Everything you need to be heard.

Designed with accessibility first — for users with autism, ALS, aphasia, and limited motor control.

AAC Communication Board

Tap picture tiles to speak. Core words are coloured by word type, and phrases build a sentence you can play in one tap.

Type anything and hear it spoken. Word prediction learns your own words, and Show puts the message full screen.

03 / READ

Read Aloud

Scan a page, open a PDF or paste text, and hear it read with every word highlighted.

When someone asks you a question, short replies appear. Tap one to answer.
