A learning journal for
homeschoolers

Track what your kid does. See how random activities turn into real interests — and generate reports when you need them.

Log anything. Kaleido finds the learning in it.

Your kid does a hundred things a week. Some of it's play, some of it's learning, most of it's both. You write a quick note and Kaleido extracts learning signals, maps it to subjects and standards. Over weeks it shows you patterns and insights. When an evaluator asks what your kid's been doing, you export a report.

How it works

Snap a photo. Write a note. Kaleido does the rest.

Logging

30-second entries

Photo, note, or link. On your phone. Half a minute. You do it between breakfast and the next adventure.

AI

Automatic subject mapping

Kaleido reads your entry and maps it to subjects and standards — chemistry, earth science, Common Core. You never tag anything.

Patterns

Interest map

Over months, see which subjects keep showing up and which were a passing week. A map of what your kid actually spends time on.

Family

Multiple kids

Each child gets their own profile with separate entries and threads. Switch between them in one tap.

Global

Works anywhere

Homeschooling, unschooling, worldschooling — wherever learning happens, Kaleido captures it.

Connect the Dots

Flour for cookies on Monday. Soil for the garden on Wednesday. Prices at the store on Friday. One thread: measurement and practical arithmetic.

Discovery

Thread discovery

Kaleido reads all your entries and finds patterns across weeks. Dates, entries, evidence — linked together. Some you'd never notice in a journal.

Export

Standards-mapped reports

Export a PDF with every entry organized by subject and mapped to standards (NGSS, Common Core). A year of learning, one file.

Depth

Projects

When your kid goes deep — building a robot or growing a garden — group entries into a project and see the full timeline.

Progress

Goals

"Read 20 books this year." "Learn 50 Spanish words." Set goals together, track how far along you are.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions answered.
What counts as an AI entry?
When you write a note and Kaleido analyzes it — mapping subjects, standards, and connections — that's an AI entry. Manual entries (just text/photos without analysis) are always unlimited on every plan.
Can I switch between children?
Yes. Each child has their own profile with separate entries, threads, and portfolio. On the Free plan you get one profile; Pro gives you unlimited profiles for your whole family.
What standards does Kaleido support?
Kaleido maps entries to NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards) and Common Core standards. We're adding more frameworks over time based on what families need.
Can I export my data?
Pro users can export a full PDF report with every entry organized by subject and mapped to standards. Perfect for portfolio reviews, umbrella schools, or year-end documentation.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your entries are private by default. The public portfolio feature is opt-in — you choose exactly which entries to share and which stay private. We never sell your data.
