When a child's only voice is TapTalk AAC, the technology must work. Every time. Everywhere.
TapTalk AAC is not a side project or an MVP. It is a life-critical communication platform for children who have no fallback. When the app crashes, the child goes silent. We build accordingly.
Concurrent rendering, automatic batching, and Suspense-based data loading ensure instant UI response. PWA architecture enables offline use without a data connection. Critical for children in low-connectivity rural areas.
Battle-tested backend with JIT compilation, typed properties, and fibre-based concurrency. SQLite for edge deployments; Enterprise Relational DB Engine for clinical enterprise. Zero-downtime migrations.
Static assets served from Cloudflare's global edge with Irish PoP priority. Sub-10ms response times across Ireland. DDoS protection, WAF, and bot management at infrastructure level.
Every interface audited against WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Switch access, eye-gaze compatibility, high-contrast modes, keyboard navigation, and screen reader support are first-class features.
Natural-sounding TTS using Web Speech API with fallback to custom neural models. Irish English voice profiles optimised for natural prosody — so the child's digital voice sounds like they belong here.
Clinical data exports in HL7 FHIR R4 format, enabling integration with HSE Patient Summary systems, GP practice management software, and CDNT electronic clinical records.
TapTalk AAC operates in full alignment with Irish Special Educational Needs (SEN) legislation and statutory Assistive Technology grant frameworks.
