AAC Speak Helper
Free
AAC Speak Helper is a free Windows program that takes text you copy to the clipboard, then translates it, converts it between writing systems (such as Latin to Devanagari), and reads it aloud using text-to-speech voices from several providers. It's meant to be called from another AAC app on Windows that can run outside programs, so it helps most when someone needs to speak a language their AAC app's voices handle poorly. For example, a Ukrainian speaker could have their text turned into English for caregivers. It has no main window of its own, but a separate Configure app lets you set options and keep different settings files for different tasks. You'll need to run the server and client yourself and edit your pagesets to add a speak button, so it's not a plug-and-play tool.

RelayKeys
Free
RelayKeys lets one computer send keystrokes and mouse movements to other devices over Bluetooth, so those devices think a regular keyboard and mouse are connected. It's aimed at people who depend on one dedicated system, like an eye gaze setup, but need to use other computers, tablets, or phones for work or fun. It works over Bluetooth rather than a shared network, which matters in schools and offices where network sharing isn't allowed. It's open source and runs as software on the main computer plus Bluetooth hardware, with a couple of hardware options. Expect to build or set up the hardware and install software, so it suits someone comfortable following technical documentation.
