Overview
Lingraphica provides augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tools for adults with aphasia, including dedicated speech-generating devices (AllTalk, TouchTalk, MiniTalk), mobile apps (SmallTalk series), online therapy, and community programs. Its devices and apps enable real-time conversation, language practice, and access to news, while the Hub platform combines communication, therapy, and social features with telehealth support for remote sessions. Lingraphica differentiates itself through a long history dating back to 1983, Medicare reimbursement starting in 2001, and an integrated ecosystem led by co-founder Dr. Richard Steele. Its goal is to improve communication and quality of life, reduce isolation, and expand access to care through healthcare systems and teletherapy.
