EGRA & EGMA Support
Full support for Early Grade Reading Assessments (letter naming, word reading, oral passage reading, comprehension) and Early Grade Mathematics Assessments (number identification, arithmetic).
Offline-First Design
Complete offline functionality for data collection in low-connectivity areas. All data is securely stored locally and synchronized when connectivity is restored.
Timed Assessments
Customizable timers for timed test components (1-minute, 3-minute passages). Automatic start, stop, and elapsed time recording with traditional stopping rules.
Audio Capture
Voice recording with automatic noise suppression for oral assessments. Audio files are stored securely for review and future AI-based scoring.
