FreeSpeech is the only app that teaches grammar through pictures. Children build sentences by arranging visual tiles — and FreeSpeech converts them into grammatically correct English, spoken aloud. No memorizing rules. No worksheets. Just language, made visual.
Free to download. Full 14-day trial. No credit card required.
Tap or drag picture tiles representing words, actions, and concepts onto the grid. FreeSpeech includes a rich vocabulary of symbols covering nouns, verbs, adjectives, prepositions, and abstract concepts like tense and quantity.
Place tiles in any order — FreeSpeech understands the relationships between them, not just their sequence. Change a single tile (like swapping "I" for "he") and watch the entire sentence adjust ("eat" becomes "eats").
FreeSpeech converts your picture arrangement into a grammatically correct English sentence and speaks it aloud. The sentence appears on screen, connecting the visual representation to written and spoken language.
Create custom challenge sets for your students. Assign sentence-building tasks aligned to IEP goals. Students complete challenges independently and you review their work.
Control how much grammatical support FreeSpeech provides. Start with full scaffolding for beginners and gradually reduce it as students build independence.
Adjust the available vocabulary from basic (everyday nouns and verbs) to advanced (abstract concepts, complex tenses, prepositions). Match the vocabulary to each student.
FreeSpeech includes picture-based writing supports. Teachers can import any image and assign it as a writing prompt. Students build sentences describing the image.
FreeSpeech supports sentence generation in English, Spanish, and Arabic, with the same visual grammar system. The picture-based approach transcends specific languages.
No internet connection required after download. Use FreeSpeech anywhere — in a therapy room, classroom, or at home.
Many children with autism can learn individual words but struggle with word order, grammar, and abstraction. FreeSpeech makes these invisible structures visible. By representing grammar spatially rather than linearly, it aligns with how many neurodiverse learners process information.
American Sign Language has a very different grammatical structure from English. FreeSpeech helps Deaf students learn English literacy by representing grammar visually, without requiring them to filter it through ASL first.
FreeSpeech's picture-based system is language-independent at its core. Students can explore how English grammar works without relying on their first language as a bridge.
FreeSpeech is a therapy tool, not just a learning app. Create assignments, adjust difficulty, and track progress. It fits naturally into grammar intervention sessions and IEP goal tracking.
FreeSpeech is based on original research into how the brain processes language. Its creator, Ajit Narayanan, developed a visual representation system that maps the deep structure of grammar — not just vocabulary — onto pictures.
