    "Best of its kind"

    Posted 2022-05-12

    Pros: Allow a visual word processor. Amazing for kids who need visual support for writing. Kids on the spectrum, or kids who find the multisensory support helpful.

    Cons: Cost.
    Lack of accessibility.
    Difficult to buy.
    Lack of awareness.
    Lack of marketing.

    Overall: It is a great program. It gives kids visual feedback on the word. The ability to read it back by letter, word and have a visual to help them understand. For example blue the color vs blue the feeling.
