Custom 3D printed adaptive tools

Learning tools made for one kid at a time

We design and 3D print customized learning tools and adaptive aids for K-12 special education students — for the classroom, for therapy, and for everyday independence.

Specialized adaptive equipment is expensive and slow to arrive, so families and schools end up with one-size-fits-all substitutes. We make the tool fit the kid instead: their hands, their goals, and the way they actually use it.

How it works, and why it matters

Every tool starts with one student and the thing they are working on.

  • Made for one kid

    Each tool is designed around a specific student — the size of their hands, the goal they are working toward, and how they will actually use it day to day.

  • Free for public schools

    Customized tools are given to special education teachers in public schools at no cost, so a classroom budget is never the reason a student goes without.

  • Beyond the classroom

    The same tools support speech and language therapy, physical and occupational activities, and everyday independence at home.

  • Without the long wait

    Sourcing specialized adaptive equipment can take months. Designing and printing it ourselves cuts the wait down to the making.

What families and therapists tell us

  • These cubes provide a hands-on way for our students to understand abstract ideas, like mathematical concepts, that can be difficult to grasp mentally. By offering a physical and tactile experience, they help build problem-solving skills by giving learners a concrete tool to work through challenges while keeping things fun and engaging!

  • The button cap we have now has been truly helpful and can increase our productivity tenfold. We are seeing a dramatic increase in our student's use of the button. He is using it more and responding within a few seconds now. Thank you!
