A READING COMPANION IN DEVELOPMENT

Small steps.
Big reading adventures.

A little time to practise. A friendly companion along the way. We’re building a more enjoyable way to practise for children who find reading difficult.

ONE LITTLE STEP AT A TIME

IT STARTS WITH A LITTLE MOMENT

More chances to practise.
Fewer barriers to getting started.

Extra support isn’t always easy for families to access. Our idea: short, accessible reading adventures at home that build on what a child is already learning. With smart assistance wherever we can make it reliable.

HOW A READING ADVENTURE WORKS

From “I’ll try”
to “one more time”.

A short session. One task at a time.
And always room for a little help.

01

Read and discover

Start with a word. Then try a short sentence and discover what happens.

02

Ask for a little help

Hear a word read aloud, read together with your helper or take a break.

Help me out
03

Look back on your adventure

A question about the sentence. A look at what you tried. And a happy ending.

For having a go
READY TO COME ALONG?

FOX’S LITTLE ADVENTURE 1 / 4

No rush. Take your time.

SMART HELP. CAREFULLY DEVELOPED.

AI with
a clear purpose.

Our goal: a reading companion that selects suitable activities and helps when a child gets stuck. Built around a carefully reviewed learning sequence.

First, we need to test whether speech feedback is reliable for Dutch-speaking children in Flanders. That gives smart technology a useful role, one step at a time.

IN THE DEMO

A clear practice path

Words, a sentence, help and a look back.

IN THE PRACTICE APP

A path you choose together

Parents select suitable words and look back on practice sessions.

RESEARCH FIRST

Listening and giving feedback

Testing speech recognition with experts and families.

EVERY CHILD HAS PEOPLE AROUND THEM

A companion for children.
Insight for their helpers.

For parents

An easy start, help within reach and a clear look at what was practised.

Alongside school

We aim to use familiar letters and words, so practice at home fits what a child is learning.

With professional input

Our next step is to review the content and speech feedback with professionals. Pronunciation needs its own development track.
