SpeechEasy is a fully portable and inconspicuous fluency-enhancing device for people who stutter. It is a prosthetic device that fits in or behind the ear. For years, it has been known that when people who stutter speak the same material in unison with another speaker, they become fluent. this is known as "choral speech".

By allowing the user to hear his or her own voice with a pitch shift, a slight time delay, or a combination of both, SpeechEasy creates the illusion of another speaker at the same time. it is an emulation of choral speech.

Although the SpeechEasy device is a relatively new type of technology, over ten years of scientific research conducted at Dalhousie University and East Caroline University have shown that the use of altered auditory feedback can significantly enhance fluency levels in a variety of situations including reading, monologue, using the telephone, and speaking in front of an audience.
