Spkeasy helps children practice communication where life happens.
Spkeasy combines a customizable AAC communication system with interactive activities and familiar environments. Children can practice meaningful words and phrases during meals, play, self-care, school, and other everyday routines and use those communication skills in real life.
With Spkeasy, communication is not limited to a traditional AAC grid. Children can explore familiar places, interact with everyday objects, and learn how words connect to real situations.
Get full access to Spkeasy free through December 31, 2026. No subscription or credit card is required during the free-access period.
Key Features:
Spkpad: Smart AAC Communication - Our customizable communication system uses color-coded “Spklets” to help children form phrases and express themselves. Word prediction speeds up communication and encourages language development.
Command Center - Caregiver Control Made Simple - Parents, caregivers, teachers, and speech-language pathologists can fully customize the Spkeasy experience — from grid layout to vocabulary access — making it easy to adapt the app for home, school, or therapy.
Interactive 3D Environments - Children explore a fully interactive 3D environment where touching objects teaches real vocabulary. Open a fridge, flush a toilet, turn on lights — every action reinforces language through natural exploration.
3D Avatar Creator - Let kids express themselves by designing a custom avatar with diverse skin tones, clothes, hairstyles, and accessories.
Tons of Mini-Activities - Enjoy quick activities that build vocabulary, early math, and language skills, with gorgeous 3D visuals that make learning fun.
Smart Registration - Set preferences during setup to create a personalized experience tailored to each child’s communication level and needs.
Core Vocabulary + SymbolStix - Spkeasy builds core vocabulary in context, touch an object, and related AAC spklets appear automatically using SymbolStix icons.
Advanced Navigation - Use our Map feature to teleport between rooms and environments, making the app accessible for users with various mobility levels.
Word of the Day - Introduce a new vocabulary word daily to encourage growth, especially for non-verbal and emerging speakers.
Keyboard Mode - Advanced users can type full sentences directly with our integrated keyboard, so perfect for kids who are ready to expand beyond Spklets.
Visual Customization - Adjust Spklet size, spacing, font, background color, and more to match each learner’s sensory needs and preferences.
Analytics - Parents, caregivers, teachers and SLPs have the ability to track their children's progress through detailed usage statistics. This allows them to truly understand exactly what their kids may be struggling with.
Built with Experts - Spkeasy was developed with input from speech-language pathologists, educators, and special needs professionals to ensure the best possible support for children with autism and other communication disorders.

As an SLP, I appreciate that there are integrated scene features and games to encourage engagement. The communication tool component is approaching robust. I imagine the vocabulary available will grow in time. I’m hoping for more editing features regarding appearance will be added in the future
Honest SLP review

I’ve been using this application since April. I’ve trialed it with students and clients in both the school setting and clinic setting. I like how it incorporates games in addition to the communication system. Not only are the games and activities interactive, but they have core words and vocabulary embedded which is GREAT for generalization. The one and only issue that I had in the beginning was the application crashing when loading certain activities, but that seems to have been resolved during my recent use of the application. Overall, I would recommend this application as it’s one of a kind and super engaging. I always say more AAC resources is better than less!
One-of-a-kind AAC App

I was so excited to be able to try this app. It is very different than all the others. Spkeasy has been a fun treat when it comes to learning with the kids I work with. It has made the communication process much easier and has several features that make it completely unique when compared to other apps. The interactive activities are enjoyable and keeps the children engaged while they learn. It’s much easier for the children to communicate because of the customized tiles and grid that allows you to use the words that are most commonly used. The ability to tailor the avatar is really fun as well! Overall a fantastic app!
Very Customizable!

I’ve used a variety of AAC apps with my clients and Spkeasy has been on of my favorites so far because it’s easy to customize, individualized for the speaker, and I love how you can create sentence phrases to have a back and forth conversation with another person without having to press multiple buttons! Would definitely recommend this AAC app for early learners!
