Since 1990, Lingraphica has empowered thousands of individuals with speech challenges to make communication more accessible. The refreshed brand reflects a renewed focus on innovation, empathy, and user empowerment, while offering a look ahead at powerful new AAC features designed to make communication more personal and impactful.
A Clearer, More Inviting Brand
Lingraphica's updated visual identity and messaging more clearly express its mission: to empower users through communication, strengthen human connections, and support more effective therapy. The refreshed look feels modern, approachable, and deeply aligned with the needs of those it serves.
'This is more than a new look,' said Kevin Self, CEO of Lingraphica. 'It reflects the direction we're heading. We're continuing to invest in technology and the personal support that makes a real difference to our customers.'
New Features Released and Coming Soon to Lingraphica AAC Devices
As part of its commitment to continuous innovation, Lingraphica has launched and is rolling out new AAC device features designed to improve real-world communication and therapy outcomes.
Now Available: User-Created Visual Scenes
Users can now create personalized, photo-based scene displays, moving beyond static grids to reflect the real people, places, and routines that shape their lives. These customized scenes offer improved emotional relevance, context, and comprehension, supported by research showing real-life images are among the most easily recognized and meaningful to AAC users (Beukelman et al., 2015; Light, McNaughton, & Caron, 2019).
'We've heard time and again how much users want to see their own lives reflected in the device,' said Katie Driscoll, VP of Product at Lingraphica. 'These personalized scenes make that possible by giving people a way to connect and communicate using what's most familiar and meaningful to them.'
Coming Soon: Advancing AAC Devices with Smarter, More Personalized Tools
Message Window: A redesigned message window allows users to combine multiple cards to build phrases and full sentences with ease.
Save a Phrase in Type: Users can now save typed messages for quick access and reuse, either in the Type app or as cards in Talk.
Alternate Pronunciation: Users can personalize how cards and folders are pronounced, allowing for greater clarity, control, and natural expression.
'These updates give users more flexibility and control over how they communicate,' Driscoll added. 'They're simple yet powerful tools that reflect the real-world needs of our community.'
A Website Built Around the User
The redesigned Lingraphica website mirrors this user-first approach. It now offers:
Streamlined navigation and cleaner content structure
Personalized journeys for SLPs, caregivers, and AAC users
Easier access to therapy tools, device support, and educational resources
As Lingraphica steps into the future, it remains grounded in the same values that defined its first 35 years: clinical excellence, authentic empathy, and world-class customer support.
'We're proud of how far we've come, and we're just getting started,' said Self. 'We'll keep listening to our users and delivering tools that help them connect and thrive.'

LINEAGE INVESTOR ALERT: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Lawsuit Against Lineage, Inc. and Announces Opportunity for Investors with Substantial Losses to Lead the Lineage Class Action Lawsuit
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers of Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ: LINE) common stock in or traceable to the registration statement used in connection with Lineage's July 2024 initial public offering (the 'IPO'), have until September 30, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit. Captioned City of St. Clair Shores Police and Fire Retirement System v. Lineage, Inc., No. 25-cv-12383 (E.D. Mich.), the Lineage class action lawsuit charges Lineage and certain of its top executives, directors, IPO underwriters, and IPO sponsor with violations of the Securities Act of 1933. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: CASE ALLEGATIONS: Lineage is a Maryland REIT focused on temperature-controlled cold-storage facilities. In the July 2024 IPO, Lineage sold over 65 million shares of Lineage common stock to investors at $78 per share, raising more than $5 billion in gross offering proceeds. The Lineage class action lawsuit alleges that the registration statement was false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Lineage was then experiencing sustained weakening in customer demand, as additional cold-storage supply had come on line, Lineage's customers destocked a glut of excessive inventory built up during the COVID-19 pandemic, and Lineage's customers shifted to maintaining leaner cold-storage inventories on a go-forward basis in response to changed consumer trends; (ii) Lineage had implemented price increases in the lead-up to the IPO that could not be sustained in light of the weakening demand environment facing Lineage; (iii) Lineage was unable to effectively counteract the adverse trends listed above through the use of minimum storage guarantees or as a result of operational efficiencies, technological improvements, or its purported competitive advantages; (iv) as a result, rather than enjoying stable revenue growth, high occupancy rates, and steady rent escalation as represented in the registration statement, Lineage was in fact suffering from stagnant or falling revenue, occupancy rates, and rent prices; and (v) consequently, Lineage's financial results, business operations, and prospects were materially impaired. Since the IPO, the price of Lineage stock has fallen to lows near $40 per share. The price of Lineage stock has remained substantially below the IPO price at the time of the filing of the complaint. The plaintiff is represented by Robbins Geller, which has extensive experience in prosecuting investor class actions including actions involving financial fraud. You can view a copy of the complaint by clicking here. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased Lineage common stock in or traceable to the registration statement issued in connection with Lineage's IPO to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Lineage class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Lineage class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Lineage class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit.

Our Firm has been ranked #1 in the ISS Securities Class Action Services rankings for four out of the last five years for securing the most monetary relief for investors.
