The all‑in‑one AAC app.

Yes, really.

Simply ask, and will build any AAC tool you need: from robust symbol-based communication and predictive text-based AAC systems to activity boards, visual scenes, schedules and printables.
Need to change something? Just ask again.

A revolution in AAC.

How does AAC work?

Tell what kind of tool you need. builds it on the fly, personalized to the communicator who will use it.

A board for Maria's first dentist visit. She's 7 and loves dinosaurs.
Step 1

Ask for what you need

Type or say it in plain words: a visual schedule for the morning, a board for the zoo, a full communication system. Then fine-tune the details in a simple interface, or just keep chatting.

Step 2

builds it on the fly

In seconds you get a ready-to-use tool, with its words, pictures, layout and settings tailored to your request and the communicator's profile.

Add "rinse" and take out "brush".
Step 3

Edit anything, just by asking

Ask for new words, words swapped around, a different layout or bigger pictures, and makes the change. You can always edit anything by hand too, in a simple interface.

What can build?

Symbol-based robust AAC

Four robust systems, ready to use

Four types of robust system, each with its own organization and navigation strategy. Their vocabulary of about 4,000 words was carefully curated based on field standards and scientific research in AAC and Human-Computer Interaction. Every system grows with the communicator through progressive vocabulary levels, and everything is highly customizable.

Core-word flagship

's flagship. The whole vocabulary in the fewest taps, with a fixed core one tap from every board and levels that grow the set without ever moving a button.

88 buttons

Category-based

A core-word home plus deep, organized category folders, the classic, familiar way to find any word by its topic.

66 buttonsCompact: 36

Fixed-core

The core lives in the same place on every single page, so a full sentence is always within reach, no page ever hides it.

77 buttons

Motor-planning

One consistent motor plan: every word keeps its exact place on every board, so the path to a word becomes muscle memory.

84 buttons
Text-based AAC

Next-generation predictive text that learns your words

A fast keyboard for literate communicators, with prediction that gets quicker the more it is used, a motor-planned word grid where every predicted word always appears in the same place, and a tidy home for every phrase worth keeping.

Word, next-word & phrase prediction
Completes the word being typed, suggests the most likely next one, and finishes a whole thought from its first few words.
Motor-planned word grid
A novel prediction method created by : each word always appears in the same fixed cell whenever it is predicted, so frequent words become muscle memory.
Learns the user's own words and phrases
adapts to how each person really talks, on-device and private, and their own utterances can be saved into clear, quick-to-reach folders.
Listening mode
Hears the partner's turn and offers ready-to-speak replies and words to keep the conversation moving.

Founder

Who is behind AAC?

Its founder, Mauricio Fontana de Vargas, holds a PhD in Human-Computer Interaction from McGill University and is the inventor of the first AAC app capable of automatically generating complete topic boards from photographs (Click AAC, 2021). That work won both the Best Paper and Best Artifact awards at ACM ASSETS, the leading conference on computing and accessibility.

He then worked with Dr. Howard Shane and Christina Yu, MSc (Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard), to transform Click AAC into QuickPic AAC, conducting research and publishing scientific papers together. QuickPic was later licensed to Attainment Company as GoTalk About It.

In 2023, Mauricio joined Meta Reality Labs as a Research Scientist, developing AI-powered systems that personalize user interfaces to each person's needs and goals. After the layoffs, he decided to apply that experience to advancing AAC technology, a field that is also deeply personal to him as the brother of a lovely, disabled person. He founded Assistive Technologies Inc. with that mission in mind.
