Based in Frankfurt, Germany, Talking Hands Flipbooks GmbH provides physical and digital learning materials to teach sign language. The company was founded in 2020 by Maria Möller and Laura Mohn. The concept originated from Mohn's communication design thesis, inspired by her sister who has Down syndrome.
The company's core products are flipbooks that show how to form signs from the German Sign Language (DGS). These products are designed for children, including those with hearing or speech impairments, autism, or delayed language development, and are used in daycares, schools, and at home. In addition to flipbooks, the company sells posters, learning games, and card sets. Talking Hands also offers a mobile application that includes learning games and a sign language dictionary.
The business operates on a B2C e-commerce model, selling its products directly to consumers through its website. Product prices range from approximately €3.50 to €250. In February 2022, the company raised seed funding from investors to expand its product portfolio and grow into other EU countries.
