​
Literrific leverages advanced technology to transform assessments into actionable insights. Our platform delivers consistent, detailed reports that maximize student potential and empower teachers to focus on what matters most—targeted, differentiated instruction.

 Literrific helps children discover their reading superpowers by showing exactly what they need to grow and succeed.

THE NEED 

Approximately 73% of Texas school districts are underfunded, with 17% facing severe funding gaps that will exceed 40% of their needs. These financial challenges often lead to budget deficits, program cuts, and staffing reductions.

While literacy assessments provide valuable data, their effectiveness in guiding curriculum and instruction varies. Summative assessments offer insights into student proficiency but may not directly inform day-to-day teaching practices. In contrast, frameworks that are designed to integrate assessment data into instructional planning offer more immediate and actionable guidance for educators. Ongoing efforts to align assessments with instructional needs are crucial for enhancing literacy outcomes. 

 WHY DID WE PICK LITERRIFIC​

Picture
Literrific was designed by both leaders in the field of literacy research and teachers who know what is needed to succeed. The development team was laser-focused on the measurable indicators of reading proficiency. Where there are many processes necessary to become a skilled reader, the team realized they must assess them each discretely to provide detailed data to tailor instruction. 

By doing so, the team set out to simplify and strengthen literacy assessment with a single, reliable source of truth.  Thus, empowering educators to make targeted, data-driven decisions that promote proficiency.

A Literrific assessment will serve as a signpost on the long journey toward mastering the critical and enjoyable skill of reading.

HOW IT WORKS 

Literrific LISTENS, ASSESSES and REPORTS 
Literrific transforms reading assessment by targeting the essential components of skilled reading. Through its phoneme detection technology, it evaluates students on word recognition accuracy, mastery of spelling patterns, decoding proficiency, and reading fluency enriched with prosody, while measuring true comprehension through retell. Errors are categorized to provide teachers with detailed, phoneme-level insights and performance summaries, accessible on each student’s dashboard. These reports support personalized literacy plans and guide instruction for the classroom as a whole, ensuring meaningful improvements in reading skills. ​
