The challenge

Communication recovery needs support beyond the clinic.

For people navigating aphasia after a stroke or brain injury, practice often continues at home, between sessions, and in everyday conversations. Speech Forward — developed with input from a speech-language pathologist — creates a calm, structured space for guided practice, progress tracking, and meaningful communication support.

Practice can feel overwhelming

Home practice needs structure, encouragement, and clear next steps that feel manageable in daily life.

Progress can be hard to see

Small gains matter, but they are easy to miss without a calm way to track and celebrate improvement.

Support is often scattered

Users, clinicians, caregivers, and loved ones need shared visibility around goals, needs, and wins.

Core pillars

Designed for steady, meaningful progress.

P

Practice

Guided activities for speech, language, comprehension, and real-world communication.

C

Communicate

Tools that support everyday conversations and help users express needs, thoughts, and feelings.

T

Track Progress

Simple visual progress tracking that celebrates small wins and helps users stay motivated.

S

Stay Connected

Support for clinicians, caregivers, and loved ones to stay aligned around goals and progress.

Accessibility

Accessible by design.

Speech Forward should prioritize clarity, large touch targets, readable layouts, simple language, and calm interactions so users can focus on communication rather than navigating complicated software.
