Description:

Ello revolutionizes the way children learn to read by combining real books with artificial intelligence technology and, in so doing, gives each child their own expert teacher. Ello uses evidence-based reading instruction to help them when they get stuck and behavioral psychology to motivate them to keep going. The company believes books are the portal to lifelong learning, and when children make a personal connection with a real book their natural, joyful curiosity flourishes.
