You became an SLP for the therapy. Not the paperwork. SLPcentral is the all-in-one app for speech-language pathologists at every stage of the journey — from undergraduate CSD students logging their first observation hours to licensed clinicians managing a full caseload. Built by an SLP who lived the workload, not a software vendor guessing at it. ONE APP THAT GROWS WITH YOU • Undergraduate students: track your 25 ASHA observation hours, organize coursework, and learn the field with a built-in reference library. • Graduate students: track all 400 clinical hours with disorder-area breakdowns, manage classes and deadlines on a unified calendar, and get help drafting SOAP notes. • Licensed SLPs: manage your caseload, collect live session data trial-by-trial, track IEP goals, and draft progress reports in a fraction of the time. TWO WAYS TO A SOAP NOTE Run live data during the session and let the app draft a note from the numbers — or just talk. Brain Dump lets you describe the session in your own words afterward and drafts the note from what you said. Every AI draft is clearly marked "DRAFT — review before saving." The app assists; you stay the clinician. PRIVACY BUILT IN Client names never touch our servers — they're stored encrypted on your device only. Everything the app sends to the cloud uses random codes, never names. The app supports your HIPAA and FERPA obligations with on-device identity, auto-lock, and de-identified AI. (SLPcentral is a tool that helps you meet your obligations — you remain responsible for compliance in your setting.) LIVE SESSION DATA COLLECTION Big check/X targets, swipe between clients in a group, running accuracy per goal, and an instant progress graph the moment you finish. Designed to be used one-handed, in the room, with a kid in front of you. TRACK THE WHOLE JOURNEY Observation hours, clinical hours, Clinical Fellowship hours (1,260 with the ASHA breakdowns) — the milestones that are scattered across spreadsheets and portals, finally in one place. FREE FOR STUDENTS, ALWAYS Undergraduate and graduate hour tracking is free — no trial, no paywall, no catch. Your 25 observation hours and your 400 clinical hours are yours to track for nothing. SLPCENTRAL PRO — FOR LICENSED CLINICIANS Unlimited caseload, live session data collection, and AI-assisted drafting. • $14.99 per month, or $149.99 per year (about $12.50/month) • 7-day free trial • Cancel anytime in your iPhone's Settings Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
