Auckland Startup Seeks Investment for Dyslexia Learning Tool
Published
An Auckland-based startup called Capiche is currently looking for new investors to help grow its business. The company has developed a digital tool specifically designed to support students with dyslexia. By providing specialized resources, the platform aims to make learning more accessible and effective for those who struggle with traditional reading and writing methods.
Since its launch, the tool has already gained significant traction within the education sector. It is currently being used by more than 1,000 individual users and is active in 75 schools across the country. This early success demonstrates a clear demand for technology that assists students with learning differences in the classroom.
Until now, Capiche has offered its services as a free resource for teachers and students. However, the company is now shifting its strategy to turn the platform into a sustainable, paid business. The founders hope that securing new financial backing will allow them to improve their technology and reach even more students throughout New Zealand.
As the startup prepares for this next phase of growth, the focus remains on improving educational outcomes for children with dyslexia. By transitioning to a paid model, the team aims to ensure the long-term future of the tool while continuing to provide valuable support to schools and families.
