Reading & learning support for dyslexia

You read differently.
That's not something to fix.

Roshni gives dyslexic students tools built around how their minds actually process text — free from day one, with deeper, guided support when a family or school needs more.

Live demo — same paragraph, two ways

Reading doesn't have to feel like the letters are moving. With the right spacing, font and colour, words can hold still long enough to make sense. That's what Roshni does — it doesn't change what you're reading, only how it reaches you.

Bold word-starts
~1 in 10 people show signs of dyslexia — most are never formally screened at school.
Not IQ Dyslexia affects how the brain processes language, not how intelligent someone is.
Any age Support helps earlier — but a 9th grader benefits from it just as much as a 2nd grader.
A day with Roshni

What it actually looks like

Not a big transformation story — just a slightly easier version of an ordinary school day.

7 AM

A 5-minute warm-up

A short reading drill before the school bus — enough to feel ready, not enough to feel like extra homework.

11 AM

Overlay on, in class

The colour overlay and spacing settings kick in automatically on the school tablet — no re-explaining to a new substitute teacher.

7 PM

One line home

A parent gets a plain-language note — "reading confidence up this week" — instead of a spelling test score to worry about.

How it works

From first tap to real progress

01

Open any text

A textbook page, a worksheet, a story — paste it in and Roshni reads it with you.

02

Make it yours

Pick the font, spacing and overlay that makes the words hold still.

03

Practice a little, often

Five minutes a day, tracked gently — no scores, no red pen.

For families and schools

Everyone who helps can see the progress

Students learn at their own pace. Parents get a calm weekly summary. Teachers see the whole class and know who needs a hand.

🎒

Students

Short lessons, gentle streaks and reading settings that follow them everywhere.

Start with tools that just work

No sign-up hurdles, no waitlist. These are free for every student, for as long as you need them.

01

Read-aloud, at your pace

Any page becomes audio, word-by-word highlighting included. Slow it down, speed it up, replay a line.

Free
02

A screen that doesn't fight you

Adjustable font, spacing and colour overlays — the same controls you just tried above, saved to your profile.

Free
03

Type the way you think

Word prediction and gentle spelling support that explains the fix — not just autocorrects it away.

Coming soon
04

Practice in short bursts

Five-minute reading drills that adapt to what's actually tripping you up — no timed pressure, no red pen.

Free
05

A quiet place to ask

A moderated peer community for dyslexic students to ask what's normal and what's not, without judgement.

06

Works offline in class

Once loaded, core tools keep working without wifi — built for school computer labs with patchy internet.

Take a closer look

Three tools, up close

A quick walkthrough of the three tools students reach for the most — what they actually do, and why they're built the way they are.

A

Read-aloud, word by word

Tap any paragraph and Roshni reads it back, highlighting each word as it's spoken. Speed ranges from 0.6x to 1.5x, and you can tap any single word to hear it in isolation — useful for sounding out something tricky mid-sentence, without losing your place in the passage.

B

Overlay + spacing, together

Colour overlays reduce the visual "swimming" some readers experience, while wider letter and word spacing gives each character room to be recognised on its own. Roshni lets you tune both independently and saves the combination to your profile, so it's the same on a phone, a tablet, or the school computer.

C

Coming soon: word prediction that explains itself

Instead of silently autocorrecting, Roshni shows three likely words as you type and — when you pick one — a one-line note on why the original spelling didn't match ("silent 'gh', like in 'night'"). Small, but it turns every correction into a tiny lesson instead of a fix you never notice.

You're not building this alone

Dyslexia support works best when parents, teachers and students see the same picture. Roshni gives everyone a window in — without turning a child's reading into a scoreboard.

A weekly summary in plain language. Lessons finished, practice done and what's going well — no rankings, no red marks.

One thing to try at home. Each summary ends with a two-minute activity matched to the skill your child is practising.

The same picture as school. Link your child's account with their teacher so you're both looking at the same progress.

What a week looks like

Small, steady, not overwhelming

Mon

5-minute warm-up

A short reading drill before school — just enough to feel ready, not enough to feel like homework.

Wed

Overlay check-in

Roshni nudges students to confirm their current colour and spacing settings still feel right — preferences shift as reading improves.

Fri

Progress note home

Parents get a one-line trend update — no scores, just "reading confidence is up this week" or similar, plain language.

