Our mission
Create the gold standard, evidence-based digital therapeutic solution for stuttering.
Stuttering is a neuro developmental disorder that begins in childhood and often becomes chronic for teens/adults. It affects 8% of children and 2% of adults, however we believe the existing forms of therapy are not as effective as they should be.
BeneTalk is the solution that provides out-of-clinic support to parents/teens/adults who stutter & empowers speech therapists to offer support before, during, and after therapy.
Beyond stuttering, we have the potential to help EVERYONE find joy in speaking.
