Pip vs TD Snap: no paywall on speech
TD Snap lets you build pages for free, then charges before the board can actually talk. Pip speaks every word, free, from the first tap.

Only in Pip
Your child taps the words. Pip handles the grammar.
Kids who use AAC often tap the short version: "Mimi go park." One tap turns it into the sentence they meant, in the tense they meant, out loud.
Mimi
go
park
Fix it"Mimi goes to the park."
Question"Is Mimi going to the park?"
Past"Mimi went to the park."
Future"Mimi is going to the park."
Every tap speaks the new sentence out loud. The buttons never move.
No picture? Pip draws one.
Type a new word and Pip draws its picture in the same friendly style as the rest of the board.
Where Pip is different.
Speech is the product. It should be free.
On an iPad, TD Snap keeps full speech behind a purchase. Every built-in word in Pip speaks free, forever, and nothing your child has is ever taken away.
$49 once for the whole team.
When you want every helper, unlimited words of your own, and the progress report, it's $49 once. Not per month. Once.
One tap, whole sentence.
✨ Fix it, past, present, future, and question buttons change the whole sentence at once.
Try Pip tonight alongside what you have.
It's free, so it costs you nothing to see the difference.
