Bedtime story — the island adventure
The four of them rowed out to the island, with Scout barking at the waves. Inside the cave, Jo’s torch lit up an old wooden chest. “Treasure,” whispered Ben. “Real treasure!” But behind them, something moved in the dark…

About
Type words, not keys.
I’m Ravi. I was diagnosed with ALS in 2019. Clicks are precious when you type with your eyes or a head mouse. I want each one to carry more of what I mean to say.
Saved phrases and simple text expansion only go so far. A conversation keeps moving: you respond, change your mind, make a joke, say something you’ve never said before. Your communication app needs to move with you.
September is my attempt to build a dynamic, fully customizable AAC alternative around that need. The goal is to help you choose words and shape whole thoughts with fewer keystrokes, in your own voice, on your own terms.
