Find your words again.

Speech practice at home for adults after a stroke. Ten calm minutes a day, in English, Arabic, Hindi or Russian, with the words and pictures of your own life.

Start practising

Supports speech therapy. Never replaces it.

One card at a time.

Hear it.

Every instruction and every word can be played again, slowly if you like.

Tap it, or say it.

Choose a picture, or say the word out loud. speehab listens and tells you what it heard.

Ask for help.

Help gives the first sound, then the first letter, then the whole word. A miss is never red.

Your language, your life.

The words for tea, bread and home should feel like yours. speehab chooses words, names and pictures for each language and culture, and Arabic reads right to left.

Why practise at home?

About 1 in 3 stroke survivors has aphasia.
20 to 50 hours of therapy is linked to the best gains. Most services can offer 60 to 90 minutes a week.
The hours in between are where home practice lives.

For the person who is there every day.

You don’t have to be a therapist. Sit together, give the words time, and let them set the pace. With their OK, you can see how practice is going on your own phone, without the scores unless they choose to share them.

For families

For speech therapists.

A summary you can read in a minute: the sounds practised, the phrases that keep failing, and your own observations. Suggest a change to the practice mix; the person or their consent holder decides.

Questions families ask.

Is speehab speech therapy?: No. It is a practice companion that works alongside a speech therapist. It does not diagnose or treat.
Does the person need to use a computer well?: No. The app uses big buttons, pictures and spoken instructions.
Can I use it with my therapist?: Yes. Always follow your therapist’s advice.
