Mylo Speech Buddy App Is Designed To Help Individuals with Speech Delays – Beragampengetahuan

I’ve recently discovered an app called Mylo Speech Buddy and I’m excited to try it with my son.

In terms of our priority though, his Mommy and I would like to focus on his
speech first. He was able to say a few words when he was two years old, but he
regressed and until now, he is still non-verbal except for some babbling and
gestures. 

We believe that being able to express himself through spoken words
would give him a big boost in terms of living independently. Recently, we
discovered an app called Mylo Speech Buddy, which is designed to help
individuals with speech delays due to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

How I discovered Mylo Speech Buddy

Mylo Speech Buddy is a subscription-based app that uses videos to help
non-verbal or speech-delayed autistic children develop their speech. I came to know about Mylo Speech Buddy during its recent launch last April 2, 2024, in time for World Autism
Acceptance Day.

I’ll do whatever I can and try all available tools just to help my son learn how to speak. With that, I’ve recently subscribed to Mylo Speech Buddy for a monthly fee of P999. We have not yet
started with the lessons, but I will provide a constant update to this post if we
get positive results from Mylo Speech Buddy. 

Do keep in mind that the app is
designed to complement your child’s current programs and not replace them so
it’s best to continue with the recommended therapy sessions for your child.

Echelon X, e27’s technology event, brought together over 7,000 startups, SMEs,
exhibitors, investors, corporates, government institutions, and other
ecosystem stakeholders from more than 30 Asian countries, all aimed at
fostering tech ecosystem resilience through collaboration, knowledge sharing,
and innovation.

This year, the TOP100 Program has honed its selection process to spotlight
startups poised for exponential growth. Selected startups benefit from
regional exposure, funding opportunities, mentorship, and access to exclusive
networking events. They will also embark on a six-month program, featuring one
one-on-one coaching and exclusive masterclasses.

Embracing themes like agile practices, collaborative ecosystems, and
sustainability, Echelon X featured 150 speakers and 46 sessions, providing
insights for startups discussing today’s dynamic landscape. The TOP100 Program
startups had access to these sessions, further enriching their experience and
knowledge.

Meanwhile, Mylo Speech Buddy was joined by nine other Philippine startups that
have participated in exclusive events and masterclasses since March, gaining
access to over 800 investors on the e27 PRO Connect platform. They showcased
their innovations at exhibition booths and tried to earn a spot to present on
the Pitch Stage.

“Being part of Echelon’s TOP100 Growth Program is an ‘ausome’ opportunity
for Mylo Speech Buddy and for my fellow autism parents. This opportunity
provides us with unparalleled access to investors and mentors who can help
us scale our impact. We are excited to leverage this platform to further our
mission of supporting children with ASD and speech delays,”
Vincent Rocha, CEO and Founder of Mylo Speech Buddy.

Launched on April 2, 2024, Mylo
Speech Buddy is committed to supporting more individuals on the autism
spectrum, particularly in their journey from zero words to their first spoken
word.

“The mentorship and exposure we have gained through the TOP100 Growth
Program have been inspiring since our launch last month. We are eager to
continue our journey and collaborate with other innovative startups and
industry leaders to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children
and their families,”
he added.

As the Southeast Asian startup ecosystem continues to grow, programs like
TOP100 are crucial in supporting the next generation of startups to ensure
startups have the resources and guidance needed to thrive.

Echelon also revealed plans to create Echelon Philippines this upcoming
September, noting the country’s significant market potential and funding
opportunities.

About Mylo Speech Buddy

Established in July 2023 by Vincent Rocha and Enrico Aquino, Mylo Speech Buddy
is a rapidly growing Filipino startup company. It offers an innovative speech
development app tailored to assist children with speech delays, especially
those on the autism spectrum. The app is readily available for download on
both the App Store and Google Play Store platforms.

The company was established to address a personal challenge encountered by its
founders, stemming from the scarcity of therapists. This challenge is not
unique to local families but is also experienced internationally by those
within the Ausome community.

Mylo collaborates closely with speech pathologists, occupational therapists,
and medical professionals who prioritize the unique needs of children within
the autism spectrum.

Mylo was also a notable finalist on the 9th season of CNN Philippines’ “The
Final Pitch”, a contender in the Department of Trade and Industry
backed-SLINGSHOT x Venture Pilipinas Pitch Competition, and 1st runner-up at
the PLDT and Smart Startup Innovation Challenge.
