They can’t justify the cost

This is just another typical children’s learn to read app. They cannot justify the cost of this. “It’s the best, trust us bro. We just dont know why” isn’t a very compelling reason. My son used free apps and is 98% nationally for reading in second grade. They even tell you “use the replay button if your child is struggling as we haven’t built our adaptive engine yet”. Okay, then dont change me as if you have. Even with a new engine, you cannot justify the cost of this. Endless ABCs and Wordplay are free and much better. This just has big investors who want their money back (Tim Ferris) and it’s quite embarrassing they want to charge $500 for this.

It works

My first went through Mentava starting in July 2025 at age 5.5. At the time, he recognized most letters, and that was about it. He completed Mentava in January of this year, reading at a 2nd grade level. Now, a full year after first starting Mentava, he’s reading at a 4th grade level! I am starting my second now at age 4.5, and I am super excited to see how he progresses!

The Ultimate Reading App

Completely aligned to the science of reading. The best premier app available.

Best reading app for kids

Mentava is such a solid platform for teaching kids to read. We’ve tried a bunch of other apps and they were by and large games disguised as education. My daughter made more progress in a week on Mentava than 6 months on other apps. 10/10 would recommend

Way to expensive

My daughter really likes the app but the price brings the review way down cause lets be realistic who has $500 a month just for reading practice like at that point i could buy an entire homeschool curriculum for cheaper
