Proloquo2Go in action: Learn and grow Studies show that just 200-400 words make up 80% of what we say.

Our mission is to have an accessible tool that is user friendly, simple to use and effective in the teaching of Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) Visuals2Go is an ALL-IN-ONE Educational app created to support people with communication and learning difficulties. Research shows that Augmentative and Assistive Communication systems are highly beneficial for people who are non-verbal or have difficulties with speech. Visuals2Go is designed to support you as an Educator, Therapist, Support Worker or Parent so that you can give the person in your care a voice.

The app has a Simple-to-use interface and beautifully designed images that will encourage regular access to communication and learning.
