Speak is an AAC communication app for nonverbal children, adults with aphasia, and memory care patients — personalized by diagnosis and needs, with a private safety channel that lets them silently report if they feel unsafe.
When a resident or child presses the Help button, they can privately notify a trusted contact outside the immediate care relationship — without the person in the room seeing a thing. Works for children, adults with aphasia, and memory care patients. The trusted contact gets an alert immediately. No sound. Nothing visible on screen.
Every existing AAC app gives every person the same symbols regardless of diagnosis, age, or setting. Speak configures itself around who they actually are.
No app store. No download. Works on any device with a browser.
Core communication features are free to start. Clinics and schools get a free 30-day trial. The safety channel is free on every plan, forever.

The private safety channel is always free — on every plan, forever. Because safety should never require a subscription.

"Every existing AAC app gives every person the same grid — regardless of their diagnosis, their age, or their life. And not one of them has a private way to say I'm not safe — without the person in the room knowing."
Speak exists to fix both of those things. Built by an independent team, for families who deserve better.
Short updates only — new features, research updates, and the iOS app launch. No spam, ever.
The private safety channel in Speak notifies a trusted adult. In an immediate emergency, these 24/7 services are always available — free and confidential.
