We know that anxiety is a huge issue for many people who stutter. This is why our BeneTalk device will not be used on its own. It communicates with an app which teaches and reinforces not only the speech technique but also CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) techniques to help with negative thoughts and beliefs and anxiety around stuttering. The app will also be available on it's own, for free, from April 2020. Our device itself does not actually record WHAT you say, just HOW you say it, so you don't have to be afraid that big brother is watching you. We take every possible precaution that our users data will be encrypted and safe.
