Pip
The AAC app built around your child

Your child's voice shouldn't cost $300.

And it should never be rented by the month.

Pip is a complete AAC app that you shape around your child. Your people, your photos, your words. Every built-in word speaks, free, forever. When the whole family wants in, it's $49 once. Never a subscription.

Create your child's board — free

Type your child's name. Sixty seconds later, they're saying "I want an apple." No credit card. Nothing is ever taken away.

  • Free forever
  • $49 once, never monthly
  • Every helper free
  • SLPs free
  • Works offline
Mimi. Biscuit. Trains. Her words, on her board. = added by her family in seconds.

You were told your child needs a voice. Then you saw the price.

The SLP says your child would benefit from AAC. You go home and look it up.

$249.99. $299.99. Or $9.99 a month, every month, for as long as your child needs to talk. Some families are told to wait months for an evaluation, a funding request, a device.

All that time, your child has things to say.

And when the app finally arrives, it's the same app every other child gets. Same layout. Same pictures. Same "someone else knows best."

Your child isn't every other child.

They decided your child should have the same app as everyone else.

The biggest names in AAC have a philosophy: every communicator should learn the same board, laid out their way, and families shouldn't change it. Their newest app takes it all the way: a board you can't customize.

They call it consistency. We call it what it is: a company deciding it knows your child better than you do.

It doesn't.

Your daughter calls her grandmother Mimi. Your son's whole world right now is trains. Your child needs stop bigger, help closer, and the dog on the first screen. No template knows that.

You do.

At Pip, mom knows best.

Dad, Grandma, the SLP, and the teacher who sees your child every day know best too. Pip starts with a great board designed from research on the words children use most. Then it's yours. Put any word in any spot. Add your people with your photos. Record your own voice for a word. What you add beats our defaults everywhere, including suggestions.

See our method: "Your child is not a template"

"But the buttons shouldn't move." We agree. Completely.

Kids learn where words live, the way your fingers know where the keys are. Moving them breaks that. The big apps use this as their reason to lock everything down. They're mixing up two different things.

Frozen means you can't move anything either.

Their board

Stable means nothing moves on its own.

Your child's board

Same spots. Same motor memory. Her words.

Words never jump around.

Pip's next-word suggestions live in their own strip at the top. The board underneath stays exactly where your child's hands learned it.

Pip never acts on a guess.

It never hides a word or clears a sentence because it thinks your child is done. Your child always has every word they had a second ago.

Grow without starting over.

Go from 15 words to 30, 60, or 90 when they're ready. The words they know stay where their hands expect them.

15
30
60
90

And Pip is not frozen. When you decide a word should move, it moves.

Only in Pip

Your child taps the words. Pip handles the grammar.

Kids who use AAC often tap the short version: "Mimi go park." One tap turns it into the sentence they meant, in the tense they meant, out loud.

Mimi go park
  • Fix it"Mimi goes to the park."
  • Question"Is Mimi going to the park?"
  • Past"Mimi went to the park."
  • Future"Mimi is going to the park."

Every tap speaks the new sentence out loud. The buttons never move.

Any sentence, with feeling.

Happy, sad, or angry, one tap on a face. A furious "go away" finally sounds furious.

No picture? Pip draws one.

Type a new word and Pip draws its picture in the same friendly style as the rest of the board.

Everything your child needs to say. Everything you need to help.

Model from your phone. Never grab the iPad.

Kids learn to talk by hearing talk all around them. Tap a word on your phone and it glows on your child's iPad across the room. You show them how, and the iPad stays theirs.

Grandma's on the board in ten seconds.

Type her name, snap her photo, done. No photo? Pip finds a picture that fits, or draws one in the same friendly style as the rest of the board.

Walk into the IEP meeting with proof.

Pip shows which words your child says on their own and which still need a prompt, week by week. One tap makes the report. The weekly win card is free.

Spotlight this week's words.

Pick the words you're practicing. They glow and the rest dim, but nothing is ever turned off. Your child can still say anything.

Talks without Wi-Fi.

In the car, at Grandma's, on the plane. Every word speaks with no connection. Your child's voice never waits for a signal.

The whole team, on their own devices.

Parents, grandparents, the SLP, the teacher: everyone adds words from their own phone or laptop, and the iPad has them the same day. If the iPad breaks, scan your child's card on a new one and everything comes back. Backup is free.

One price per child. Every adult helper is free. SLPs never pay. Schools: 50% off 20 or more.

Our promise: nothing is ever taken away.

Not a trial. Not a countdown. A word your child has keeps speaking whether you ever pay or not. A voice is not rented.

For speech-language pathologists

Start AAC in the first session. The family has it tonight.

Build the board on your laptop during the session. Email the family a card. They scan it at home, and you keep adding words from the office. Free for you, free for the family to start.

How Pip works for SLPs
  1. Session: the SLP builds Maya's board
  2. Maya's card is emailed home
  3. Mom scans it on Maya's iPad
  4. "Mimi!" at dinner

Pip never listens.

No microphone, ever, unless you choose to record a word. No ads. No selling anything about your child. This website doesn't even have a tracker.

Questions parents ask us.

Is it really free? What's the catch?

Every built-in word speaks, free, forever. You also get 20 words of your own, your child's device plus one helper, backup, all voices, and feelings. If you want more, it's $49 once. That's the whole catch.

What does $49 get me?

Unlimited words of your own, every helper on the team, the full progress dashboard and report, and 300 drawings. Once. Forever.

Will you ever make it a subscription?

No. A voice is not rented. And nothing your child already has is ever taken away, whether you pay or not.

Will the buttons move around?

Never on their own. Suggestions live in a strip at the top; the board stays put. You decide if a word moves.

Can I make it look and sound like our family?

Yes. Put any word in any spot. Add your people with your photos and their real names. Record your own voice for any word. What you add beats our defaults everywhere.

Does it work on our iPad?

Yes. Pip runs on the iPad you already have, or any device with a modern browser. Tap Create your child's board and you're in. No download, no account to start, and once it's open it speaks every word without Wi-Fi.

Is $49 per child or per family?

Per child: the person who speaks. Every adult helper is free, however many there are.

I'm an SLP. Do I pay?

Never. Set up as many clients as you like, and each family starts free.
