From Practice

What users and caregivers say

I don’t have to explain everything over and over because Bobbai helps clarify what I mean during the conversation.
It helps when a suitable suggestion is already ready. Then responding takes much less time and energy.
We weren’t looking for a standard solution but something that really works at home, on the go, and in therapy.

An AI speech app that makes room for your conversation

After aphasia or other acquired brain injuries, communication often changes from person to person and even from moment to moment. Some mainly need help finding words, others with starting conversations, following along, speaking out, or handling stimuli.

Bobbai was developed to provide customized support. Not as a standard tool that works the same for everyone, but as personal assistance that adapts to someone's style, pace, and daily situations. Simply on a familiar phone or tablet.

Let's look together at what fits

  • A calm introduction for the user, loved ones, and caregivers
  • Practical support with initial setup and the home screen
  • Coordination with the speech therapist or care team if desired

How does Bobbai help you?

Three forms of support that reinforce each other

Bobbai listens along with the conversation and understands you and the context. Based on that, the AI quickly offers personal suggestions that fit your way of communicating.

1

Active Listening

Bobbai can listen along and read along with what is being said. This keeps the context clearer and makes it easier to follow and join the conversation.

2

Smart Suggestions

The app thinks along and offers suggestions that fit the conversation, your preferences, and your way of responding. This helps with finding words, pacing, and taking initiative.

3

Natural Speech

What you want to say can be spoken aloud by Bobbai. This makes responding less demanding and keeps communication possible in a way that feels understandable and personal.

Practicing together

Speaking together, learning together

Together with the user, loved ones, and where appropriate the speech therapist, we look at what support makes sense. This could include practicing conversations at home, in a store, during appointments, or other moments that are challenging in daily life.

Lifechaingers trains speech therapists and collaborates with professionals who learn to use Bobbai for aphasia and NAH. This means the user doesn’t have to figure it out alone, and the support can better align with therapy, rehabilitation, and home situations.

That support doesn’t always have to stay the same. If rehabilitation is effective or skills return, Bobbai can provide less support and adapt to what the person needs at that moment.

Costs

What does Bobbai cost for aphasia or NAH?

Costs depend on the process and the customization needed. Think of the desired guidance, setup, training, coordination with caregivers, and any additional requests regarding controls or speech (with your own voice). That’s why we don’t offer a standard package for everyone. We prefer to make a concrete estimate based on the person, their needs, and the context in which Bobbai will be used.

Lifechaingers is working hard to broaden reimbursement for Bobbai, but currently Bobbai is not yet routinely covered by health insurance. People usually pay part privately, through a personal budget or injury insurance. Some care or rehabilitation centers also offer Bobbai because its added value is already significant. We work closely with leading experts and speech therapists. The costs for that support are usually fully reimbursed.
