An app that helps people with speech disabilities communicate raising funds at Indiegogo

Talkitt app

Talkitt is an innovative solution that enables people who have motor, speech, and language disorders to easily communicate using their own voice. The software, which will initially be available on mobile phones and tablets, translates unintelligible pronunciation from any language into understandable speech:

Approximately 1.5% of the world’s population live with speech disabilities caused by a variety of medical conditions such as ALS, Cerebral Palsy, Stroke, Brain Damage, Autism and Parkinson’s Disease.

Talkitt recognizes the user’s vocal patterns and “speaks” their words in an understandable language, allowing these individuals to communicate clearly and easily with anyone in any language. It doesn’t matter if you speak French, Chinese, Klingon, or anything in between – with Talkitt, you can communicate.

Presuming the company manages to reach the $50,000 goal at Indiegogo, it will launch the mobile app, and eventually make the same software available on PCs, laptops and wearable devices, further extending the capability. If you want to help, you can contribute as little as $10; however, the Early Bird Talkitt goes for $36.
