A child who is still learning to read at nine, twelve or fifteen does not need to be reminded of it. Letters & Devotion lets you find where they actually are, start them there, and keep the rest of their grade work moving with read-aloud turned on. Nothing is timed, so the pace is theirs.

Find the starting point first

A short placement tool in the parent area checks reading and math and suggests where to begin. It is a starting point, not a score, and your child never sees a grade on it.

A phonics course that does not rush

The catalog includes a phonics course of five units. Practice slows down when a child struggles and moves on when they have it.

Read-aloud for everything else

A parent can switch on read-aloud as a Learning Support, so a child who cannot yet read a science or history lesson can still hear it. Phonics and early reading choices are the exception, because the point there is for the child to read them.

Different levels in different subjects

Each child can have a starting point per subject, so a twelve-year-old can do sixth grade reading and seventh grade math without anyone making a fuss.

Clara explains the specific mistake

When a child misreads a word or a question, Clara explains that exact mistake kindly and lets them try again. You can read the conversation afterward.

What this is not

It is not a diagnosis. You pick supports, never a condition, and no diagnosis is stored. Supports are not a substitute for an evaluation or an IEP.
It is not a reading specialist. If you suspect something is getting in the way, see someone qualified, and use this alongside that help.
It will not hurry a child. If you need a certain reading level by a certain date, this is not a promise of that.

What grade(s)? (so their first lesson is ready)

Before your child starts: what we collect and why

We collect only what it takes to teach your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers and progress, and their chat with Clara (written by Anthropic's AI, read aloud by OpenAI). Nobody trains AI on it or sells it, and you can see or delete it any time. You create your child's account yourself. Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give consent.

Read what we collect and why

Your consent is needed before we collect anything from your child, and we collect nothing without it. You create your child's account yourself; they never sign up alone.

What we collect from your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers, time on lessons and progress, and their chat with Clara. Used to run the lessons, build their transcript and show you how they are doing.
Who else handles it: Anthropic writes Clara's replies from the chat, the lesson and your child's first name. OpenAI turns lesson text and Clara's replies into the read-aloud voice. Spoken answers are turned into text on our own server and never sent anywhere. Our email provider sends you reports. Nobody sells your child's data or uses it for anything else.
Your rights: see everything collected from your child, have it deleted, or stop further collection at any time, from your account or by emailing our support address. If you refuse the sharing above, Clara cannot teach, so the service cannot run. Chats are deleted after 30 days.
Safety: if your child writes something suggesting they may be hurt or in danger, we email you and the owner of Letters & Devotion the same day.

Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give that consent. Full details, including how long we keep each thing: Privacy Policy (version 2026-10-09).

I am this child's parent or guardian, and I agree to the above.

Free for 30 days. No card. When the free days end, lessons pause unless you choose to subscribe, $29 a month for every child in the family. Nothing is ever charged without a card.

Questions parents ask

Can a ten-year-old start at kindergarten reading?

Yes. You choose the starting level for each course, and the placement tool suggests where to begin. The child works through lessons at their own pace, and nothing labels them as behind.

Will my child hear the lessons if they cannot read yet?

Yes, if you turn on read-aloud in Learning Supports. Phonics and early reading choices are not read aloud, so the child does that part themselves.

Does the Bible lesson still happen?

Yes. It is read aloud at the table with you, so a child who cannot read the King James text yet still takes part.

What does it cost?

$29 a month or $290 a year for every child, with 30 days free and no card.
