Free communication app for autistic adults
Most AAC apps are built for non-verbal children. Autistic adults have entirely different needs — workplace scripts, medical appointments, burnout support, setting limits. Voxetu addresses all of these, free, on any phone.
Why autistic adults need different tools from children's AAC
Children's AAC apps offer
- Picture symbol boards
- Basic needs vocabulary
- Simple yes/no responses
- Designed for therapy rooms
Autistic adults actually need
- Workplace conversation scripts
- Medical appointment scripts
- Burnout and overload phrases
- Conflict de-escalation tools
- Phone call support
- Setting limits and boundaries
Voxetu modes for autistic adults
💬
Social Scripting Most used by autistic adults
Pre-written scripts for situations that cause anxiety — workplace requests, medical appointments, setting limits, handling conflict, phone calls. Tap any script and Voxetu speaks it aloud. Editable placeholders. Hindi and English.
😊
Emotion board
28 illustrated faces from "I am in sensory overload" to "I need quiet time." For autistic adults who know what they feel but cannot find words during shutdown or burnout.
⌨️
AAC keyboard with word prediction
Type a message and Voxetu speaks it at full volume. For non-speaking episodes, loud environments, or when verbal communication becomes temporarily unavailable.
✋
Yes / No mode
Two full-screen buttons. Fast, unambiguous, zero cognitive load. For overload, meltdown, or shutdown when even single words are too much.
📊
Support person dashboard
Share communication patterns with a therapist, job coach, or trusted person. They see what you communicated, when, and in which mode — without needing to be present.

Real autistic adults using Voxetu
Autistic adult, age 27 — Software developer, Bengaluru
I am autistic and verbal but I go non-speaking during stressful meetings. My manager did not understand why I would suddenly go quiet. I showed him the Voxetu keyboard — now when I go non-speaking I type and the app speaks for me. He treats it like any other accessibility tool. It changed my work life. — Rahul S.
Autistic adult, age 34 — Delhi
Phone calls are my biggest barrier. I freeze completely. With Voxetu's social scripting I have ready scripts for calling the bank, the doctor, and my landlord. I read from the screen when I cannot form words spontaneously. It is the difference between managing and not managing. — Anonymous
Parent of autistic adult, age 22 — Mumbai
My son is autistic and has a part-time job. When he has a difficult day he uses the emotion board to tell me exactly what happened — he taps 😤 I am frustrated then 😰 I feel anxious. Before Voxetu he would shut down and I would not know if he was okay. Now I know. — Mother

Frequently asked questions
Is Voxetu useful for autistic adults who can already speak?
Yes — many autistic adults who can speak find that verbal communication becomes unreliable during overload, meltdown, or burnout. Voxetu's keyboard and scripting modes give a reliable backup channel that works even when speech does not. You are not always non-speaking, but you need something reliable for when you are.
Can I use Voxetu at work without it looking obvious?
Yes — Voxetu looks like a regular messaging app on your phone. The keyboard mode is especially discreet. Many users show their employer the support dashboard as part of arranging a workplace accessibility accommodation, which is often easier to explain with data than with words.
Does Voxetu have scripts in Hindi for autistic adults in India?
Yes — all social scripts, the emotion board, and the AAC keyboard are available in Hindi and English. Switch between languages at any time. Scripts for workplace situations, medical appointments, and daily communication are all available in Hindi.
How is this different from Voxetu's autism page for children?
The
children's autism page focuses on symbol boards and gamified AAC learning for non-verbal children. This page focuses on social scripting, burnout support, and workplace communication for adults on the spectrum. Completely different tools for completely different needs.
