Built from reading together.

ReadBuddy started with my son, Neil.

Like many parents, I wanted to spend more time reading with him—not just correcting words, but asking questions, talking about the story, and helping him become a more confident reader and thinker.

But giving a child that kind of one-on-one attention every day isn’t always easy for a busy parent.

That made me wonder: could AI recreate some of the best parts of reading together?

ReadBuddy grew from that idea—a reading companion that listens, encourages, asks thoughtful questions, and helps children engage more deeply with what they read.

I’m building it so more families can have that kind of reading support, even when a parent can’t be sitting beside them every time.
