Built in a classroom. For the children no one else was reaching.

PicSeePal started in a classroom.After 22 years working with children with complex communication needs across Australia, the Pacific, and Africa, I kept watching the same thing happen. Families handed tools they couldn't use. Children on waitlists that ran for a year. Teachers with no training, no time, and no backup.So I built something different. Something you open and start. No battery. No app. No referral. Just a child, a board, and a picture they can point to.PicSeePal is now active across 25 pilot sites worldwide. Embedded in 5 NIKA Project programs globally. Collaborating with the Global Autism Project. Recognised by UNICEF as a Champion for Children 2026. Used by more than 1,500 families.The early intervention research is clear — the earlier communication support begins, the better the long-term outcomes. Every month on a waitlist is a month that matters. PicSeePal exists because children cannot afford to wait for systems that were not designed with them in mind.I'm Chris. I'm a teacher. I built this because I believed something better was possible. I still read every email personally.If you have a question before you buy — ask me.hello@picseepal.com

I'd like to suggest a location for a PicSeePal global pilot
