Connection before completion

When words are hard, stay connected

My Voice gives a child a small set of visual phrases chosen with a parent—like “Help me,” “I need space,” and “I’m not sure.” The child can use those essentials whether optional tokens are off or on.

A small family communication loop

The child starts. The caregiver can answer honestly.

My Voice is designed for low-pressure connection. It is not a behavior score, school assignment, reward requirement, or continuous-monitoring or emergency-response service.

Child-initiated

A child can choose a familiar visual phrase to ask for help, space, together time, or simply say they are not sure.

Chosen together

A parent can select optional choices for each child. Help, space, and not sure remain available as essential choices.

Made easier to understand

Parents can turn on spoken labels and a review-before-send step. Caregivers choose only a response they can promise.

My Voice is a limited family messaging tool. It can complement AAC and communication support selected with your child's team; it does not replace a child's AAC system, evaluation, therapy, treatment, or emergency help. A waiting or saved message does not prove that a caregiver saw it or will respond.

Caregiver answers honestly

A response is never assumed

I hear you.
I’m coming now.
I’ll check in in 5 minutes.

The caregiver selects only what is true. SteadySteps does not promise that a waiting message has been seen.

Family pilot in preparation

The public download is not open yet

We are finishing privacy, accessibility, reviewer, and real-device checks before inviting families. The learning library also stays private until every article completes its human review record.

Roadmap — not available yet

Familiar communication across two homes

SteadySteps does not yet provide a two-caregiver or two-household family space. We are planning permission-based portability so approved communication choices and accessibility preferences can follow a child without one household seeing or overwriting another household's private context.

Our product commitment

No sharing or price is offered today. Any future design must let families choose what crosses homes and complete authorization, privacy, accessibility, and pricing review before launch.
