Project Revoice is recreating the voices of ALS patients – such as Pat Quinn – so they can embrace the familiarity of their own voices, after the disease takes their vocal chords.

VocaliD is on a mission to humanize the voice within AAC devices. Founded by Dr. Rupal Patel in 2014, VocaliD leverages its Human Voicebank of over 15,000+ members from over 110 countries that together have contributed upwards of 6 million sentences and the company’s proprietary voice blending technology to create unique vocal persona for every AAC use

Team Gleason to fund Critical Voice Banking for pALS through ModelTalker

This technology will allow those living with ALS to continue

using their own voice to communicate

New Orleans, LA

​

- January 31, 2018 - Team Gleason is excited to announce that all people living with ALS in the United States who would like to “bank”their voice to use after they have lost the ability to speak can do so at no cost to them through a partnership with ModelTalker starting tomorrow.

Steve Gleason had the opportunity to create his own synthetic voice through the process of voice banking when he was first diagnosed with ALS in 2011. Steve’s motto was and has

always been that “until there is a medical cure for ALS, I believe technology can act as a cure.”

Steve believes that with the availability of the correct technology, equipment, and sense of purpose, it is possible for ALS patients to live for decades.
