We unveiled NULU at Abilities Expo 25. Since June, it’s been incredible to see how many people have regained food prep confidence and independence.

We’ve learned NULU helps vision-impaired and seated users too. Grateful for the support.

I depend on various #assistive devices—like my cane, wheelchair, and adjustable bed—and technology, including a wide range of writing, image editing, and audio editing tools. They may not let me live or create exactly as before, but they offer more opportunities than I'd have otherwise.
