Ello

Ello is an AI reading coach for children in kindergarten through third grade. Through its 'Read with Ello' app, a friendly turquoise elephant listens to kids read aloud, catches mispronounced or skipped words, and offers gentle, phonics-based coaching in real time. Built on proprietary child speech-recognition technology and a library of hundreds of decodable books, Ello aims to give every child the patient, one-on-one reading tutor that has historically been available only to families who can afford it.
