About SpeechLink AAC
Every voice deserves to be heard. SpeechLink is an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) app designed by and for people with speech impairments, autism, aphasia, ALS, and vocal limitations.
Our Mission: Communication for All
SpeechLink was born from a simple belief: communication is a fundamental human right. Whether you're nonverbal due to autism, recovering from a stroke with aphasia, living with ALS, or managing spasmodic dysphonia, your voice matters.
Unlike other AAC apps built on assumptions, every feature in SpeechLink has been co-created with people who truly understand speech challenges. We don't just build for the community - we ARE the community.
Our goal isn't just to help you communicate; it's to help you express yourself with your own cultural voice, personality, and dignity intact.
Why SpeechLink Exists
- →Traditional AAC apps often feel generic and impersonal
- →Many lack cultural diversity in voice options
- →Expensive solutions put communication out of reach
- →Features designed without real user input
