New AI features are coming to Grid
These new online features are designed to make communication smoother, faster, and more authentic for AAC users. Fix tool AI voices Preview these new features below. Research conducted by Smartbox, in partnership with the ALS Association, has highlighted that a major challenge for people using text AAC is correcting typing errors. Our research found that fixing mistakes took up as much as a third of the time people spent composing their message, significantly slowing down communication. One of the simplest and most effective ways we identified AI could help is by reducing these errors, allowing users to communicate faster – saying what they want, with confidence. Grid will soon include integration for ElevenLabs voices, providing even more choice for users to select a high-quality, authentic voice, with powerful AI.
