Removing barriers to understanding through assistive-reading technology.

Our Mission: to empower every adult to understand what they need to know now and, over time, become literate to advance in a dynamic world.

The Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) is a worldwide study of cognitive and workplace skills in 24 countries conducted by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Widespread Adult Illiteracy

Literacy is a skill necessary for most living-wage work, yet approximately 32 million adults are unable to understand workplace documents.

Strained System Capacity

Only 10% of those adults have access to the instruction they need.
Shrinking Workforce

Fewer employees are available to fill positions that are increasingly more technical.
Economic Costs

Illiteracy affects quality of life and workplace safety and productivity, costing the U.S. $2.2 trillion in annual income.

Why GogyUp works

When we combine GogyUp’s assistive reading technology with your training material, the critical information you need your employees to know immediately becomes more understandable - especially for employees with limited literacy skills or English proficiency.

What’s more, GogyUp’s approach to literacy skill development means that as you implement GogyUp across your workplace, every employee can increase their ability to understand training, safety protocols, new policies, etc.

Yet GogyUp is simple and quick to use:

1 Simple to Use

All you need to do is send current training documents, slide decks, etc. to your GogyUp account.

2 Instantly Accessible

GogyUp combines our technology with your training and securely makes it available to your employees on mobile devices and the Web.

3 Deeper Understanding

With GogyUp’s Learning Manager, you get a new window into what your employees understand and employees gain an “on-demand” tutor to help learn a new term or concept.
