Save time. Support better. Without breaking the bank.
Pictalk Buddy is a visual scheduling and sequencing tool designed for medico-social structures. Compatible with your existing devices, without endless training, accessible to families at a pay-what-you-want price.
Without Pictalk Buddy, what does daily life look like in your facility?
Count what you really spend: in money, time, and energy.
| Without Pictalk Buddy | With Pictalk AAC membership | |
| Tools | Work on Word, printing schedules, different apps | A single dedicated application |
| Collaboration | Sending content by email, hard drive or USB stick. | Content shared in real time and secure |
| Content updating | Editing on computer and reprinting if possible | Instant editing from phone, tablet or computer |
| Customization | Generic content for everyone, too time-consuming otherwise. | Adapted to each user, according to their needs |
| Family access | Different tool at home — or none | Same tool for families and professionals |
| Support | You manage yourself | Priority support, guided onboarding, dedicated contact person |
| Actual cost | Professional time + device licenses + printing | Single membership for the whole organization |
The real cost of a bad tool is the time your teams no longer have to provide support.

They use Pictalk Buddy every day
Julie, special education teacher at a special education center
I used to spend an hour every week preparing my group's schedule on Word, with constant adjustments. With Pictalk Buddy, I do it in less than five minutes from my phone, and I can modify it in real time if the day changes.
Joris, special education teacher in a Special education center
I used to spend an hour at the end of each week completing, printing, and attaching the life books. Due to lack of time, I rarely updated them — and that’s a shame, because this link between the parents and the team really matters for the development of the young people. With Buddy, a photo, a few pictograms, and everyone stays connected. Without any rewriting.
Marie, occupational therapist in a special education center
Before, I used generic printed sequencers. With Pictalk Buddy, I customize each tool for each profile, and I manage everything from my phone. My patients finally have a tool that suits them.
You have better things to do than struggle with a tool
No. Families and individuals can access Pictalk Buddy freely, according to what they can contribute. The establishment membership covers only the collaborative and professional features. This is one of our core commitments: that the tool is the same at the educational center and at home, without creating a financial barrier for families.
No, they are two complementary tools. Pictalk Buddy focuses on time structuring: visual schedule, task sequencer, life journal. For augmentative and alternative communication, we develop a dedicated application, Pictalk AAC included in your membership.
