For Deaf / Hard-of-Hearing patients

Built for every patient.
Including ones who don't speak with their voice.

If you are Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, use a sign language, or rely on a pictogram board, P.AI treats your communication preference as a clinical signal, not an afterthought.

For Deaf / Hard-of-Hearing — what we actually do

    Sign language as first-class option

    Choose ASL · ISL · BSL · LSF · Auslan in intake. Encounter flagged for clinic.

    Interpreter request — in-person or VRI

    One toggle. Choose modality: in-person, VRI, phone, family (not preferred for clinical).

    AAC / pictogram users supported

    If you use an AAC device, mark it in intake. Voice-only flows are disabled.

    Section 1557 / ADA

    Federal law requires the clinic to provide a qualified interpreter at no cost to you.

What we are NOT pretending to do

Honesty over hype.

  • We do not read sign language via camera. That's a multi-decade research problem, not a feature.
  • We do not auto-translate to plain language using AI. Your intake captures what you said in your own words. Your visit summary uses standard clinical language because your doctor needs it that way.
  • We do not lip-read or use AI gaze tracking. Voice intake (Sarvam STT) is silently disabled when you choose Sign Language or AAC.
  • Read-aloud uses your browser, not the cloud. No data leaves your device when you tap "Read aloud."
