What it is

DytectiveU provides adaptive reading and writing training for children and a screening test for risk of literacy difficulties. The maker says it does not provide medical diagnoses or replace medical diagnosis or treatment. Training adjusts exercises to a child’s performance and works across 24 cognitive skills, drawing on a library described as having more than 42,000 activities. Reports show progress and the skills covered in each session. Professional accounts add detailed progress graphs and tools for tailoring challenges to particular skills. The screening test is free, but cannot be taken on smartphones for validity reasons. Training exercises are intended for ages five and older, while screening is for ages seven and older. The maker recommends four sessions a week of about 15 minutes each. DytectiveU is available on the web, Android, and iOS. Family access costs €99, paid once for six months, with no automatic renewal; the page also states 16,5€ per month. Professional credits cost €17 a month, with a three-credit minimum. Free plans are listed for schools in Spain and therapists.
