Beanstack

Beanstack is a digital reading engagement and literacy-tracking platform for public libraries, K-12 schools, and school districts. Its core product enables institutions to run and manage reading challenges (e.g., summer reading, school-wide literacy initiatives), track books and minutes read, and motivate students through gamification features such as badges, incentives, and progress dashboards, while also engaging families and caregivers. The platform aligns with evidence-based literacy research emphasizing reading volume, intrinsic motivation, and positive reinforcement.
