Milo

SEN-aware writing support for Google Docs

Every learner writes differently. Milo watches how your child writes — not just what they write — and quietly adapts its support to the way they work best. Milo is a free Chrome extension that works inside Google Docs. It's built for students who learn differently — whether that's dyslexia, ADHD, autism, language processing differences, or needs that haven't been identified yet. But any student who wants to write better can use it. It doesn't write for them. It helps them find their own way there. How Milo helps Some students freeze at a blank page. Some rush through without structure. Some lose focus halfway. Milo picks up on how your child approaches writing and adjusts its support so homework feels less overwhelming and progress becomes more visible. What's free Typing insights — from day one Milo runs quietly while your child writes in Google Docs. It tracks patterns like speed, pauses, corrections, and consistency. Over time, this builds a picture that can surface early indicators of learning differences — often before they show up in grades. No card required, no time limit. What's in Milo+ (£10/month) Milo+ unlocks the full writing support experience: Structure, expand, and assess guides Three guided tools that help your child plan their work, add detail where it matters, and understand how well their draft meets the task — with strengths and next steps, never grades. Milo Chat — a writing assistant that adapts Ask for simpler words, shorter sentences, or help getting unstuck. Milo responds to your child's writing level and preferences — and gets better the more they use it. Extended analytics and long-term progress See how writing patterns change over weeks, months, and terms. The kind of longitudinal picture that professionals use — built into everyday homework. Connect to Google Classroom to enhance Milo's learning and Special Education Needs assessment over time - Milo tracks your child's assignments, the support we offered and the grade received so that we can measure actual performance and improvement over time. Break timer Set a session length. Get a reminder when it's time to stop. Simple, but it makes a real difference for learners who struggle with attention or fatigue. Cancel anytime — no lock-in. Important Milo provides screening-style indicators based on typing patterns. It is not a medical, educational, or psychological diagnosis, and is not a substitute for professional assessment. Earlier support changes outcomes. Milo helps surface the picture sooner — so you can act while it still makes a difference.
