## What is MindShield Reader?

Know what's inside a book before your child opens it.

MindShield Reader is a content-readiness tool for Christian parents, teachers, homeschoolers, schools, and libraries. Scan a book's barcode — or search by title — and get a clear, gentle report on its worldview, themes, age suitability, and possible content concerns in seconds.

MindShield is not a censor and not a replacement for your judgment. It's decision support: a fast first read that helps you start better conversations and decide with confidence.

WHAT YOU GET IN EVERY REPORT
• A plain-language summary of the book
• Recommended age range, with the reasoning behind it
• Worldview indicators and guidance for Christian families
• Content flags by category and severity, with the evidence behind each
• Themes, positive elements, and potential red flags
• Parent and teacher discussion questions
• An overall 0–100 readiness score on a clear, labeled scale
• A confidence level and source count — so you always know how much to lean on it
• "Why we scored it this way," in everyday language

BUILT ON TRANSPARENCY
Reports are AI-generated from available book metadata and public information. When evidence is thin, MindShield says so — using careful language like "available summaries suggest" and marking confidence low, rather than overclaiming. Every report shows how many sources informed it, and a feedback button lets you flag anything that seems off.

FAMILY-FIRST
• Add optional child profiles with reading levels
• See a tailored fit for each child — the same book can be right for one reader and "not yet" for another
• Save books to your library and revisit your scan history
• Your library syncs across your devices when you sign in
• Optional Face ID / Touch ID lock for privacy

MINDSHIELD PREMIUM
Free to start. Upgrade for unlimited scans and deeper analysis with monthly, yearly, or one-time lifetime options — less than the cost of one questionable book.

For parents, teachers, homeschoolers, and libraries who want wisdom and discernment before handing a book to a child.

Scan. Review. Decide with confidence.
