Enhance Your Hearing with Auditory Training

Your ears may collect sounds, but your brain does the “hearing,” because that’s where audio is understood. Auditory training is a therapeutic practice that’s designed to retrain your brain’s ability to interpret sounds, like speech, to enhance communication. The approach includes different listening exercises to develop your ability to focus on specific sounds in noise. LACE AI Pro is a unique platform that provides auditory treatment solutions at your fingertips.

What is the LACE AI Pro?

LACE is short for Listening and Communication Enhancement. It’s an auditory training program that you can access via app or download on your computer, tablet or smartphone. The program is backed by more than 20 years of scientific research and is designed to help your brain process sound in challenging environments. It includes specialized exercises that you choose based on your specific needs.

 

How It Works

The different listening modules focus on helping your brain relearn to interpret and filter through sounds. That includes speech-in-noise comprehension, rapid speech processing, working and auditory memory and speech-reading enhancements. You choose from the various programs and complete a 15-minute daily training. Over time, you can strengthen your cognitive listening skills and boost your speech comprehension efficiency, which can improve your confidence during conversations.

 

Features

AI adaptive auditory training: LACE AI Pro automatically adjusts the difficulty of your training based on your success. The programs become more challenging as you improve, allowing you to elevate your cognitive abilities over time.

Personalization options: You can incorporate familiar voices into your training by asking loved ones to record their speech to provide real-life examples.

User-friendly design: The program features an easy-to-navigate interface that you can customize based on preferred topics and features, like badges and milestone achievements.

 

Who Could Benefit from Using LACE AI Pro?

The beauty of this program is that anyone can benefit from auditory training. You can use LACE AI Pro even if you have mild or “hidden” hearing loss. If you wear hearing aids, you’ll learn how to distinguish speech sounds from ambient distractions, which can ease listening fatigue. The structured sessions are also helpful if you wear cochlear implants, as your brain adjusts to interpreting sounds differently.
