What they do

Problem

Kids struggle to stay engaged and improve their reading and writing skills outside of school, and learning is often not personalized.

Solution

Litnerd is a social, gamified reading-and-writing club app that co-creates original IP with kids and uses an AI tutor to personalize reading, writing, illustration, and publishing.

Who it's for

Elementary and middle-school kids who want to build reading and writing skills, along with families and schools supporting them.
