WillowTree Transforms Vocable AAC Mobile App with Conversational AI Integration, Giving Voice to Millions


The WillowTree team was motivated to create a better solution, and the result was Vocable AAC. With subtle head movements, users control a cursor on a smartphone or tablet to type letters or select custom phrases from personalized categories. This enabled accessible communication for individuals affected by conditions such as MS, ALS, stroke, autism, and spinal cord injuries, as well as intubated hospital patients, but users still had to navigate the entire alphabet to respond. In 2021, Vocable won a Webby Award for “Experimental & Innovation Apps,” but the team did not rest on these laurels.

Today, the Vocable AAC app takes a quantum leap forward. The new Smart Assist feature actually listens to caregivers and gives the user likely response options based on generative AI natural language models. The integration of OpenAI’s ChatGPT allows the app to retain conversational context, enhance predictive pattern detection, and bolster semantic understanding of a caregiver’s speech. In lay terms, this means the application now acts as a translator between caregivers and non-verbal individuals, who can communicate more naturally by pointing to AI-generated responses.

To better illustrate why this is so powerful, imagine a caregiver asking a non-verbal user, “What would you like for dinner?”

  • Without Vocable, a paralyzed user must slog through the process of blinking as a caretaker points to individual letters on an alphabet board, laboriously spelling out their dinner request. An ambulatory, non-verbal user might be able to tap certain pre-populated images of food on a bulky AAC device, assuming they can afford it.
  • With AI-enabled Vocable AAC, a tablet screen immediately populates a list of the user’s favorite restaurants. When they make a selection using subtle head movements, Vocable then populates the menu for that restaurant, allowing the user to order specific items. If the caregiver asks a follow-up question Vocable will auto-generate responses, creating a much more natural, organic, and immediate conversation for both people.

Andrew Carter, Staff Software Engineer at WillowTree, emphasizes the transformative quality of Vocable AAC’s new integration: “ChatGPT is a conversational interface, it’s literally made for this. It understands an entire conversation’s history, providing better AI-generated responses for the non-verbal user to select.”

Response from users has shown the life-changing potential of this free app:

  • “Vocable is making a major difference in the ALS community,” said Tom Meadows, founder of Steve’s Way. “I have seen people break into tears when using your app.”
  • “When so few hospitals have available technology for the communication-vulnerable, it’s exciting that a platform like Vocable exists,” said Dr. John M. Costello, MA at Boston Children’s Hospital. “Vocable is easy to access and most importantly free.”

This significant update from WillowTree is only a glimpse into the future of voice technology. Coming in October 2023, Hachette will publish WillowTree’s President Tobias Dengel’s book, The Sound of the Future: The Coming Age of Voice Technology, illustrating how voice technology is set to revolutionize life and business — much like the internet revolution in the ’90s and mobile computing a decade later.

With Vocable AAC, WillowTree continues to give a voice to millions and remind us all of our shared human connections. For more information, visit: https://www.willowtreeapps.com/case-studies/vocable

Leading Health Organizations and Chain Pharmacies Join Together in Public Education Campaign to Reduce Preventable, Diet-Related Diseases


“Pharmacies have become the face of neighborhood health and wellness, as more than 90% of Americans live within five miles of a retail pharmacy,” said Steven C. Anderson, FASAE, CAE, IOM, President & Chief Executive Officer of NACDS. “We are honored to work alongside our campaign collaborators to build healthy communities. This is part of an NACDS health and wellness innovation platform that can be viewed as ‘pharmacy plus’ – leveraging the total store for the total person. A poll conducted by Morning Consult and commissioned by NACDS September 9 to 11 found that more than 8-in-10 Americans support a role for pharmacists in helping patients understand their nutritional choices – so that is powerful trust to build on.”

The campaign website, NourishMyHealth.org, will serve as the campaign hub for information and resources from the American Cancer Society, the American Diabetes Association®, and the American Heart Association. It will also feature the Healthy Food Guide and a five-question food and nutrition security survey from the Food is Medicine Institute at Tufts University through a digital platform hosted by Higi, a health engagement company.

