Talk To Me Technologies

Talk To Me Technologies Speech-generating devices for children and adults, with the widest variety of access options.

Based in Cedar Falls, IA - Talk To Me Technologies opened its doors in 2006 by providing technology that allows those with disabilities to ‘speak’ in a synthesized voice when they tap symbols or type on an on-screen keyboard. The company has also been a national leader in providing eye-gaze technology, which allows those with limited physical
control to speak and control their home electronics (lights, TV, phone and more) by selecting on-screen options with their eyes). Connecting through school districts, medical clinics, veteran care facilities and individual family requests, Talk To Me Technologies’ team of speech-language pathologists and AAC Consultants work with each individual’s team to assess their communication and physical needs before pairing clients with their own personalized system. The company also
helps assess alternate methods of access and offers training
to help clients begin speaking with their new voice in their
day-to-day life. Talk To Me Technologies regularly provides in-services and training at health care facilities and schools throughout the country. Talk To Me Technologies complies with applicable Federal civil rights laws and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, or s*x.

In this post, we’re sharing voices from across our AAC community: from users, families, and carers who know just how life-changing it can be to have a way to express yourself.

These stories show that AAC isn’t just about making requests, it’s about connection, identity and being heard.

When language is always available, so is opportunity.

Communication Boards create language-rich environments where everyone can express themselves, take part in decisions and connect with others.

Whether in a park, corridor, or classroom, they promote interaction, reduce frustration and support lifelong communication skills.

The best part? They benefit everyone, not just those who use AAC.

We’re currently offering 20% off standard Communication Boards from October 1-31, as part of AAC Awareness Month.

Ever struggled to ask for something in a noisy cafe, classroom, or hospital?

Now imagine not having access to communication at all. For many AAC users, public spaces can present real barriers to communication, especially when a device isn’t nearby or practical to use.

That’s where Communication Boards come in. Visible and easy to access, they support quick, functional communication in the moments that matter most.

As part of AAC Awareness Month, we’re offering 20% off standard Communication Boards from October 1-31, helping more schools, hospitals and community settings become inclusive, communication-friendly spaces.
