Digika Co.,Ltd

【New Method of Mental Calculation】 SoroTouch is a Japanese-made EdTech app for iPad that allows you to learn the abacus method of mental calculation in a fun, innovative way!

We pride ourselves in the excellent user experience we've created through the combination of patented technology and our mindset as parents, to commit to a higher standard of learning.

【“STEM Skills Epidemic”】
One of the issues facing American education currently, being that math and science levels are particularly low in comparison to other subjects, is a growing concern for parents and teachers across the country alike. It is also a concern for employers as there is a growing need for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) professionals in the workforce. If there was an efficient way to combat this issue, this would not only be beneficial for the children, but for the parents, teachers, and society. This is where SoroTouch comes into play.

【“Tech Epidemic”】
Children in this generation are already surrounded by technology, which is a fact we cannot change. Therefore, instead of having children play games aimlessly with no educational benefit for them, is it not better to make them feel like they are playing a game when they are actually learning? As a parent, it is easy to fall into the habit of giving your children technology to keep them busy or to stop them from crying in public, etc., but with SoroTouch, you would be giving technology to your child with a good conscience. By playing SoroTouch on your iPad, your child will be able to learn useful mental calculation skills that will help them excel not only in STEM classes from K-12, but through their college years and into their adult life!

The potential that children hold in their future is our motivation and passion. If they start building a solid foundation in math learning mental calculation skills at a young age, it will lead to better performance in school, leading to even more opportunities when entering the workforce!
