Star Phonics
STAR Phonics is a web-based phonics assessment tool from Renaissance, intended to help educators quickly and precisely evaluate foundational reading skills in students. The assessment measures mastery across 12 key phonics categories and diagnoses 102 specific phonics skills, giving detailed insights into which phonics patterns a student has mastered and which require further instruction. The screening is efficient, typically taking only 2–5 minutes per student, and results are available immediately, without manual data entry. It provides diagnostic reports at the student, class, and grade level; these reports highlight patterns of error and skill-level gaps, helping teachers tailor instruction for individuals, small groups, entire classes, or whole grades. Recently, STAR Phonics has added enhanced features like audio pronunciation for every assessment word (to support correct scoring), and improved exportable screener data (by phonics category and by individual word).

Lalilo
Lalilo is a web-based foundational literacy program for early elementary (grades K–2) that delivers adaptive, standards-aligned practice in phonics, phonology, phonemic awareness, word recognition, sight-words, word families, reading comprehension, grammar and conventions, and vocabulary. From the first session, students take a placement test, and the system uses artificial intelligence to tailor the subsequent lessons to their level, ensuring each student works on “just-right” content. Lessons combine interactive exercises, voice/sound cues, and scaffolded reading tasks; as students progress, they unlock new stories, collect badges, and engage with content in a visually appealing, game-like journey. Teachers get detailed dashboards and reporting at class- and student-level, allowing them to assign custom lessons, monitor progress on individual skills (from phoneme recognition to comprehension), and identify areas needing support.
