For NHS trusts, neuro-rehabilitation units, private clinics and charities

Buying ReWrite and Stroke Sight for your service

Two rehabilitation practice apps that collect no data at all — no accounts, no analytics, no servers. That is not a privacy footnote; it is the reason there is nothing here for your information-governance team to review.

The short version

ReWrite is handwriting practice for adults whose writing has been changed by a neurological condition — stroke, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, brain injury. Stroke Sight is visual scanning and reading practice for people with hemianopia, quadrantanopia or visual neglect. Both are £29.99 as a one-off purchase, per person, for ever. There is no subscription, no in-app purchase and no renewal.

Both run entirely on the device. There is no login, no cloud, no telemetry, no crash reporting and no advertising identifier. Nothing a patient writes or taps leaves the tablet they are holding.

Information governance: what you do not have to do

Because no personal data is collected, transmitted or stored anywhere but the patient's own device, the usual procurement chain for a clinical app does not apply. Specifically:

The full privacy notices are linked at the foot of this page. They are short, and they say the same thing.

Medical device status

Neither app is a medical device, and neither is marketed as one. They are practice and wellness tools intended to supplement, not replace, therapy delivered by a qualified clinician. They do not diagnose, they do not screen, they do not triage, they make no treatment recommendation, and no clinical decision is intended to be taken on the basis of any number they display. The in-app text says so, the store listings say so, and the PDF report says so on its face.

We are happy to put that position in writing on headed paper for your governance file, and to answer questions about DCB0129 and DCB0160 scope. Ask and we will respond in full.

What the clinician actually gets

Buying more than one copy

iPad and iPhone

If your organisation uses Apple Business Manager or Apple School Manager, both apps can be bought in volume and assigned to devices or to people through your MDM in the normal way. Nothing is required from us and there is no separate enterprise agreement to sign — the apps are ordinary public App Store apps, so they appear in Apps and Books like any other. Licences are reassignable when a device is redeployed.

Price is the standard £29.99 per licence. We do not currently offer the Apple education volume discount, because Apple only allows a developer to enable it before an app is first approved and ours were approved without it. If you are an educational institution and that matters to your budget, tell us — we would rather find another way to make the numbers work than lose the conversation.

Android and Fire tablets

Google withdrew bulk purchasing of paid apps from managed Google Play in 2019, so there is no equivalent mechanism. For Android and Fire fleets we supply redemption codes in the quantity you need against a single invoice from Ansteyapps Limited, and your team redeems them on the devices. It is one extra step and it works.

Invoicing

Ansteyapps Limited is a UK company (no. 17177054, registered in England and Wales) and can invoice a trust, clinic or charity directly for a code order, with purchase-order references, on standard payment terms.

Evaluating before you buy

You should not have to spend money to find out whether something is any good. Ask and we will send free codes for your team to evaluate — enough for the clinicians who would actually be recommending it, not one. You can also try both apps in the browser right now, with no download and no sign-up:

What we will not claim

We have no randomised trial and we do not pretend otherwise. The exercises are built on published rehabilitation principles — repetition, amplitude, scanning into the affected field — and on review by practising clinicians, and the honest summary of the evidence is on our clinicians page. If somebody tells you a £29.99 app is proven to restore function, they are selling you something. We are selling structured practice that a person will actually do at home between appointments, in their own language, without handing their data to anyone.

Talk to a person

Ansteyapps is one person: Liam Anstey, who built both apps after his partner had a stroke at 35. Email liam.anstey@gmail.com and you will get a reply from him, not a sales team. Say roughly how many licences you are thinking about and which platform, and he will send a quote and the codes to evaluate.
