Torah Reading Transformed

Creating Virtual Tikkuns

Our proprietary capture platform, designed specifically for Torah scrolls, optimizes image quality, automatically identifies parshiot and aliyot, and creates Torah, Chumash, and aligned Tikkun views  – at scale. 

Learning with Virtual Tikkun

Torah Learning is organized into task-based journeys using Browse, Learn, Teach and Calendar capabilities. Focus-in-Context™ for selected aliyot optimizes the learning experience with multiple learning styles. 

Personalized Journeys

Workflows for clergy and teachers, B’nai Mitzvah students and adult readers, enable students with multiple learning styles, while teachers can create assignments, track progress, and collaborate with their students.

Collaborative Learning

Clergy/tutors collaborate with learners using in-app audio recording, messaging, file-sharing and more. Students and teachers can add new resources as they collaborate during the learning process. 

Aliya Flashcards

Aliya flashcards, a unique feature of Virtual Tikkun, allow users to learn verse by verse, with optional trope color-coding to bootstrap student’s learning. Multiple card “faces” support different stages of study. 

Assign & Invite

Insights from our Customers

Congregation Beth Sholom, San Francisco

To bring more of our Torah scrolls into rotation for regular reading use, including several saved from the Shoah, and to better support our B’nai Mitzvah students and new lay readers, Virtual Tikkun delivered immediate, high-quality access to images of each scroll, organized by parshiot (individual portions), that make learning and chanting Torah easy and accessible. Beth Sholom is proud to be the pilot for this holy project

Rabbi Amanda Russell

Temple Beth Abraham, Oakland

What a pleasure this experience has been. David and his team have been very easy to work with, very responsive to our needs and goals. They worked quickly and efficiently when photographing our Torah and listened closely to our feedback and suggestions for new functionality, implementing them quickly. The intuitive interface of Virtual Tikkun will make our Torah readers very happy.
