OnLit · Media Literacy for Families

The Team Behind OnLit

We’re building the media habits we wish we’d had as kids.

OnLit was founded as one of five capstone projects as a part of Riverdale Country Schools CS Capstone class.

What guides our decisions

Kids’ agency first

We design for kids to become critical thinkers, not just passive users. OnLit is meant to build judgment and confidence, not just block content.

Families over screentime

We care about better conversations at home more than time-on-app stats. OnLit should spark questions, not arguments about screen time.

Privacy by default

We don’t sell data or run ads. Trust from parents matters more than squeezing value out of kids’ attention.

Building OnLit with families and educators

We’re continuing to test and iterate beyond the capstone. If you’d like to try early versions, share feedback, or explore partnerships, we’d love to connect.
