One platform. Every subject. Every student.

Cantoo Scribe is an all-in-one digital learning environment built specifically for students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dysorthography, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, dysphasia, and ADHD. Rather than relying on a patchwork of separate apps, Cantoo Scribe brings together more than 30 compensation tools within a single, clean interface — from voice dictation and text-to-speech to maths tools, mind maps, and a built-in exam mode. Students can focus on learning, not on managing technology.

How it helps

For students who find reading and writing difficult, Cantoo Scribe reduces the barriers without removing the challenge. Syllable colour coding and adjustable line spacing make written text easier to process. Voice dictation and word prediction support note-taking at pace. The spell checker and reading aloud tool let students check and self-correct their own work with confidence. For students who struggle with maths, dedicated tools for operations, formulas, geometry, and column layout remove the organisational load that often blocks progress.

The interface is deliberately simple. Students can move between subjects with a single click, with notebooks reopening exactly where they left off. Automatic cloud backup means work is accessible in school, at home, and during tutoring — across Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebook, Android, and iOS.

Why it works in schools and classrooms

• Supports SEN provision without disrupting lesson flow. Students activate only the tools they need, keeping the interface uncluttered and the learning experience as close as possible to that of their peers.
• Reduces the burden on SENCOs and teachers. Cantoo Prof allows staff to adapt teaching materials remotely and assign tools to individual students, without needing to log into each student's account separately.
• Suitable for assessments and exams. The integrated exam mode — supported by the French Ministry of Education's Edu'UP programme — allows teachers to import exam papers that automatically adapt to each student's needs, with tools configured to match approved accommodations.
• Developed with healthcare professionals. Cantoo Scribe was co-designed with over 800 occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, and researchers to ensure its tools genuinely reflect the needs of students with learning differences.
• Cost-effective for whole-school deployment. Annual licences cover use across all devices, with unlimited cloud sync and technical support included — making it straightforward to budget for individual students or whole year groups.

For parents and students at home

Cantoo Scribe works just as well at home as it does in school. Students can complete homework, review notes, and practise independently — using the same tools and the same interface they use in class. Parents can see their child's work and, where needed, review papers alongside them. The software requires no technical knowledge to set up and includes tutorials to support getting started.
