Five years ago, we started building something that didn't exist: an AI platform that could analyze a child's natural speech and generate standardized evaluation metrics in minutes instead of hours.
Today, EASI is commercially available through Northern Speech Services.
The journey here wasn't linear, let alone easy. We lost a key technical partner when their approach produced unreliable results. Rather than give up, we rebuilt from scratch. We navigated the shift from early language models to LLM's clinical reasoning capabilities. Through it all, the National Science Foundation believed in what we were building. EASI is the result of an NSF Phase I and Phase II Small Business Innovation Research award, steadfastly developed with their investment to reach this point.
What EASI actually does: it transforms five-hour speech evaluations into fifteen to thirty minutes. It separates speakers automatically with 98-99% accuracy. It generates IPA transcription, MLU, IPSYN, PCC, and vocabulary diversity metrics. It produces standardized scores and percentile rankings from naturalistic speech samples. And it includes MySLP, a HIPAA-compliant clinical reasoning partner that provides second opinions before you sign your name.
This isn't ChatGPT with a clinical veneer. It's purpose-built infrastructure on AWS Bedrock, designed by practicing speech-language pathologists who spent thirteen years doing the work we're now automating.
The market validation: after extensive research, we've found no other commercially available platform using dual-agent LLM analysis for speech-language evaluation. EASI appears to be first to market. For the 150,000+ SLPs drowning in documentation, for the children waiting months for evaluations, for the districts struggling with caseload capacity, this is for you.
Thank you to the National Science Foundation and the Small Business Innovation Research program for making this possible. Your investment in innovation changes lives.
Lois Brady and I are grateful to everyone who believed this was possible when the evidence suggested otherwise.
