We're working with state leaders and towns across Connecticut to begin rolling out the first statewide nonverbal communication infrastructure in the country. We're actively deploying our first pilot locations now β and inviting towns and states across America to join.
Connecticut has established itself as a national leader in digital accessibility. The state's Statewide Digital Accessibility Lead oversees compliance across all state agencies, municipalities, and public-facing digital services.
The mission: ensure that every resident β regardless of disability, language, or communication ability β can access public services. Not eventually. Now.
Key state initiatives that TinkyTown aligns with:
All 169 Connecticut municipalities must provide auxiliary aids for effective communication. TinkyTown is that aid β deployed instantly via QR code.
Connecticut mandates WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for state websites. TinkyTown extends that standard to in-person communication at every counter.
Connected through Arlene Lugo, CT Tech Act Program Director. TinkyTown is being distributed to all four regional AT partner networks: ACES, CREC, EASTCONN, and NEAT.
No IT procurement. No hardware installation. No staff training. One QR code printed on paper. Connecticut's towns can deploy in hours, not months.
Your town name, address, departments, room numbers, floor locations. Takes us one day. You don't do anything.
We generate your unique QR codes. You print them. Tape one at the Town Clerk window. One at the Tax Office. One at the front desk. Done.
A nonverbal resident scans the QR code with their phone. Tiles appear. They tap. The device speaks for them. No app. No training. No hardware.
Anonymous usage data: how many sessions, how long, which departments, which languages. You get a monthly report proving the value to your council.
Pilot pricing starts at $700/month based on town size. No setup fees. No contracts. No hardware. Cancel anytime. The only risk is not having it when someone needs it.
