The adventure continues! The year 2026 will be full of projects, the main focus this year will be the redesign of Pictalk AAC and the unification of the tools into a single application. Here is an overview of the roadmap
-
By March
At the beginning of this year, we are launching a fundraising campaign to continue offering the applications as pay-what-you-want. We are deploying the geolocation feature for Buddy Watch to provide more peace of mind during outings. We are starting the redesign of Pictalk AAC with a new interface and improved features.
-
By June
By summer, we will launch the new unified version of Pictalk AAC with Pictalk Buddy. We are introducing group features for professionals on the communication part.
-
By September
Before September, we will strengthen the tool’s robustness by adding an automatic error correction module: verb conjugations, agreements, etc. We will also integrate a predictive keyboard to facilitate fast input.
-
By the end of the year
We will expand communication catalogs by adding compatibility with OpenBoard. We will automatically offer intelligent vocabulary based on the context of use, calendar events, etc.
What is the purpose of your contributions?
For greater transparency, we have organized our funding in tiers based on the number of monthly supporters, rather than target amounts. This approach reflects our belief: every contribution matters equally, regardless of its amount. You are a full-fledged supporter. Here is how these supports translate concretely:
-
Level 1 - 150 monthly supporters
With 150 supporters, Pictalk AAC stays online 24/7. Supporters cover the cost of secure servers and the most essential subscriptions. Partial technical maintenance, but no regular development of new features.
-
Level 2 - 350 monthly supporters
With 350 supporters, we can work 2 days per month. Pictalk AAC continues to be maintained technically for every Android and iOS version. Bug fixes, but limited development.
-
Level 3 - 650 monthly supporters
With 650 supporters, one working day per week is dedicated to Pictalk AAC. Complete maintenance and addition of small features requested by the community.
-
Level 4 - 1000 monthly supporters
With 1000 supporters, we can work two days per week on Pictalk AAC. Active development, adding some impactful features from the roadmap: interface redesign, unification of tools.
-
Level 5 - 1800 monthly supporters
With 1800 supporters, we can work full-time at minimum wage. The 2026 roadmap becomes reality: redesign of Pictalk AAC, professional groups, robust tool, predictive keyboard, OpenBoard compatibility.
-
Level 6 - 2500 monthly supporters
With 2500 supporters, we can work full-time with fair pay and have a budget for associative actions.
