About ALSChat
ALSChat is a free AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) letter board for people living with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), motor neuron disease (MND), locked-in syndrome, and other progressive motor disabilities. Type by tapping, or hands-free by blinking — ALSChat adapts as your mobility changes so you can always find your voice. KEY FEATURES • Manual Letter Board Tap letters, words, and phrases directly. Large, high-contrast buttons make every target easy to hit. • Semi-Automatic Blink Scanning The board highlights each spot in turn. Close your eyes for about half a second to select — no touch needed. Adjust the scan speed to match your pace. Blink detection runs entirely on your device; camera images are never uploaded. • Word Suggestions Suggested words appear as you type, so every message takes fewer selections. • Text-to-Speech Speak your message aloud instantly with your device's built-in voices. • Caregiver Chat Invite family and caregivers with a link. Send messages from the letter board and get notifications on their phones — even when the app is closed. • Quick Phrases Common phrases — greetings, requests, urgent needs — are ready as one-tap chips in every language. • Message History Everything you speak is saved on your device. Reopen any past message with a tap, and words you've used before are suggested first. • 12 Languages Korean, English, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Arabic, German, Vietnamese, Russian, Chinese, and Hindi. WHO IS ALSCHAT FOR? • People living with ALS or motor neuron disease (MND) • Individuals with locked-in syndrome or spinal cord injury • People with Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, or stroke-related aphasia • Caregivers, family members, and speech-language pathologists (SLPs) WHY ALSCHAT? Dedicated AAC devices can cost thousands of dollars. ALSChat is free, runs on the iPhone or iPad you already have, and needs no extra hardware — just the front camera for blink scanning. ABOUT ALSCHAT ALSChat is developed by NeoChat Co., Ltd, a team dedicated to improving quality of life through accessible communication technology. We build based on real feedback from patients, caregivers, and clinicians. Download ALSChat free today.
