Available online or on CD-ROM, it includes four award-winning software titles:HearBuilder Following Directions, HearBuilder Phonological Awareness, HearBuilder Sequencing, andHearBuilder Auditory Memory.

The suggestion for proper implementation is 15-20 minutes per day, 2-3 times a week for a minimum of 6 weeks although all of their trials have used an 8 week period. It is intended for PreK to 8th grade students. It focuses on the following skills in four separate programs:
- HearBuilder Following Directions
- HearBuilder Phonological Awareness
- HearBuilder Sequencing
- HearBuilder Auditory Memory
