Tools to solve everyday problems and promote independence
For communication disorders
Pictalk communication allows speaking through a synthetic voice and a pictogram binder.
For behavioral and organizational issues
CAA Agenda allows you to visualize the day with a visual schedule.
To facilitate the work of caregivers and professionals
Creator CAA allows you to create resources with pictograms easily.
At Pictalk, we design solutions to address the challenges faced by individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, their families, and the professionals who support them. Our applications are designed to improve communication, reduce frustrations and behavioral issues, and foster autonomy.
Why Work with Pictalk?
Reducing Crises and Facilitating Daily Life
The inability to communicate one's needs or to understand upcoming events can lead to significant frustrations, anxiety, and in some cases, crises. Pictalk applications provide concrete solutions:
- Allow clear and intuitive communication through pictograms.
- Help structure the day with visual routines to anticipate activities.
- Reduce anxiety related to unpredictability by providing temporal references and appropriate notifications.
Promoting Autonomy with Clear Routines
Mathis, a young adult with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), still relies heavily on his parents for daily tasks. With Agenda AAC, Mathis receives timely notifications and is guided step by step with visuals and a synthesized voice. This helps him carry out tasks independently, such as brushing his teeth.
Supporting work in adapted environments
Mathilde works in a sheltered workshop in green spaces. Thanks to Agenda AAC, she can anticipate the tools she will need and the place of intervention. This reduces her stress and increases her productivity.
"The diary allows the person to gain autonomy. We use the same images as on the Pictalk application which is a real support in communication and the expression of speech. Since using it, the person I support has really gained in expression, in self-confidence, people consider them more"

Pictalk Agenda CAA, autonomy for everyone
An application tailored to the needs of ESMS
We co-designed Agenda with professionals from the TechLab of APF France Handicap. We then tested our initial version with caregivers and healthcare professionals during two workshops organized by Digimentally. This development process allows Agenda to address the challenges of people with neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as the constraints of professionals and caregivers.
Anxiety Reduction and Autonomy Support
The Agenda AAC application, developed in collaboration with Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users, uses advanced digital technologies to help structure the day. It reduces anxiety by providing visual and temporal references, tailored to the needs of people with intellectual disabilities or DYS disorders.
