hearing loss.
Disappearing consonants
S, F, and TH are high-pitched and quiet, so they’re the first sounds to go in the most common type of hearing loss, whether it’s there from birth, comes from noise, or arrives with age. The vowels hang on; the words get harder to tell apart.
Scroll slowly and watch the soft sounds fade.
A better hearing loss simulator
Demonstrate with custom data
Enter the numbers from a hearing test, including one taken with AirPods, to create a custom hearing profile. You can mark its genetic cause, too.
The cochlea in 3D
Watch a model of the inner ear light up when sounds reach the hair cells, then zoom in to see where each hearing loss is.
Model the impact of tinnitus and hearing devices
Add tinnitus, and experience how speech and other sounds are affected by using hearing aids or a cochlear implant.
Visualize the difference
See what sounds disappear with hearing loss, and which come back with a hearing aid.
Bring your own audio
Try out the simulator with the built-in sound and speech samples, or select your own audio file or the microphone.
Share a profile
Send any profile as a short link or a QR code.
Private by design
There’s nothing cloudy about privacy: Aurisma keeps personal health information like your hearing test results on your device, not floating on a server somewhere.
Stays on your device
Your custom profiles, hearing test results, and settings are saved in your device's browser. They’re never sent to a server.
Your audio is secure
The audio you open, record, or play through your microphone is processed within your browser and never uploaded to a server.
No accounts or tracking
There are no accounts, ads, analytics, tracking, or cookies. There is nothing to sign up for or log into.
You choose what to share
A custom profile only leaves your device in a link you share. It’s carried inside the link, so it never reaches the site’s server, and your notes aren’t included.
