Expressive Go is a user-friendly, customizable AAC app that empowers non-speaking individuals to communicate effortlessly. Expressive Go is now completely free, making it easier than ever for families and professionals to access the tools needed to foster communication.
Speech is one of the primary ways we communicate, but for individuals who are non-speaking or have difficulty with speech, expressing thoughts and needs can be challenging. Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)refers to tools and methods that support or replace speech, helping individuals communicate more effectively. An AAC app like Expressive Go uses visual symbols, text, and speech-generating features to give non-speaking individuals a voice. With just a tap, users can select symbols or words to generate speech, making everyday communication smoother and more accessible for families, educators, and caregivers.

This initiative involves a two-pronged strategy with specific goals:
1. Expand Communication Boards: Led by Smarty Symbols, the first phase aims to increase the number of public spaces featuring communication boards.
2. Promote Speech-Generating Apps: Spearheaded by Smarty Ears, the second phase is focused on raising awareness and accessibility to speech-generating systems through our app.
Imagine a family visiting a playground that has partnered with Smarty Symbols to install communication boards. Now, not only does the child feel acknowledged and empowered to communicate, but the family also gains awareness of AAC systems. They even get the opportunity to download their first speech-generating app, Expressive Go, developed by our partner Smarty Ears.
