## What is Phonomate?

Phonomate is a speech therapy app packed with engaging, voice-powered games designed to help children master their speech sounds. Using real-time speech recognition, the games respond to what children say, transforming speech practice from repetitive drills into interactive play.

Designed for speech-language pathologists, parents, and students, Phonomate combines motivating gameplay with powerful progress-monitoring tools, making it easy to practice, track growth, and celebrate success.

FOUR TYPES OF PRACTICE, ELEVEN GAMES

Auditory Discrimination — Feed the Robot

Before a child can produce a sound correctly, they need to hear the difference. Feed the Robot helps children learn to distinguish between target sounds by listening carefully and feeding the hungry robot the correct meal.

Minimal Pairs — Lizard Log, Run Rabbit, Bye Monster, Bag of Fruit, Over the Moon, Puzzle Splash

These games use word pairs that differ by just one sound, helping children connect what they hear with what they say. Say the correct word to make the action happen!

Custom Word Practice — Gummy Jump, Snowman Builder

Choose a speech sound and word position (initial, medial, or final), then select from expert-curated word lists or enter your own custom targets. The app listens in real time, and correct productions advance the game, keeping children engaged and motivated.

Shaping & Placement Practice — Rising Lava, Bus Stop

These games help children learn accurate placement for challenging sounds. Rising Lava uses real-time acoustic analysis to provide feedback on /r/ productions, while Bus Stop uses a live camera view to help children monitor tongue placement for /s/.

BUILT FOR THERAPY
• Voice-Powered Gameplay: Correct productions trigger actions in the game.
• Expert Word Lists: Hundreds of targets organized by sound and word position.
• Custom Word Practice: Enter your own target words for personalized sessions.
• Progress Monitoring: Automatically track accuracy and measure growth over time.
• SLP Dashboard: Students can connect with their speech-language pathologist, allowing clinicians to review practice data and monitor progress remotely.
• Roster & Session Management: Organize your caseload, switch between students during sessions, and keep practice data separated by user.
• Designed by an SLP: Built specifically for speech sound intervention and therapy.

Phonomate turns speech practice into play while giving clinicians the tools they need to monitor progress, support carryover, and make every repetition count.
