IMPORTANT: Is This Device Suitable For You?

Important Suitability Information

Before purchasing, please consider whether the intended user can:

  • See where each line of text begins and ends.
  • Position the scanner tip directly over the printed words.
  • Move the pen steadily across the page.
  • Use the touchscreen to select features and settings.
  • Hear and understand the spoken results, either through the speaker or headphones.

The WisePen is generally not suitable for people who are completely blind, as the user must be able to locate and follow lines of printed text. It may also be difficult to use for people with limited hand control, significant tremors or difficulty operating a touchscreen.

Who Is the WisePen Suitable For?

The WisePen may be suitable for:

  • People with dyslexia, reading difficulties or low literacy.
  • Students and adults who benefit from hearing printed text read aloud.
  • People learning English or another language.
  • Users who can visually identify individual lines of printed text.
  • Users who can hold the pen steadily and scan it across a line of text.
  • Users who can operate a touchscreen and mostly understand the on-screen menus.
  • People who want support reading books, worksheets, letters, instructions and other printed materials.
Please Allow Time to Learn

Like any new assistive device, the WisePen can take some time and practice to use correctly. Scanning speed, angle and positioning can affect the results. 

We recommend starting with clear, standard-sized printed text and practising with short sentences before moving on to longer documents.

Results may vary depending on the user’s individual vision, dexterity, reading ability and support needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. What is the WisePen AI Reader?

The WisePen AI Reader is a smart, handheld reading tool that uses advanced AI to make reading, learning, and everyday communication easier. It scans printed text and reads it aloud instantly, and also includes a suite of powerful AI features designed to support study and understanding.

With tools like AI Scan & Solve, AI Homework Checker, AI Dictionary, AI Chat, and AI Lens, the WisePen can help explain concepts, check work, translate text, define words, and give personalised learning support. It also reads, translates, records, and stores information — giving users more confidence and independence at school, at home, or on the go.
Q2. Who is the WisePen AI Reader designed for?

It’s ideal for people of all ages — including students, adults learning new languages, travellers, or individuals with reading difficulties or vision impairments. It’s also a great classroom and workplace accessibility tool.
Q3. Is the WisePen suitable for people with reading challenges or accessibility needs?

Yes — the WisePen AI Reader is designed to make reading easier for a wide range of users. Its AI-driven tools can support people who experience challenges with reading fluency, comprehension, or visual processing. Many individuals and families find it helpful for:

  • Dyslexia and other reading differences
  • Alexia or difficulty recognising written words
  • Autism, where extra reading or comprehension support is often useful
  • Low literacy or developing literacy skills
  • Learning disabilities and learning disorders
  • General reading difficulties or slow reading speed
  • People learning English as a second language (ESL)
  • Individuals with mild visual impairments who benefit from text being read aloud
  • Older adults who struggle with fine print
  • People with ADHD who need extra focus and support when reading

The WisePen’s ability to read text aloud, translate instantly, explain concepts through AI Chat, and support step-by-step understanding makes it a helpful, confidence-building tool at home, at school, and in everyday life.
Q4. What can the WisePen do?

The WisePen can:

  • Read text aloud in real time
  • Translate between multiple languages using text scanning, photo translation, and voice translation
  • Record audio notes
  • Save scanned text for later use
  • Work offline for selected functions
Q5. How is the WisePen AI Reader pen different from other scanning pens?

The WisePen stands out because it’s built with far more AI-driven capability than most traditional scanning pens. Instead of just reading text aloud, it includes a full suite of smart tools designed to support reading, learning, and understanding in deeper, more practical ways.

Here’s how it’s different:

1. More AI-powered learning tools

The WisePen includes multiple AI features that go beyond basic text scanning:

  • AI Scan & Solve – helps break down problems or explain scanned content in simpler terms.
  • AI Homework Checker – checks work, helps with corrections, and explains the reasoning.
  • AI Dictionary – defines words instantly and provides clearer explanations.
  • AI Chat – answers questions, summarises information, or explains difficult concepts.
  • AI Lens – uses the camera to understand text or objects and provide useful information.

These features make the WisePen a richer learning companion than standard scanning pens, which usually only read text or offer limited translation.

2. Ability to scan some handwritten text*

Most scanning pens are restricted to printed text only. The WisePen can also recognise some handwriting — an advantage for students, workplaces, and users who deal with notes, worksheets, or hand-written forms.

*Accuracy depends on the clarity and legibility of the handwriting.

3. Stronger and more flexible translation support

Translation is one of WisePen's core strengths. It supports different numbers of languages depending on the feature you use:

  • Voice Translation: 112 languages
  • Text Scan Translation: 55 languages
  • Photo Translation: 55 languages
  • Offline languages: 19 languages
  • AI Reader languages: 5 languages
  • Collins Dictionary: 6 languages
  • AI Chat languages: 18 languages

This is far more robust than many standard scanning pens, which typically offer limited translation options and far fewer supported languages.

4. Larger 3.99-inch (~4 inch) display

The WisePen has a noticeably larger screen than most pens in its category. A bigger display makes it easier for users to:

  • See scanned text more clearly
  • Follow translations word-by-word
  • Navigate menus with better visibility
  • View images, instructions, and explanations from AI tools
  • Reduce eye strain — especially helpful for seniors, ESL learners, and users with low literacy or mild visual challenges

The large screen dramatically improves ease of use compared to pens with small, narrow displays.
Q6. Can WisePen scan text from a computer or tablet screen?

WisePen is optimised for scanning printed text, where lighting and surface conditions allow for the highest accuracy.

Although the device includes screen scanning capability, performance may be affected by screen resolution, brightness, and glare. Because digital displays emit light rather than reflect it like paper, results may differ from printed materials.

For improved accuracy, we recommend using the WisePen camera function to capture an image of the screen. The AI image recognition feature is typically more effective for digital content.
Q7. Why can’t I access the AI Chat feature after using for a year?

The WisePen AI Reader includes 200 free AI usage credits per month for the first year from the date the device is activated. After the first year, the complimentary credits expire, and continued access to the AI Chat and other AI features may require a membership subscription.

If your free credits have ended, you can purchase additional AI usage through the device.

To do this, go to:

Settings → Membership Info

A QR code will appear on the screen, which you can scan with your mobile phone to access the membership purchase page.

Can the WisePen AI Reader be purchased using NDIS funding?

The WisePen AI Reader may be suitable for some NDIS participants who need support with reading, comprehension, communication or learning. Whether it can be purchased using NDIS funding depends on the participant’s individual circumstances, plan goals and whether the support is considered reasonable and necessary.

The WisePen may be relevant as assistive technology for participants who need help with text access, literacy support, language understanding or everyday communication tasks. Funding decisions are made on an individual basis, so approval is not guaranteed.

We work with NDIS participants, support coordinators, plan managers and therapists by providing product information, quotes and general guidance about the WisePen. If you need help understanding the product features, please contact our team. For funding eligibility, please check with your plan manager, support coordinator or the NDIA before purchase.
