About Us

Educational Software and Assistive Technology

IntelliTools®, Inc., a pioneer in learning solutions for the diverse classroom, has been producing award-winning classroom tools for preK-8 education for over 25 years (see Our History). Early on, IntelliTools designed products for students who face challenges ranging from learning disabilities to significant physical disabilities. Our flagship product, IntelliKeys^®, is a programmable alternative keyboard that enables users with physical, visual or cognitive disabilities to easily type, enter numbers, navigate on-screen displays, and execute menu commands.

In recent years, IntelliTools has broadened its product offering, developing curriculum software to help students meet national and state standards in math and language arts, including its award-winning IntelliTools® Reading: Balanced Literacy program for K-2 emerging readers and IntelliTools Math products for K-8 students. Our latest product launch is the IntelliTools Classroom Suite of software tools, including IntelliTalk 3, IntelliMathics 3, and IntelliPics Studio 3. IntelliTools Classroom provides preK-8 educators with an integrated suite of network-capable resources for both general education and special needs students, truly meeting the needs of the diverse classroom. ReadyMade Curriculum Activities complement Classroom Tools, providing educators with ready-to-use activities for language arts, math, and social studies. Science products debut in 2004. Looking forward, IntelliTools' products are finding applications outside the classroom and homeschool communities. The IntelliKeys adaptive keyboard is currently enabling access for elderly computer users, including those with disabilities. IntelliKeys also enables computer access in the work environment, or library environment, for users with special needs. IntelliKeys is being used to provide computer access and communication abilities for patients in acute care and rehabilitation.

IntelliTools has been the recipient of major development grants from the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health. Our products have won numerous awards, including thirteen prestigious Technology & Learning Awards of Excellence and two Tibbetts Awards, among others.
