Thoughtful apps for curious kids.

Marty Boyer + Matt Vorst

Young cartoon versions of Marty and Matt at a low craft table. Marty holds up a paper airplane while Matt, wearing a colander as a pilot helmet, laughs over the plans.

Our apps

Our apps, with room to be themselves.

Each one keeps its own name, look and website. That’s where you’ll find the details: what it does, which devices it runs on, and how it handles your data.

The idea

Built around the joy of figuring it out.

Good questions. Small discoveries. Stories worth keeping. We make learning tools that give kids something to wonder about, try out, and call their own.

Cartoon Marty cups a hand to his ear, listening for a word, beside cardboard letter tiles that spell S P E L. Matt, wearing a headband with pipe-cleaner antennae, holds up one more L.
  • Wonder first.

    Begin with something worth asking about: a big question, a tricky word, a story from their day.

  • Give it a go.

    Let trying, tinkering, and trying again feel good. The paper airplane went sideways. So we tried again.

  • Make it yours.

    Leave room for a child’s own words and discoveries: a new fact, a page saved, a word they can spell.

Our younger selves

A little silly. Always curious.

These are imagined versions of us at about nine, not drawings from childhood photos. Meet the grown-up Marty & Matt.
