QUILL began as a writing studio and has grown into a small family of free, screen-reader-first software for Windows and macOS, built by the community that depends on it: the QUILL writing environment, the new Quill Radio internet radio app, and a dedicated podcast client on the way. Every command announces its outcome. Everything works from the keyboard. Your data never leaves your device without your explicit say-so. QUILL itself is at version 0.9.0 – the final feature beta before 1.0 – with everything this project set out to build already in the product.

The BT Braille is a powerful, Braille first computer with an eight-dot Braille keyboard with speech and Braille output in 20 cell and 40 cell models. This device can be as simple as being your trusty notetaker but it’s powerful enough for those who want to write their own code and run your own software. It has more features than you can shake a white cane at. To name a few, it has a phone book, appointment calendar, calculator, stopwatch, an email program, two Web browsers, a radio tuner, a YouTube app and more. We can’t wait to tell you more about the BT Braille and answer your questions about it.
