AI

Or create your own

Type any worry and AI writes a gentle, illustrated story — narrated, and personalized to your child.

  • Made for the hard moments

    Haircuts, the dentist, a first day at school, a doctor visit — rehearsed calmly, before the day arrives.

  • Tiny, literal words

    A few words a line, first person and reassuring — the way social stories are meant to be written.

  • Read aloud, gently

    Every page is narrated in a soft, warm voice, so your child can just listen and follow.

  • Looks like your child

    Choose a character and weave in their name, so the story feels like it's about them.

How it helps your child

A hard moment, rehearsed gently — long before it happens.

New and unpredictable moments are where anxiety lives for many autistic children. A social story turns the unknown into something familiar and safe — read a few calm times before the day arrives, it changes how the whole moment feels.

1

They know what's coming

Walking through a new moment in advance takes away the fear of the unknown.

2

Calmer, not overwhelmed

Predictability settles the nervous system, so the real moment feels manageable.

3

A script to lean on

The story gives your child the words and the steps to follow when it's time.

Two worlds, one app

Built carefully for both of you.

Same login. Two separate experiences — never an afterthought, never the other side flattened.

A parent and child reading a tablet together
For parents

Your child has one therapist who really knows them. You.

Autipal makes that easier — without lectures, jargon, or shame.

  • Ten minutes that actually fit your day

    Open Autipal. One short lesson is waiting, audio-narrated for the dishes-in-one-hand moment. One concrete thing to try with your child today — no homework, no quiz pressure.

  • Skills that show up in real life

    Joint attention. Communication. Meltdowns. Daily living. You learn the same evidence-based practices clinicians teach — translated into kitchen-table language and your home.

  • Patterns you wouldn't have noticed

    Thirty seconds of journaling a day, gently. Over weeks, Autipal surfaces patterns — sleep, food, routines, wins. Insight without surveillance.

For children

Child Mode is not the parent app made bigger.

A separate, calmer world — designed by autistic adults to be predictable, sensory-safe, and never coercive.

  • A voice when words are hard

    AAC tiles your child can tap to speak. Start with 4 — Mom, Dad, eat, drink — grow to 100+. Every tile shows their world, their language, their family. Their voice, their pace.

  • A day that makes sense

    A visual schedule for today, one picture at a time. No surprise transitions, no countdown timers, no rushing. Just wake up → breakfast → school → home → play.

  • A safe place to come back to

    When the world is too loud, Reduced-stimulation mode strips colors and sounds. A breathing animation. A familiar story. Their stars are still there, waiting.

Powered by AI

AI that does the hard parts so you can just be there.

Type one line — a worry, a word, a hard moment — and Autipal turns it into something your child can use: a talking tile, a calm story, a gentle plan. A person reviews every result. Your child's name and photo never leave your phone.

What one line becomes

AI AAC

Any photo becomes a talking tile.

📷 “pizza”Pizza AAC tile pizza

Snap a photo of anything — their cup, their toy — or just type the word. AI turns it into a tile your child taps to say it out loud.

AI Story

Any worry becomes a calm story.

“haircut”A calm illustrated social story about getting a haircut

Type any worry — a haircut, the dentist, a new school. AI writes a gentle story in your language and narrates it softly.

AI Care Plan

A hard moment becomes a plan.

“He melts down at bath time”

Stay calm at bath time

  • Watch the water together
  • A two-minute splash
  • First bubble bath

Describe what's hard in one sentence. AI shapes it into a small, gentle goal — with steps, and practice linked to Learn and Play.

AI Boards

One sentence becomes a whole board.

“family dinner”
MomDadEatMore

Say what you need — a festival, a dentist visit, dinner time — and AI builds an AAC board with the right words and pictures.

How we keep it safe

Never diagnoses. Never replaces a real clinician.

A companion, not a clinician — Autipal always points you to real, human help.

Your child's information stays private.

Names and personal details are removed, and faces are blurred, before anything is sent to the AI. We never use your family's data to train AI without your clear yes.

A quiet safety net, always on.

If a message ever sounds like a hard or scary moment, Autipal gently offers real help — it never stays silent, and never judges.

A day with Autipal

Small moments, all day long.

Not another program to run. Autipal slips into the day you already have.

8:00 AM

Breakfast, without the guessing

They tap Want → Eat → More. The board speaks, you understand, and the morning stays calm.

3:00 PM

A haircut is coming

You type the worry. AI writes a gentle story in your language — you read it together, twice.

8:30 PM

Ten quiet minutes for you

One audio lesson by a clinician while the dishes soak. Tomorrow you'll try the two-word trick.

9:00 PM

The day counts itself

Practice, moods, and goals gather gently on their own — and your clinic can see the same picture.

Questions

Honest answers, no jargon.

Most autism resources were built somewhere else, in another language, with another family in mind. Therapists are rare and waitlists are long. Parents do the real work — every day, every meal, every meltdown, every win. We built Autipal for them, and for the children they love. Calm. Clear. In their language. On the phone they already have.

Does Autipal replace therapy?

No. Autipal helps parents practice small skills at home. It can also work with a therapist.

Will Autipal diagnose my child?

No. Autipal never diagnoses. It gives learning tools, communication tools, and safety support.

Does AAC stop speech?

No. AAC gives a child another way to be understood. Many children use AAC and speech together.

Does it work offline?

Yes. After the first sync, lessons, AAC, schedules, and Child Mode work offline.

We're a clinic — how do we use Autipal?

You get a free clinic portal: invite families, set goals with them, and see practice and progress between sessions. Families use the app as usual — you see what they choose to share. Email us for a pilot and onboarding help.

Questions

Questions parents ask

What Autipal does, who it's for, and how to start.

What is Autipal?

Autipal is an autism-support app for parents and autistic children aged 2 to 12. It brings together AAC picture tiles that speak aloud, AI-personalized social stories, calm-down tools, cognitive games, and an audio-first Parent Academy — plus a portal for clinics, schools, and organizations.

Is Autipal free?

Yes — you can start Autipal for free. Premium unlocks the full library and is $19.99 per month globally, or Rs 999 per month in Nepal, and you can cancel anytime.

Who is Autipal for?

It is built for parents and caregivers of autistic children aged 2 to 12, for the children themselves through a PIN-locked, sensory-safe Child Mode, and for the therapists, clinics, and schools who support them between sessions.

Does Autipal help non-speaking children communicate?

Yes. Autipal's AAC board lets a child tap picture tiles that speak the words aloud, growing from a few tiles to more than 100. You can even turn a photo into a custom picture tile.

What languages does Autipal support?

Autipal is in English today, with Nepali, Hindi, and Spanish on the way. Translations are reviewed by clinicians so they stay accurate and kind.

Is Autipal created by professionals?

Autipal is designed with therapists and built together with autistic adults, using neurodiversity-affirming, identity-first language. The content is clinician-reviewed.

Does Autipal work offline?

Core tools keep working offline after the first sync, so communication and calm-down tools are available even without a connection.

What is Child Mode?

Child Mode is a PIN-locked, sensory-safe space where a child uses AAC, plays cognitive games, reads social stories, and earns rewards — with no ads, no timers, and no fail states.
