About this project
If you've ever tried to teach extra classes or run a therapy session with a neurodivergent kid, you already know the drill. You're balancing a laminated schedule, trying to figure out if your student is paying attention and getting it, a timer is clamped between your teeth, and your last free hand is guarding a squished gummy bear. Then a behavior happens. Was it a gestural prompt? Did they understand? Did they refuse for two minutes or three? You try to scrawl a note on a giant, bent clipboard while making sure nobody eats a couch cushions.
By 5 PM, you're sitting at your kitchen table staring at a stack of paper covered in chicken scratch. You have to spend the next two hours turning tally marks into a progress report that actually makes sense. It's brutal. Therapists are burnt out, parents are overwhelmed by clinical jargon, and half the time, nobody knows if the data shows actual progress or just sheer chaos.
That's why we at Tsosemi made mo-mentum. We wanted to get rid of the paperwork loop without replacing it with a sterile, soul-crushing hospital UI. It's a session planning and analytics tool that actually feels human to use.
When you're in the middle of a session or a personalized lesson, you don't have time to navigate clunky menus. Mo-mentum uses simple buttons you can hit with one thumb. If a kid completes a puzzle, you tap "Visual Prompt" and you're done. If they bolt because they're overwhelmed, you log "Escape" with a tap. If they understood your lesson, just a quick input. It stays out of your way.
The best part is wrapping up. Instead of writing English compositions and SOAP notes from scratch at midnight, the app takes your taps and logs to help draft a clean, clinically sound summary. It will write out something like: "Kojo showed high engagement today, requiring only gestural prompts for transitions. A brief refusal occurred for sensory input, resolved with a timer." You review it, fix anything that's off, and save it. It easily saves an hour or two of unpaid admin time.
It also handles the data tracking. Instead of flipping through a messy binder during a parent meeting, you can just pull up a clear chart that shows exactly how behaviors are trending. You can point to a screen and say, "Look, escape behaviors dropped by nearly half once we started using the first/then board." It proves the interventions are working without making everyone squint at a spreadsheet.
We split the app into therapist and parent modes so everyone stays aligned. Parents get a jargon-free look at what happened during the day, tied to a cute animal avatar, along with simple tips for home reinforcement. There's a shared calendar too, because if it isn't scheduled, it didn't happen.
Therapy is exhausting work. Tracking it shouldn't make you want to quit. Mo-mentum just keeps the data organized so you can focus on the child, not the clipboard.
