We built Lestori to help our youngest learners fall in love with reading, and to support their families in helping them fulfill their potential.
Children with ADHD, autism, or dyslexia need control over pace to feel calm and process deeply. Lestori removes judgment, time pressure, and the shame barrier that blocks learning.
Lestori Screen-Free technology helps visually impaired and blind children access physical books. Because every child deserves the neurological benefits of reading.
Children can hear the story read aloud by the people they love, access translations in multiple languages, use built-in dictionary support, and engage with the book through a completely screen-free experience.
Your recorded voice means your child can have a rich, brain-building reading experience every single day — even when you can't be there. Available anytime, on any device.
Parents who aren't confident in their reading fluency get pronunciation guides, dictionaries, and translation support. Child-led pacing lets you both pause to discuss words without being rushed.
For grandparents who struggle with small print, complicated technology, or language barriers, Lestori offers an easy way to bond. Record a story and become a comforting part of your grandchild's daily routine.
Lestori is a "plug-and-play" assistant. It is reliable, requires zero technical troubleshooting, and allows for individualized instruction without extra staffing.
Set up a quiet, screen-free reading corner where every child can access their favorite books. A child just places their book on a reading station, puts on their headphones, and then Lestori will start reading to them.
Provide screen-free individualized learning at scale in individual settings or small groups. Children can read along at their own pace without being rushed because the class needs to move onto the next page. Keep children engaged without screen-based distractions.
Develop your own materials that students can independently access at home. Integrate syllabus into relevant children's literature to stimulate thinking beyond textbooks. Elevate teaching by matching the child's pace.
At Lestori, we believe that every child has a universe of potential, and it’s up to us to help them unlock it. Our pedagogy, the method and practice behind everything we build, and every school partnership we make, is rooted in these core principles:
Every child is different. Audio stops and starts instantly as your child turns pages. Their brain gets the time it needs to form images, consolidate meaning, and encode into memory. We wait for your child. There is nothing wrong with taking your time when you’re learning something new.
No child or parent should ever be made to feel ashamed for doing the best they can. At Lestori, we disagree with shaming parents or children for trying their best. Lestori’s technology is designed to remove the shame and guilt barriers to learning, especially in neurodiverse learners and their families. So every child is confident.
Privileged children often excel because they have consistent access to individualized language support through home tutors, nannies, or multilingual parents. Lestori is designed to democratize this advantage. We make high-quality, one-on-one language exposure possible for all children.
Lestori’s multi-sensory, screen-free technology is intentionally built to adapt to diverse physical and cognitive needs. Whether a child is neurodivergent, visually impaired, or simply processes information at a different speed, we ensure they have full access to the lifelong neurological benefits of reading.
There are many opinions and theories on raising children. At Lestori, we focus on a child’s neuro-development, and choose to let the research speak. We exist to help children fulfill their potential, and make their parents’ lives easier in the process. We never stop improving.
To build really effective solutions, we know we have to be great listeners. Everything is a partnership. We pay close attention, allow the ever growing science to take the lead, and keep the children at the centre of all our decision making. That’s why we work so closely with our partner schools and develop continuous feedback loops with families and educators.
Reading should never be an academic exercise. Lestori dissolves the ‘shame barrier’ that holds so many children back, creating a sanctuary where learning feels safe and non-judgmental. It is incredibly high-tech but thoughtfully built to respect children’s natural energy and pace.