“The link between diet and cancer is often overlooked,” said Laura Makaroff, senior vice president of cancer prevention at the American Cancer Society. “An estimated four to five percent of cancer cases can be attributed to a poor diet. A healthy diet can reduce the risk of several types of cancer and improve overall quality of life.”

“Healthy living can lower an individual’s risk of developing type 2 diabetes and can help those living with diabetes better manage the condition,” said Charles “Chuck” Henderson, chief executive officer of the ADA. “By helping people understand what foods are healthy and nutritious, we can reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and other chronic diseases and lower the risk of people developing complications from diabetes.”

“A heart-healthy dietary pattern can reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease and other chronic conditions,” said Mitchell S.V. Elkind, M.D., M.S., FAHA, chief clinical science officer of the American Heart Association and a tenured professor of neurology and epidemiology at Columbia University. “Our hope is to educate more people about how to lead a healthier life by making healthier food choices, and managing their risk factors for heart disease, including high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.”

“We are at an all-hands-on-deck moment to increase awareness of our national crisis of diet-related diseases, help Americans make healthier food choices, and introduce sensible policies to make nourishing food available and affordable for all,” said Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH, a cardiologist and Director of the Food is Medicine Institute. “Pharmacies are often trusted sources of information and embedded within their communities and can be important catalysts to help achieve these crucial goals.”

Currently, more than 10 chain pharmacy companies have indicated their intent to participate at select locations through the end of the year, leveraging scheduled wellness events, immunization clinics, and American Diabetes Month in November.

Rare Cannabinoid Company Launches World’s First Cannabinoid Finder Quiz


“We created an easy way to match one’s needs with specific cannabinoids and products,” she said.

The Cannabinoid Quiz asks three questions:

  • What do you need help with? (Examples: soreness and discomfort, sleep, want to eat more, want to eat less etc.)
  • Would you like to avoid some / all THC?
  • What types of products would you like to see? (Gummies, oil tinctures, topicals)

Quiz takers receive their results and a coupon code for a free packet of THC Mood Gummies ($25 value).

Unlike CBD quizzes which only select CBD products by type or strength, Rare Cannabinoid Company’s quiz shows the specific cannabinoid or combination of cannabinoids with the most potential benefits given the user’s answers. Quiz takers can look up more information on those cannabinoids and find links to articles and scientific studies on them.

Then, based on their needs, chosen amount of THC content, and product type, quiz takers are matched with cannabinoid oils, gummies, or topicals.

For example, if someone takes the cannabinoid quiz and says:

  • They need help with “energy and mental focus” and “want to eat less”
  • For THC content “I’m not sure yet”
  • Chosen product types are “Gummies” and “oil tinctures”

Their results show:
Recommended Cannabinoids THCV (for appetite suppression and energy) and CBDV (for sociability, memory, and tranquility)

Products selected for them are: pure THCV tincture, THCV CBD, extra strength THCV gummies with CBD, and CBDV distillate.

“You can also take the quiz multiple times to target different needs. You might find you can use CBG products for soreness after exercise, CBDA or THC Mood Gummies for occasional nausea, and CBN gummies for sleep at night,” said the spokesperson.

Quiz takers will need to enter their email address to receive results and their coupon code for a free packet of 10 THC Mood Gummies.

Mood Gummies each contain 5mg delta-9-THC or relaxation as well as high levels of CBC cannabinoid for improved mood and CBD for calm, balance, and the entourage effect.

Mood Gummies ship to all locations within the United States. No purchase required. However, customers will need to pay shipping fees or spend $75+ for free shipping.

Rare Cannabinoid Company grew out of Hawaiian Choice, a luxury Hawaiian CBD brand established in 2017. The company offers the largest selection of naturally occurring rare cannabinoid oils and gummies as well as Hawaiian CBD products, Pet CBD, and hemp-derived delta-9-THC gummies. Products can be found in hundreds of stores across the United States, Asia, and South America. Brick-and-mortar stores can visit wholesale website Wellness Orders to learn more about stocking both Rare Cannabinoid Company and Hawaiian Choice products.
