The Founding Readers program
A small commitment with a permanent thank-you.
We’re looking for people who will genuinely read, not professional testers. Any committed language learner aged 18 or older can apply.
Read the stories
Use Storyglot on four different days and finish at least five chapters over two weeks.
Tell us the truth
Complete two quick check-ins and a final survey. Specific criticism is genuinely useful.
Keep Premium
Complete the program and receive lifetime access to every Premium story in every language.
Built for real life
Learning between trips, shifts, classes, or quiet evenings? You’re who we need.
Read on a commute, between client calls, while traveling, or alongside a course. Help us learn whether stories can make language practice easier to sustain than another set of exercises.
Independent learners
Digital nomads
Working professionals
Students and educators
Frequent travelers
