Overview / Description
MaskOff Banter is an AI-powered social fluency app that gives neurodivergent adults low-stakes practice for the everyday conversations that drain them. Built by a neurodivergent family, it is positioned specifically for neurodivergent adults rather than as a clinical tool or a children's app, and it deliberately avoids therapy-speak and neurotypical assumptions. The core experience is a library of roleplay scenarios rated by difficulty (for example "Gentle," "Medium," and "Difficult") across categories like friendships, each targeting a specific skill such as asking one genuine follow-up question, sustaining small talk through a natural lull, or holding a position calmly through disagreement while keeping the relationship warm. Alongside roleplay, the product combines video-based emotional recognition, trigger-based coping skills, and a private processing journal in one place. Users can browse the scenarios for free and sign up when they are ready to actually try one, making it a rehearsal space for hard conversations with zero stakes and no one watching. It is aimed at masking adults who want honest, precise practice for real interactions.
