Private, dyslexia-friendly spelling and literacy coaching for adults
A privacy-focused SaaS that lets users scan or photograph handwritten or typed text, identifies likely spelling and word-structure errors, and provides dyslexia-friendly explanations and short personalized exercises. It would build an error profile over time, teach phonics, morphology, and common spelling patterns, offer engaging graded reading material with text-to-speech and comprehension support, and track improvement without requiring a tutor or public feedback.
The problem
Adults with dyslexia or persistent spelling difficulties may rely on autocorrect and AI but still struggle with handwritten notes, reading comprehension, and learning the underlying structure of words. Existing spellcheckers mainly correct mistakes without explaining patterns, supporting handwriting well, or providing a private, structured path to improve fundamentals. Embarrassment can also prevent users from asking others for help.
