How it works

SCAFFOLDING

A blank page can be daunting.

We break it into achievable steps.

A blank page can be daunting. We break it into achievable steps.

Write an essay taking a position on today’s reading. Include three well-reasoned arguments.

1. Write your topic sentence

Let’s begin your essay by stating your opinion. A strong topic sentence lets your reader know exactly where you stand!

2. Explain your first reason

3. Explain your second reason

4. Explain your third reason

5. Write your concluson

6. Proofread your essay

It's like training wheels for writing! After just a few weeks, I'm seeing my kids naturally structure their thoughts without needing to be reminded.

FEEDBACK

AI chatbots bypass thinking.

We help develop stronger thinkers.

AI chatbots bypass thinking. We help develop stronger thinkers.

AI chatbots bypass thinking. We help forge better thinkers.

CHATBOT:

Does the writing for students

Trains kids to write "AI slop"

Gives too much feedback at once

Distracts them with conversation

Prioritizes style over substance

STARBY:

Poses thoughtful questions

Helps find their unique voice

Gives one suggestion at a time

Focuses on constant revision

Ideas first, proofreading later

Try as a student

No signup required

This is exactly how I'd coach my students if I had the time. I see them building confidence by working through one thing at a time, and I don't have to worry about AI doing the work for them.

MOTIVATION

Writing can feel discouraging.

We make it genuinely rewarding.

(Without relying on cheap gamification…)

Many apps bribe kids to do work by promising a fun game at the end.

Teaches them that learning is a chore

WriteOn rewards real progress with stars, marking their growth over time.

Shows them that learning can be fun!

I have never seen my kids this excited to write! They beg me to use WriteOn every day, even the ones who used to dread writing.
