A calmer way to communicate & learn.
Zavii is a gentle, tablet-based app for non-verbal and minimally verbal autistic children — a full communication board and a play-based way to learn academics, in your family's own language. No flashing, no pressure, at your child's pace.
Built by a family who lives it. Private by design — your answers stay anonymous.
Two things, one calm app
A talker your child can speak with — and a gentle homeschool.
Most apps do one or the other. Zavii does both, sharing one set of pictures, one calm design, and one pace that follows your child.
Say what you need
- Tap pictures to speak — ask for help, a break, yes / no, “all done”.
- Grid grows with your child: from just a few tiles to a full board.
- Speaks in your language — and in your own recorded family voice.
- Picture routines for everyday moments: bathroom, brushing teeth, bedtime.
Learn through play
- Matching, sorting, letters, numbers, early reading, life skills.
- No timers, no scores, no “wrong” buzzers — it gently helps, then steps back.
- By skill, never by age or grade. Your child is never “behind”.
- Leads with what your child loves to keep them happy and engaged.
What makes it different
The little things other apps miss.
Zavii brings together what's usually spread across five separate apps — a talker, a learning programme, routines, regulation, and parent coaching — into one calm place, built around how your child actually learns.
Grows with your child
Choose how many pictures show at once — from just four (2×2) up to a full board — and the learning games meet your child at the very same level.
Speaks in your voice
Record your family's own voices on the buttons. As Zavii grows, your child's whole talker can speak in your voice — in your language and dialect.
Made for how your child talks
Many autistic children speak in whole phrases or scripts (gestalt language). Zavii supports that — whole-sentence buttons and picture scenes — instead of forcing single words.
Learns by skill, never grade
Play-based lessons that quietly adapt to your child. No timers, no scores, no “wrong” buzzer — and your child is never labelled “behind”.
Picture routines for daily life
Step-by-step cards for the bathroom, brushing teeth, showering and more — in the familiar PECS style — with “I need help” and “I need a break” always one tap away.
Calm & sensory-first
One-tap low-stimulation mode, soft visuals, no flashing — and gentle movement breaks suggested between activities when your child needs them.
It coaches you, too
Short, friendly videos and tips so you know exactly what to do at home — like a therapist gently guiding you, in your own language.
Suggests what's next
Zavii quietly learns how your child communicates and suggests the next words and activities to try — so you're never guessing what comes next.

Why we're building it
The best tools are costly, English-first, and overwhelming.
Zavii is being built to be the opposite — calm, affordable, and in the language your family actually speaks at home.
Calm by design
Soft visuals, very few words on screen, no flashing. The child can stop any time.
Your language
Built multilingual from day one — Arabic and English first, with the dialect and culture that fit your family.
Neuroaffirming
We never try to stop stimming or make a child “act normal”. We support how your child already communicates.
Private & honest
Support and learning — never “treatment” or “cure” claims. Your data stays yours.
