Cancel before day 7 and you pay nothing.
- Will it work on our tablet?
- Yes. It runs in any modern browser, and there's an app for iPhone and iPad. Books your child has already opened keep working if the Wi-Fi drops.
Your child’s first day, tomorrow morning.
