Company Description

At Capti, our mission is to transform literacy solutions and empower students to reach their full potential. We combine innovative literacy technology with expert professional learning to improve reading outcomes nationwide. Our flagship product, ReadBasix, is a validated foundational reading platform that quickly and reliably identifies the root causes of secondary students’ reading difficulties—including characteristics of dyslexia—and provides actionable data to guide instruction. Our experienced Literacy Team partners with educators to interpret assessment data, optimize curricula and interventions, and deliver targeted, research-based professional development.

Capti is at the forefront of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) into literacy research, leveraging these technologies to improve assessments and inform data-driven interventions.
