Reading is a hatching adventure.

Your kid finishes a book. ReadHatch quizzes them on it. If they actually read it, they earn points and eventually hatch a pet. You can see all of it from your phone.

The Phoenix hatchling popping out of an open book
How it works

Four steps from the last page to a new pet.

  1. Step 1

    They finish a book

    Any book with a title. About 30 million are searchable through Open Library.

  2. Step 2

    They take a 10-question quiz

    Written from that exact book and matched to their age. Inference, theme, vocabulary, plot.

  3. Step 3

    They pass with 7 of 10

    Points count on the first passing try. Retakes are fine; guessing doesn't pay.

  4. The Dragon hatchling
    Step 4

    Something hatches

    Each points milestone unlocks a new pet. Ten in all, and the last one is hard to get.

The sticker album

Collect all ten.

A phoenix. A dragon. A unicorn. A very earnest turtle. Kids unlock one at each points milestone, and the last one is a genuine badge of honor.

For parents and tutors

Proof they read it. Nothing for them to log in to.

Think of it as Accelerated Reader at home, for any book on the shelf. You see which books, how the quizzes went, and whether the weekly goal is happening. That's it.

  • Every quiz, question by question, for every book they read.
  • A weekly goal you set once. Streaks and levels do the nagging.
  • No kid account. You enter a first name and an age, and that's all.
The short version

What is ReadHatch?

ReadHatch is an app for iPhone and Android that gives kids a 10-question comprehension quiz on any book they've finished reading. The quiz is AI-generated from the specific book, not a generic reading-comp template, and matched to the reader's age. Kids pass a quiz (7 out of 10 correct), earn points, and unlock one of 10 collectible hatchling pets. Parents manage everything; children never create an account. Free for 3 quizzes a month, or $4.99/mo (or $39.99/year) for unlimited.

How does ReadHatch work?

  1. 1. A parent creates a reader profile. Just a first name and age. No child login, no child email, no data leaving the household for marketing.
  2. 2. Your kid finishes a book. Any book. Search the title in the app; ReadHatch pulls from ~30 million titles via Open Library.
  3. 3. They take a 10-question quiz.Multiple choice. Questions cover inference, theme, vocabulary, and specific plot details, not just recall. Difficulty is scaled to the reader's age.
  4. 4. Pass (70%) and earn points. Retakes are allowed, but points only count on the first passing attempt. Miss a day and the streak resets.
  5. 5. Hatch a pet at each milestone. Ten pets in total. The 10th is a genuine trophy: hard to earn, easy to brag about.

Who is ReadHatch for?

Think of ReadHatch as Accelerated Reader at home for any parent or tutor who wants to know a kid actually read the book. That includes families whose school doesn't run AR, kids reading outside the school AR list, summer reading, homeschool families, and any reader roughly ages 6–12 who could use a reason to keep going.

FAQ

Questions parents and tutors ask

What is ReadHatch?

ReadHatch is an app for iPhone and Android that gives kids a 10-question AI-generated comprehension quiz on any book they've finished reading. Kids pass a quiz (7 out of 10 correct), earn points, and unlock one of 10 collectible reading pets. Parents manage everything through a dashboard — children never create an account.

How does ReadHatch work?

A parent creates a reader profile with just a first name and age. When a child finishes a book, they search for the title in the app and take a 10-question multiple-choice quiz. Questions are AI-generated from the specific book and scaled to the reader's age. Passing (7 of 10) earns points; every points milestone hatches one of 10 collectible pets.

Who is ReadHatch for?

Any parent who wants proof their kid actually read the book. That includes families whose school doesn't run Accelerated Reader, kids reading outside the school AR list, summer reading, homeschool families, and any child roughly ages 6–12 who reads real books. ReadHatch is essentially Accelerated Reader for use at home.

How much does ReadHatch cost?

ReadHatch has a free tier with 3 quizzes per month and one reader profile. Pro is $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year (a 33% discount on the annual plan) and includes unlimited quizzes, multiple reader profiles, and weekly reading goals.

Is ReadHatch safe for kids?

Yes. ReadHatch is COPPA-friendly by design. Children do not create accounts or log in — parents sign in and manage everything. Reader profiles contain only a first name and age, used solely to personalize quiz difficulty, and are never shared with third parties for marketing.

What devices does ReadHatch work on?

ReadHatch runs on iPhone and iPad through the Apple App Store, and on Android phones and tablets through Google Play.

Is ReadHatch available on Android?

Yes. ReadHatch is on Google Play at play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.readhatch.app. It is the same app as the iOS version — the same AI-generated 10-question quizzes, the same 10 collectible reading pets, and the same parent dashboard.

How does ReadHatch generate quiz questions?

ReadHatch uses AI to generate 10 age-appropriate multiple-choice comprehension questions for any book. Questions focus on real understanding — inference, theme, vocabulary, and details — not just memorization.

How many reading pets can my child collect?

There are 10 unique reading pets to collect. Each is unlocked by reaching a points milestone, which kids earn by passing quizzes on books they've read.

How is ReadHatch different from Accelerated Reader?

Accelerated Reader (AR) is a school-purchased program that generates quizzes for a fixed catalog of books, and access typically requires a school license. ReadHatch is a parent-facing subscription app that generates quizzes on the fly for any book in Open Library's ~30 million title catalog, works outside of school, and doesn't require a school account.

Read a book. Hatch a friend.

Three quizzes a month are free, on iPhone, iPad and Android.
