Litnerd

Hi Product Hunt community, My name is Anisa and I am the CEO and Founder of Litnerd. We recently launched a new product called The Litnerd Reading Club App and I am excited to invite PH Community parents to give us a try! Our new and improved format to brings books to life! Our core mission remains the same - to help your child make daily reading a life long habit and improve their reading skills. Think of us as a book club meets e-gaming. The app is for ages 4-13. B2C DIRECT SIGNUP: Previously Litnerd was only available through schools and districts. Now Litnerd is open to parents to signup for the program directly! If you register by June 19, you can enroll your child in the Summer Reading Tournament where the top reader will win $300 cash prize! THE PROBLEM: The problem Litnerd set out to solve has always been to improve literacy rates and help kids fall in love with reading. Most kids read less than 4 minutes a day and over 42% of students fail the State ELA Reading Exam. This lack of literacy is a national crisis, contributing to the cycle of poverty. OUR IMPACT: On average Litnerd has improved kids daily reading time from less than 5 minutes to spending 30 minutes reading daily! We have also shown improvement in comprehension of up to 72% and phonics improvement of 48% in just 4 months of app usage! HOW IT WORKS: Our app has books that are turned into feature films and cartoons, original music, reading courseware to help improve reading skills. We also have a Weekly Live meetup where kids get to meet the author, an actor in the movie, a singer from one of the songs and more. They get to discuss the book in detail and answer LitQuiz questions to earn more Litcoin. Our app is unlike any other reading or book app for kids. Included in the Litnerd Reading App: Diverse ebooks for ages 4-13 - Movie and cartoon adaptations of each book (filmed in our downtown Brooklyn Studio). - Original Songs and Music to accompany each book (also available on Spotify). - Reading Courseware and mini lessons to accompany each book. - LitQuiz and Worksheets (these are pop quizzes and assignments that accompany each book and test in the areas of Phonics, Comprehension, Vocabulary and Phonemic Awareness). - Weekly Live Meetup to discuss the book your child is reading (with guest speakers, book author, actors and more). - Litcoin (our gamification and in-app currency - only earned through reading activities). - Litnerd Store (the place your child goes to redeem bitcoin. Kids can buy things like iPads, Scooters, Game Station and more). - VandRWorld Trading cards (kids can use Litcoin to purchase cards and power boosters that help them play the in-app game). - Tournaments! (Every month, students participate in a tournament for top reader of the month with past prizes including $1000 USD). $300 READING TOURNAMENT: If you would like to try Litnerd for your child, you can enroll in the upcoming Summer Tournament starting June 19! Top reader wins $300 cash prize. www.litnerd.com

I can't think of a more important topic than this for the youth of our nation. Absolutely love your mission! Curious: how are you different from Epic Reading?

This looks awesome. Congrats!
