Half of all adolescents on the spectrum struggle with atypical prosody - speaking at the correct volume, pitch, and tone for the situation. 79-90 % of the meaning of an expression is conveyed by volume, pitch, and tone. Our goal is to help individuals on the spectrum clearly communicate with the world around them by giving them feedback about real world interactions.

Klara is an app which monitors tone, volume, and pitch.

  • Haptic notifications alert the user when their tone is inappropriate.
  • Logs information about past interactions and provides users feedback about their progress by tracking notification frequency.
