What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The GoTalk Select is a small, wearable AAC device that plays pre-recorded voice messages when you press one of its four buttons — with three switchable levels, it holds up to 12 different recorded messages total. It's designed for someone who needs quick, reliable access to a limited set of phrases throughout the day — greetings, requests, yes/no responses — and wants something portable enough to hang on a lanyard or clip to clothing rather than carry a larger device. This is a complete, standalone unit: rechargeable, no app or tablet required, and straightforward to record messages onto directly. The tradeoff is that 12 messages across three levels is a fairly limited vocabulary, so it works best as a supplemental tool or for users with very targeted, predictable communication needs rather than as a primary AAC solution.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
- Charge the device via USB before first use.
- Press record, speak your message into the built-in microphone for each button, and the device is ready to use.
- With professional help
- An SLP or AAC specialist can assess whether 12 messages across 3 levels meets the user's communication goals, or whether a higher-capacity device is more appropriate.
- If used as part of a broader AAC system, the SLP can help select and organize vocabulary across levels for maximum functional benefit — typically addressed within 1-2 sessions.
