Routio is a unique blend of app and physical tools designed specifically for children with ADHD. Routio's methodology is fundamentally evidence-based, leveraging interdisciplinary research in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and education to support children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Our primary focus is creating a solution to enhance cognitive abilities, specifically attention span and organizational skills, which are often challenging areas for children with ADHD. Parents and teachers play a crucial role in our approach as secondary users. They have access to progress tracking tools and resources to adapt learning environments, fostering an inclusive setting for children with ADHD.

The product allows children with ADHD to plan their daily schedules in the form of a puzzle, creating a visual representation of their tasks on the wall. Children can record voice notes, enhancing their interaction with the tasks and adding a personalized touch to their daily routines. The App keeps real-time records when tasks are completed, providing positive reinforcement. Additionally, each successful completion of a task earns the child a small house, making the entire process rewarding and motivating.
