We’re excited to welcome the US startups joining our Remarkable 2025 Accelerator!

Now in our tenth year of accelerating Disability Tech, the momentum of innovation is stronger than ever. Through our partnership with the Cerebral Palsy Research Foundation (CPARF), these US startups join our Australia+ founders to build a truly global network of changemakers.  Led by our US Director, Molly Lazarus, the US cohort has just begun their Accelerator journey, bringing fresh energy and ideas into our global community.

Together, the US and Australia+ cohorts showcase the diversity of Disability Tech, from communication and transport to independent living and play, reflecting the many ways innovation can remove barriers and create opportunities.

“We are so excited for this cohort - they not only represent a diversity of disability tech solutions, but they are pushing the boundaries of tech development as a whole. I can’t wait to see how they develop over the coming 16 weeks.”

Pete Horsley, Founder of Remarkable

Meet the Cohort

Here are the startups in the US cohort, listed in alphabetical order:

The Ask Grandma Project

Ask Grandma is a mobile health app developed by an Indigenous speech-language pathologist and researcher at Johns Hopkins University. The app offers Indigenous caregivers a trusted, grandmother-like voice to turn to when they’re worried about their child’s development. With warmth and cultural grounding, Ask Grandma blends developmental science with Indigenous caregiving wisdom, answering questions like “My toddler isn’t talking yet. What should I do?” The app gently guides families toward supportive services, weaving in storytelling, tradition, and reassurance. Ask Grandma bridges gaps in access, honors native culture, and empowers families with both knowledge and connection.
