Communication challenges affect many young children, hindering their ability to express themselves confidently and engage socially. Often, these challenges stem from speech, language, or voice disorders that begin in early childhood. For children ages 3 to 7, speech difficulties are particularly prevalent, with roughly 8% displaying noticeable issues, such as articulation disorders or stuttering, as they reach primary school age. Many of these cases have no known cause, yet the impact on a child’s self-esteem and social engagement can be significant.

Traditional speech therapy has proven beneficial, yet its accessibility is often limited by high costs, geographic constraints, and the inability to offer personalized, real-time guidance. As a result, many children are left without consistent, tailored support to address their unique needs.

The Challenge Code Blooded is Addressing:
Children struggling with specific sounds and phonemes often find it difficult to gain timely and relevant feedback through standard therapy approaches, which may lack personalization. Moreover, the high cost and limited accessibility of traditional methods can prevent children from receiving adequate practice and support.

How ArticulateIQ Tackles the Problem:
ArticulateIQ harnesses the power of AI to analyze pronunciation through an initial assessment of letters and words, identifying sounds that present particular challenges. From this assessment, the app creates customized practice sessions with immediate feedback, allowing children to refine their pronunciation in real-time.
