The story behind the app
Built with Sage, not around an abstract “user.”
Phil first built Sage’s World for his son, Sage—a non-speaking teenager whose understanding, interests and independence cannot be captured by a verbal answer alone.
The app grew from a practical need: make Sage’s learning goals more personal, give him more ways to show what he knows, and help the adults around him see where support could make the biggest difference.
What began with one family is becoming a shared tool for other families and educators who know that ability is often present before it is easy to observe.
