‘My-own-voice’ offers end users the possibility to keep speaking and communicating, by using a reproduction of their own voice, synthetically recreated to support maintenance of identity. An essential part for individuals diagnosed with speech or language disorders – resulting from ALS or other conditions such as aphasia, dysarthria or apraxia.
My-own-voice’ is a web service designed to make it easy for anyone to create a synthetic voice. The service can be used without any particular knowledge and equipment, besides a computer, a headset and an internet connection.
A strong network of partners to serve the end user
“Acapela my-own-voice was initially released in 2015. Since then, Acapela has gathered feedback from patients, built strong relationships and partnerships with vendors, clinics and other institutions in order to provide the community with the best service and experience. We will continue to work this way and enrich the portfolio to reach even more people that may benefit from our solution, adds Nicolas Mazars, Acapela Inclusive Business Unit Manager.
