Screen for handwriting difficulties in under 60 seconds. WriteTrax gives teachers an instant, evidence-based handwriting assessment from a single photograph — Photograph a student's handwriting sample. WriteTrax analyzes it across five clinical dimensions and returns a complete assessment with scores, root cause identification, and classroom-ready intervention strategies. Export a professional PDF report in one tap. HOW IT WORKS Select a student from your class roster Photograph their handwriting sample Receive a complete assessment in under 60 seconds Export a professional PDF for documentation Student names never leave your device. No cloud database. No student records transmitted. FIVE-DIMENSION SCORING Every assessment scores the sample across five dimensions aligned with established OT assessment frameworks: Letter Formation — shape accuracy, reversals, stroke direction Line Alignment — baseline contact, drift, ascender placement Spacing — letter gaps within words, spacing between words Sizing — x-height consistency, proportional accuracy Slant Consistency — angle uniformity across the sample Each dimension is scored 0–100 and weighted by grade level — a Pre-K assessment applies developmentally appropriate expectations, a high school assessment applies different ones. ROOT CAUSE IDENTIFICATION WriteTrax identifies the primary pattern driving the difficulty: Motor/Graphomotor — tremor, fatigue, pencil control Knowledge/Learning — systematic reversals, letter malformation Attention/Executive Function — inconsistent errors, quality variance Root cause drives the intervention recommendations. A motor difficulty gets different strategies than a knowledge gap. PROFESSIONAL REPORTS Every assessment generates a complete PDF including: Overall grade-adjusted score All five dimension scores with rationale Root cause attribution with supporting evidence Three-paragraph professional narrative Three to four grade-appropriate intervention strategies PROGRESS TRACKING Assess the same student over time and watch scores change. WriteTrax tracks every assessment and displays progress charts across all five dimensions. Class-level reports show score distributions and root cause patterns across your entire roster. BUILT FOR EVERY CLASSROOM WriteTrax supports Pre-K through 12th grade across three handwriting styles — printing, cursive, and joined italic. Whether you teach kindergarten, manage a special education caseload, or work as a school-based OT, WriteTrax gives you a documented baseline in under a minute.
