Hi, I’m rez0.
I’m an AI and security researcher, and a dad of three. I want my kids learning at their own pace and actually mastering things, without being stuck on a screen all day. I couldn’t find one tool that did everything I wanted. Our kids were using 5 different apps.
So I built Rascals: a full e-learning platform for K through 5 with 750+ bite-size lessons, high-quality videos, and an AI coach that never just gives the answer. It focuses on mastery instead of seat-time, with a clear stop so the rest of childhood gets the rest of the day.
Take a peek inside
Real screens, not mockups. This is what your kid sees every morning.
Made for the way your family learns
Full-time homeschool, a co-op two days a week, or a hybrid schedule — Rascals fits around whatever your week actually looks like.
Lessons unlock as kids actually master them — and the tough ones come back over several days to lock them in, never grinding the same thing three times in a row.
Otto gives hints and asks questions but never the answer. Every chat is logged for you to read. No idioms, no autoplay, neurodivergent-friendly by default.
Two to three focused hours on the tablet — add more lessons if you want. Collectible Rascal Cards and forgiving streaks keep kids coming back, then they close it and go play.
How it works
Set it up once — then it runs your school day.
A quick adaptive check finds the right starting level per subject — a kid can be grade 4 in math and grade 2 in reading. Or just set it yourself.
Every school day, Rascals builds a balanced lesson queue from your subjects and pace. You can plan the year, or let it run.
Kids work the queue with Otto's help, earn Rascal Cards, and you get a Kentucky-ready attendance + mastery record automatically.
One app instead of six
Most families stitch together five or six tools. Rascals is the one place the whole day lives — every subject, all in one rhythm.

Questions parents ask
Is the AI safe for my kid?
Otto never gives answers — only hints and questions — uses no idioms, and flags concerning messages. Every conversation is saved for you to read in the parent console. Audio is off by default and there's no autoplay or ads.
Do my kids need their own logins?
No. Parents have the login; kids just open the app and learn. You can set an optional 4-digit passcode per kid so siblings can't hop into the wrong profile.
How much screen time is this?
It's designed around a focused two-to-three-hour block, then done — though you can add more lessons if you want. Mastery, not seat-time, decides when a lesson is finished, so kids aren't padding hours on a screen.
How much does it cost?
One simple plan: $20 per kid per month, everything included — all subjects, the AI coach, lessons, cards, the story library, and the AI Parent Dashboard (coloring pages, worksheets, and an advisor that knows your kid's progress). A 2-kid family is $40/mo, or save with annual billing at $200/kid/year (2 months free). Cancel anytime.
Does it help with homeschool paperwork?
Yes — attendance and mastery roll up automatically into a Kentucky-ready scholarship report and letter of intent. More states are on the way.
