Parent’s note
Mariella made a marble run from cardboard tubes, changed the slope when the marble got stuck and compared how far it travelled.

How it works
The world’s first live learning portfolio for your child.
A child learns most when the learning grows out of what already holds their attention.
Recording ordinary moments is how that belief becomes practice. Individa turns the experiences you choose to log into a clear account of your child’s interests, strengths and developing skills, giving you a living portfolio and ideas for what to explore next.
01
Write or speak about a natural moment
Write a short note or record a voice note about what your child did, enjoyed or explored. A game they invented, a repair they helped with or a question they followed can all be valuable learning moments. On the Full plan you can simply send it by WhatsApp from your phone, and Individa will ask if it needs anything else, such as how long it lasted.
02
Individa reads it back
It names what was actually going on: applied mechanics, sequencing, teaching to consolidate. You see the reading before it is saved, and you can change any part of it.
03
A picture grows over time
The moments you choose to record build a picture of how your child spends their learning time, the skills they practise and how they approach a difficult problem. Patterns emerge over time, including the things that keep showing up in their days and which skills have had fewer opportunities to develop.
04
Act on it, or hand it on
Choose the next activity from what holds your child’s attention. Individa also notices the skills they have explored less so far, then suggests ways to build those through things they already enjoy. The portfolio becomes a resource for anyone involved in your child’s learning.
From everyday moments to learning evidence
A natural moment. A clearer picture of learning.
Children learn when they are interested, curious and happy. From eight minutes writing a birthday card to an afternoon inventing a game, a short note can reveal the skills they are practising, including those a syllabus would recognise.

Illustrative readings from Mariella’s fictional example record. Individa describes the learning evidenced by a moment; it does not assess, diagnose or grade a child.
Six weeks in, a picture emerges
Small moments build a big picture.
Six weeks of consistently recording the things your child does: birthday cards, games, conversations, experiments and new experiences. Together, 25 moments and 35 hours reveal returning interests, growing confidence and skills that deserve more room to develop.
This summary shows how that understanding comes together: emerging strengths, and suggestions for activities that build less explored skills through familiar interests.
Mariella is fictional. This summary and her interactive demo are drawn from the same six-week example record, so what you see here is what you explore there.

Recorded moments across six weeks, rather than grades or comparisons.
Strengths taking shape
Returns to building and testing. Explains ideas with growing confidence and enjoys finding out why something works.
An invitation to explore
Physical activity appears in the fewest moments. Suggested next: a den-building afternoon, combining making with the movement she gets least often.
For the adults learning alongside her
Give her time to test an idea before stepping in. Drawing and explaining aloud often help her begin.
What it is not
Not a syllabus.
Their individuality comes first.
We do not hand you a scheme of work and ask your child to fit it.
Not a diagnostic tool.
A child is more than a label.
Individa does not assess, diagnose or indicate any condition.
Not surveillance.
You choose what goes in.
Only the moments you choose to log become part of the record. Voice recording begins only when you choose to record.
Not a scoreboard.
Their growth, at their pace.
There is no comparison against other children or age-expected target to fall below.
Your family’s privacy matters.
Your family’s record is private to your account unless you choose to share it. Our privacy notice explains how we handle your data and your rights under UK GDPR, including access, correction and deletion.
