An AI assistant for speech therapists: exercise sets, progress records and replies to parents
The session and the diagnosis stay with you. The assistant takes what lives between sessions: picking exercises for a specific disorder, the progress record, home recommendations and correspondence with parents.
Lesson plans and parent reports are the routine that lives between the sessions themselves.
What it does
prepares sets of exercises for a specific difficulty
keeps a record of progress across sessions
prepares guidance for parents to practise at home
answers parents' practical questions
writes the report on the results of a course
What it does not do
The limits are set in advance
does not make the speech assessment in a specialist's place
does not run the sessions with the child
How much time it frees up
By our reviews, a speech therapist spends roughly
11 hours a week on the routine listed above — more than a third of the working week. The assistant does not take all of it: some tasks you will still be checking. But checking something finished is faster than doing it from scratch, and the gain lies in exactly that difference.
How it works
The assistant prepares materials and works through the routine without touching the substance. The limits are set in advance and firmly: where a specialist's qualification is needed, the assistant stops and passes the question to you.
How the assistant handles a speech therapist's tasks
An exercise set for a disorder in ten minutes
After the assessment you write the assistant three lines: age, what is impaired, what stage the work is at — sound production, automation in syllables, in words, in phrases. The assistant assembles a set for the week: articulation gymnastics, breathing exercises, speech material in increasing difficulty, marked as for the session or for home. The material comes from your own library and handbooks uploaded at the start — nothing "from the internet" without your approval.
A progress record you do not keep by hand
After each session you note by voice or in two lines: what worked, what did not, what was assigned. The assistant updates the child's record: date, stage, sounds worked on, observations. By the end of the course you have a timeline for each child — for the parents' report, for handing over to a colleague, for your own "where were we a month ago" check.
Home recommendations for parents
Parents ask "what should we do at home", and you write the same thing in different words. The assistant prepares a plain-language handout: five minutes a day, which exercises, how to tell it is done correctly, what not to do. The handout goes to the messenger right after the session, together with the week's speech material.
Parents' scheduling questions — without you
"What time are we tomorrow?", "can we move it?", "how many sessions are left?" — the assistant answers by your schedule and rules, moves a session to a free slot and shows you the change. Questions about the child's speech, prognosis and correction timelines it does not discuss — it passes them to you.
A course results report
A course of twelve sessions is over and the parents need a summary. The assistant builds the report from the progress record: what the child came with, what was done, what is consolidated, what is recommended next — in your form and your wording. You read it, fix a line or two and send.
What the dialogue looks like
You: Artyom, 5, [r] produced, starting automation in syllables. For the week: syllables, then words with the sound at the start. Home — gymnastics and syllables 5 minutes a day.
Assistant: Set assembled: 6 gymnastics exercises from your library, syllable rows in three variants, 12 words with the sound at the start. The parents' handout is ready — send now or after your check?
You: Send it. In the record note: production completed 21 September.
Assistant: Noted. The handout went to Artyom's mother at 15:40. Next session Thursday 16:00, the reminder goes out the day before.
What we need from you at the start
Your library of exercises and speech material — files, photos of cards, links to the handbooks you use.
The child's record form and the parents' report form — one filled example of each.
The schedule and rescheduling rules: how many hours in advance, how many times, what happens with illness.
The list of topics the assistant does not discuss with parents: diagnosis, prognosis, correction timelines.
Implementation timeline
The first conversation — what materials you have and how much time goes on preparation and messaging. Setup for your library and forms — three to four days. A week of parallel work: the assistant prepares sets and handouts, you correct the wording. From the second week there is usually one or two corrections per set.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the assistant take exercises from? From your library: the handbooks, cards and materials you uploaded. If the needed exercise is not there, the assistant says so and offers an option marked "check" rather than substituting a random one.
Can the assistant talk to parents itself? On scheduling questions — yes: the timetable, rescheduling, what was assigned. On the child's speech, prognosis and diagnosis — no; it passes such messages to you without answering on the substance.
Does it suit a private practice without an office? Yes. The assistant works in the messenger and with files; for online sessions it prepares the same sets and handouts, and keeps the progress record from your notes after each call.
How much does it cost and what do I pay for later? Task analysis and setup of one assistant — from 12,000 ₽, usually 5–7 days. Then support from 4,000 ₽ a month if you need changes and new scenarios; without support the assistant keeps working.