Coming soon · how it will work

Inside the AI reading companion

Not a black box — here's what the companion will do each time a Roshni+ student opens a passage.

1

It reads alongside you

As the student reads, the companion tracks pace and pauses per sentence — not to grade, just to notice where reading naturally slows down.

2

It adjusts the next sentence

If hesitation clusters around certain sound patterns, the next few sentences lean toward simpler versions of those patterns until confidence returns.

3

It hands off to a human

If the same pattern shows up for two weeks straight, that's flagged for the monthly specialist session — so the conversation with a real person is never starting from zero.

Roshni for schools

Up to 40 students for one term, at no cost. Teachers get the class dashboard, lessons they can assign in two clicks, and a printable report for parent-teacher meetings. Tell us about your school and we'll get back within two working days.

Good to know

Questions families usually ask

Does Roshni diagnose dyslexia?

No. Roshni is a support tool, not a diagnostic or medical service. If the app's patterns suggest a student may benefit from a formal evaluation, we'll say so clearly and point you to a qualified professional — we never label a child on our own. If you're unsure where to start, our free 2-minute check gives a private summary and next steps.

Is my child's data safe?

We collect only what's needed to personalise practice and never sell student data. Parents and school administrators can view or delete a child's data at any time from account settings.

Can I cancel Roshni+ anytime?

Yes — cancel from your account in two taps, no phone call needed. Your account simply reverts to the free tier, and nothing you've built (streaks, saved settings, practice history) is lost.

Does it work for regional languages, not just English?

Roshni's menus, dashboards and parent reports are available in 14 languages from the language menu at the top — including Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Gujarati, French, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. The reading lessons themselves teach English reading for now; lessons for reading in other languages are being planned. Free tools like font and overlay controls already work on any text you paste in.

Billing & accounts

Money questions, answered plainly

What happens to my data if I downgrade from Roshni+?

Nothing is deleted. Practice history, saved settings, and streaks stay exactly as they were — you just lose access to the AI companion, specialist sessions, and dashboard until you upgrade again.

Can one Roshni+ account cover more than one child?

Each Roshni+ subscription covers one student profile, since the AI companion adapts to an individual reading pattern. A family with more than one child can add extra profiles at a reduced rate — reach out through the Help page for current family pricing.

Is there a school or bulk plan?

Yes — Roshni for Schools covers a full classroom or grade at a per-student rate well below individual Roshni+ pricing, plus a shared teacher dashboard. Details are on the Empower page.

Devices & access

Where Roshni actually works

Does Roshni work on old school computers?

Yes — the core reading tools are built to run on low-spec machines and older browsers, since that's often exactly where students need them most. The AI companion needs a slightly newer browser, but gracefully falls back to standard read-aloud if it isn't supported.

Do I need an internet connection?

Only the first time you load a page. After that, core tools cache locally and keep working offline — useful for school labs with unreliable wifi.

Getting started

Set up in under two minutes

01

Create an account

Use the "Start free" button — no credit card needed for the free tier.

02

Pick your reading style

Try the font, spacing and overlay controls until text feels calm on screen.

03

Add a parent or teacher

Invite one trusted adult so progress trends are visible outside the app too.

Troubleshooting

Common fixes

Read-aloud isn't working on my school computer

Read-aloud uses the computer's built-in voice. Check the volume and that a voice is installed (Windows: Settings → Time & language → Speech). Chrome and Edge usually work best.

My overlay colour isn't saving

Overlay preferences are tied to your account, not the device. Make sure you're logged in (not browsing as a guest) before changing settings.

The dashboard isn't showing my child's progress

Progress data needs at least three practice sessions before trends appear. If it's been longer than a week with no data, check that the student and parent accounts are correctly linked.

Privacy & data

What actually happens to your data

Your account, course progress, saved lessons and settings are stored in your browser on your own device. They are not uploaded to a Roshni server, and clearing your browser data erases them.

We only receive information you choose to send: messages from the contact form, school pilot and early-access requests, dyslexia-check summaries you ask us to email, and a short note when someone signs up (name, email, account type and class — never passwords). These arrive by email through a form service (FormSubmit) and are used only to reply and support you. We never sell personal data or use it for advertising.

Children under 18 need a parent or guardian's consent to keep an account. A parent, student or school can ask us to delete anything we've received by writing to support@roshni.com — we'll confirm within 7 days.
