Miravl — communication board

    Tap a word.

    Silent demo — the real voice comes with the app.

    Three refusals

    • We will never take your voice away.

      Bought once, in the app store. No account with us, no countdown, no ads. Nothing locks, and nothing you can already say stops working.

    • The vocabulary is yours.

      It is saved in an open format you can read. You can take it out of the app at any time, and that never costs anything.

    • Nothing leaves the device.

      There is no server and no account. Miravl works exactly the same with the phone in airplane mode.

    Not just requests. Relationships.

    A child can ask for juice and still have no way to tell their mother they are frightened. The words for closeness are only learned if they are on the board.

    To ask for something

    • I want
    • I eat
    • I drink
    • help
    • stop
    • toilet

    Miravl has all of these from day one.

    To be close to someone

    • I miss you
    • that was funny
    • I had a bad dream
    • leave me alone

    And it has these too. Both of them are speech.

    Built for the language, not translated into it

    A word can change shape depending on who is speaking and what they are speaking about. Miravl changes the shape for you — you pick the word, never its form.

    Eu vreau apă

    Change the person

    casă frumoasă

    Change the noun

    The two panels here are Romanian — „I want water", „a beautiful house" — where the ending of a word changes with the person speaking and with the noun beside it. The board at the top of this page is English, and it has its own work to do: „I am sad", „mum goes", and „nice house" from a house tapped before a nice. A board cannot be relabelled from one language into another. Every form has to be written into the app, word by word, for each language it speaks.

    Your home becomes the first vocabulary

    Photograph your own kitchen, your grandmother's living room, the classroom. Touch the things in the photo and they speak. The first words are the things a child walks past every day.

    A kitchen: a woman at the table, a steaming cup and a window.

    The photo stays on your device. It has nowhere to go — Miravl has no server.

    The voice

    Four voices to begin with: two child, two adult. All of them included.

    • Child, younger

      For the early years. Unhurried and clear.

    • Child, older

      For school age, a little quicker.

    • Adult, woman

      Warm, for everyday speech.

    • Adult, man

      Even, without a regional accent.

    And the child chooses, not only the parent.

    Someone with no words can still prefer one sound over another. The voice can be changed from inside the app at any time, and it never costs anything.

    The voices play inside the app. We haven't put them here yet — we would rather not hand you a synthetic voice as the sample.

    Three ways to speak

    One app, three ways to use it. You pick what fits now and change it when the need changes.

    • Grid

      For non-speaking autistic children and for anyone building language.

      Symbols, core vocabulary, and it grows with them over years.

    • Keyboard

      For adults who have lost speech: stroke and aphasia, ALS/MND, laryngectomy.

      Fast typing, prediction, saved phrases.

    • Cards

      For temporary or situational loss: ICU and post-op, selective mutism, autistic shutdown.

      Ready on day one, with nothing to set up.

    Touch · press and hold · switch scanning · head tracking — all included, always.

    Pricing

    One price, paid once. The same app wherever you are.

    $59. Once.

    Not a subscription. It does not expire.

    Every word, every voice, the scenes from your own photos, backup and every access method — all of it is included.

    Lifetime is the real product. The yearly plan exists only for budgets that cannot approve a one-off.

    The yearly plan is there if $59 at once isn't possible right now.

    Miravl is bought in Google Play and the App Store. It isn't published there yet, so there is nowhere to buy it for now.

    Email me when it's out

    We write once, on the day it lands. Nothing else.

    Can't afford it?

    Write to us — tell us who it's for and we'll send you a code.

    We don't ask about money and there is nothing to prove. A speech and language therapist can write to us instead, if that is easier. The code is redeemed in the store, when you install it.

    Paid or not: the vocabulary stays yours — you can use it, read it and export it whenever you want.

    If we ever stop, we open-source it. Nobody is left without a voice because of us.

    What Miravl doesn't do yet

    Some things aren't finished and some things we haven't checked. We keep all of them in one place, written plainly.
