BabelDeck vs My Words

Describe the day — BabelDeck draws it. BabelDeck makes visual support in under a minute. Tell it what's happening — a morning, a dentist visit, a new routine — and get a finished picture schedule with images that actually fit. When the day changes, redo it in ten seconds. Visual support means showing, with pictures, what's hard to say or remember. It makes the abstract concrete, the day predictable, and communication possible — when words don't come. WHAT YOU CAN MAKE • Picture schedules and daily plans, step by step • Communication boards and cards to point at • First-then cards for transitions • Choice boards and emotion charts • Social stories for new situations • Text-to-speech — tap a picture, hear the word AI THAT HELPS, NOT TAKES OVER Can't find the right picture? Describe it and BabelDeck draws it — in a calm, clear, consistent style. No more hunting for symbols. FOR FAMILIES AND PROFESSIONALS For parents, siblings, and partners making the day make sense. And for preschools, schools, clinics, and speech-language pathologists who need to go from idea to finished material fast. No training. No fuss. MADE WITH AND FOR People with autism, ADHD and other neurodevelopmental conditions, language disorders, intellectual disabilities, aphasia after stroke, dementia — and anyone who understands better with pictures, including new language learners. ACCESSIBLE FROM THE GROUND UP Clear layout, high contrast, adjustable text size, and plain language. Print your schedules when a screen isn't the right fit. PRICING Free to start: 2 boards and AI images to try, no card needed. Plus: $4.99/month for unlimited boards, 30 AI images a month, and priority support. Visual support for everyone who needs to see language — not only hear it. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.babeldeck.com/en/terms Privacy Policy: https://www.babeldeck.com/en/privacy

My Words is an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) app designed for non-verbal individuals, including those with autism, apraxia, cerebral palsy, or any condition that makes spoken communication difficult. It turns an iPhone or iPad into a powerful voice output communication aid. **How It Works** Tap any picture button and the app speaks the word or phrase out loud using natural-sounding AI voices. Large, colorful buttons are easy to see and tap — even for users with fine motor challenges. **Natural AI Voices** My Words uses advanced AI text-to-speech so communication sounds natural and expressive, not robotic. Choose from multiple voices across two AI providers, or use the built-in iOS voice for offline use: • Groq Orpheus voices: Autumn, Diana, Hannah, Austin, Daniel, Troy • OpenAI voices: Alloy, Echo, Fable, Onyx, Nova, Shimmer • System voice: works completely offline **Fully Customizable** Every button can be personalized to match the user's daily needs: • Add new buttons with any photo from your camera roll • Edit the label, spoken phrase, and background color of any button • Replace the default pictures with photos of real objects from your home • Delete buttons that aren't needed • Rearrange buttons to put the most-used ones first **Designed for Accessibility** • Extra-large buttons fill the screen for easy tapping • High-contrast colored borders make each button distinct • Visual feedback when a button is speaking • Works on both iPhone and iPad • Supports portrait and landscape orientations **Privacy First** My Words does not collect, store, or share any personal data. Photos you add stay on your device. Voice requests are processed securely and not stored by the AI providers. My Words is built with love for families, caregivers, teachers, and therapists who support non-verbal individuals every day.
