OUR STORY

We didn’t set out to build an app. We set out to prove our daughter was learning — and then realised every home-ed family needed the same thing.

Jayne & Richard · founders, and Skyla’s parents

HOW IT BEGAN

A scepticism, then a search, then a build.

Jayne was always sceptical of the default. The fixed calendar that won’t let you take your kids out for a life lesson. The one-size-fits-all treatment of children who are anything but. It never sat right.

So she read. Study after study showed home-educated children often developing stronger confidence, emotional regulation, and a real love of learning. Her instincts and the evidence agreed: this could work.

Skyla never started school. This is the year her home education begins — from scratch, on her own clock. And the question every home-ed parent eventually faces arrived early: how do you show that all this real learning is happening?

You are not short of learning. You are short of permission to believe it counts.

Jayne and Richard built Flybrite at the kitchen table to answer it — for themselves first. Their daughter is flying. Fly bright. Flybrite. We use the product every day.

“Every day is a learning day — a walk, a bake, a conversation. Flybrite captures what you already do and reflects it back, so you can see you’re doing enough. That validation is the whole point.”

FROM JAYNE

"We built Flybrite for the parent who ends the day wondering if any of it counted. It did. You just needed a way to see it."

Jayne and Richard started Flybrite from their kitchen for their daughter Skyla — four years old, never set foot in a school, and starting her home education with us this year. We use the product every day.
