What is evolving for you in 2025 with Pictalk
Life notebook: coming soon
We want to add a life notebook to the CAA Agenda very soon!
In this life notebook, you will be able to include: Images, pictograms, as well as videos and even audio recordings. Additionally, you will have a text-to-speech feature that will allow non-verbal individuals to tell their life stories and let us know who they are.
We know that life notebooks and liaison notebooks are already used in paper format by individuals and professionals in institutions. To save time, we have integrated sharing features where multiple people can write in the same notebook.
Event and sequence creation made easier
You have probably already noticed that artificial intelligence has become a major topic in recent years and so far, it has barely benefited the disability sector. Thus, we want to change that. It represents a major advancement in our applications.
Some features are already available in the CAA Agenda application (in creating sequences and events by clicking on the multicolored button).
Enter a title, and the AI automatically generates the associated tasks with suitable images, pictograms, and descriptions.
Complete redesign of Pictalk communication
This year, we focused on the CAA Agenda, as there were no other adapted agenda applications with pictograms. In 2025, we have new ambitions for Pictalk communication, formerly Pictalk AAC.
Here is the list addressing the major changes planned:
Profile system | A single account can contain multiple profiles. Facilitates use in institutions |
Profile sharing | Profiles can be shared between caregivers, families, and professionals |
Integrated grammar correction | Automatic spelling and conjugation correction in French (first supported language) |
Facilitated theme creation | 10 recommended themes available at launch |
Pictogram and grid positioning | Easily move images with intuitive and precise positioning |
Language progression and skill tracking | Analysis of vocabulary usage and vocabulary suggestions. A simple and accessible tracking interface directly from the application |
Integration of the Agenda and Life Notebook | An integration of routine, events, and the life notebook |
Reduction of major bugs | No more missing collections, sharing issues, or synchronization problems. This version brings unprecedented stability |
