Speech practice kids actually want to do.
A few playful minutes a day, at home. Parents get practice their child asks for, and SLPs pick the sound. Nothing to plan, and you see who practiced.
One app, two ways in.
- Set up in about a minute. Three quick questions on your phone, then your child plays.
- A few minutes of practice a day. Echo asks for the sound, listens, and a game comes after.
- Watch the days add up. A weekly goal and a streak, right in the app.
- Set the target. Pick the sound, the position and a daily goal.
- Send the family link. Copy the ready-made message. Parents set up their child in about 30 seconds.
- Walk in prepared. Practice days, reps and pass rate by sound and position.
The part kids actually ask for.
A daily adventure with Echo, games to play after practice and coins to earn: free games, the released library with Premium. The fun is what brings kids back, so the practice keeps happening at home.
Good to know before you start.
Sona is practice that listens. It supports speech therapy; it doesn't diagnose, evaluate or set goals.
The check asks whether a sound has the acoustic shape of the target. That's narrower than your ear. Treat pass rate as a rough signal, not a score.
Dialectal or bilingual speech, like AAVE or Spanish-influenced English, may be marked as misses. A speech therapist's judgment comes first.
Sona holds a sound back until a child is typically old enough for it: vocalic R, for example, isn't expected until about age 7. An SLP assigns what each child is ready for.
Your questions, answered.
Every check runs on the child's phone. No cloud scorer, no third-party listener, and the app never sends a child's voice anywhere.

No. Every check happens on the child's own phone, and the app never sends a child's voice anywhere. One clip a day may stay in the phone's storage so a parent can listen back. It never leaves the device.
The parent, on their own device, after consenting. If you add a child ahead of time you type initials or a nickname, and Sona discards that once the family joins. You never send Sona a student's name.
If you start from this page: your email and whether you're a parent, a speech therapist or something else, kept by Sona and sent to Kit so Rachel's tips can reach you. A speech therapist's account: email, name, clinic, code. For each consenting family: the child's first name and age, target sounds, practice days and counts, pass rate per sound, your assignments, and when the parent consented. Hosted on Vercel, stored in Upstash, emails via Resend, and the occasional email from Rachel via Kit. If you buy Premium, Stripe takes the payment and holds your email and card; we never see the card number, and nothing about a child goes to Stripe. If you type a parent's email when you add a child, we hand it to Resend to deliver that one email with the link, and Sona keeps no copy: not stored, not logged, not added to any list. Analytics (PostHog) on grown-up pages only, and a Meta ad pixel on this sign-up page so we can tell which of our ads work — neither ever runs where a child practices, and neither is sent a child's name. No ads in the app, no data sales, no profiling.
Two ways, immediately: the parent taps "stop sharing", or you remove the child from your caseload. Otherwise it ages out about 150 days after your caseload's last practice. Unopened invites delete themselves after 30 days.
Ask us and we'll answer in writing, ideally before you share the link. Families share data with us directly after consenting on their own phone, rather than the clinic sharing it for them. If we confirm a breach, we notify affected clinicians and parents within 72 hours.
Your dashboard is free, and so is Sona's free version for every family: daily practice and free games, with no card. Premium is optional, in two steps. Sona Premium for you is $59.99 a year (under $5 a month): every game on your own phone or tablet. Add your caseload for $59.99 a year more (under $5 a month), and every family who joins through your link gets every game, whether or not they share practice with you. You buy them on the web through Stripe; there is no trial, each renews yearly, and you can cancel anytime — your families keep Premium to the end of the year you paid for. Families you don't cover can buy Premium themselves. You never earn anything on your own caseload. Signed up before 24 September 2026? You and your caseload already have it, free: that was the promise, and it stands.
Practice that feels like play.
Free to start, for families and speech therapists.
