I was finally able to use your app for the first time, and I'm absolutely blown away by how spot-on the first email it generated was. It needed no revisions, no clarifications, nothing. It knew what I wanted to say better than I did! Seriously, it's incredible!

As parents of a child who was recently diagnosed with dyslexia, navigating the educational system to secure the right accommodations was daunting. Highlighter has been instrumental in guiding us through the process. It’s truly been a game-changer.

When I went to IEP meetings, I pretty much stayed quiet. Honestly, I would be intimidated or not really sure what to say during them. I felt like I was supposed to know things I didn’t. Now that I’ve used Highlighter for a meeting, I’m like, “Let’s go!”
