VOISS is an evidence-based tool that helps youth ages 11-18 build social and language skills in simulated environments, helping speech language pathologists support their clients' progress toward pragmatic language and social interaction goals. Because youth can use VOISS independently, you can spend more time monitoring and guiding their progress while the immersive environment does the work of modeling skills and allowing youth to learn them through reinforcements in realistic scenarios.
Our research-backed platform can be used independently or side-by-side during your therapy sessions to help clients build confidence for applying these communication skills to real-world social situations.
Scale your capacity to support your clients.
A Tool You Can Trust
VOISS was developed through years of research at the #1-ranked Special Education program at the University of Kansas. The platform provides a fun, interactive digital environment with access to 140 learning simulations that model 181 skills across 10 Social Skill Domains. Built-in reporting and point-in-time assessment tools show you real data about how your clients are progressing and where they have opportunities for improvement.
VOISS is a safe, structured environment that can be used natively on mobile devices without a wifi connection. There are no chat features and no social media access, which allows youth with autism or social anxiety to focus their attention in a distraction-free learning environment.
Support Your Clients' Goals Without Adding to Your Workload
VOISS provides a scalable, low-risk tool with virtually no setup required, which means clients can get started right away. It can be downloaded on your existing tablets or Meta Quest VR headsets. Clients can independently explore our library of scenarios or work toward the specific pragmatic language goals you assign them.
The web-based VOISS Admin Module is where you log in to use the VOISS Inventory to assess each youth’s social skills and create individualized learning paths. From this dashboard, you can monitor their progress, align their gameplay with IEP goals, and access research-backed extendability content designed to help you generalize the skills they learn into real-life clinical or school settings

Hear From Co-Founder Amber Rowland
Amber Rowland explains why traditional social skills instruction can be difficult to scale and how VOISS was designed to address those constraints. Drawing on 13 years of research, she shares how extended reality, 180 targeted social skills, and coordinated progress tracking can help students practice independently while giving educators more capacity to support them.
Hear From Co-Founder Sean Smith, Ph.D.
Sean Smith explores how technology can better support struggling learners and students with disabilities, particularly in developing the social skills that shape success in school and beyond. Drawing on decades of research, he shares how VOISS uses realistic virtual environments, independent practice, and built-in progress reporting to personalize learning while giving educators more capacity to respond to individual student needs.
