  • (1888PressRelease) March 03, 2015 - Ghotit has just released its long awaited Real Writer & Reader for iPad.

    Ghotit Real Writer & Reader uses advanced writing and reading assistant technologies tailor-made for people with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning disabilities. The Ghotit Real Writer & Reader boasts of the following advanced capabilities, all designed for the dyslexic community:

    • Word-prediction with grammar and phonetics awareness
    • Context-sensitive and phonetic spell checker
    • Advanced grammar and punctuation corrector
    • An effective proofreader
    • Speak as you write (speech feedback)
    • Integrated dictionary
    • Reading assistance with dual highlighting
    • Integration with all text editing applications
    • Standalone Text Editor

    Ghotit Real Writer & Reader iPad supports any text application running on iPad.

    Ofer Chermesh, one of Ghotit's founders, is a lifelong dyslexic. The struggle of producing readable text is well known to him, "iPad revolution has affected the way people consume information and communicate. More and more people are adopting tablets as the preferable means to communicate with each other. This is influencing the writing assistant tools developed for dyslexics. With the iPad release of Ghotit Real Writer & Reader, people with dyslexia will be able to read, write and freely."

    Regular text editors and spell checkers are designed to correct relatively minor spelling mistakes. In order to identify the correct spelling of a poorly spelled word, the context of the sentence needs to be analyzed. Ghotit offers a novel patent-protected context spell checking technology tuned for people with dyslexia and bad spelling habits. Using these algorithms, Ghotit can detect and correct not only really bad spelled words but also misused words, words that are spelled correctly but are written out of context. Ghotit also offers advanced grammar checking algorithms ensuring that the corrected text is not only error-free but also written with correct English grammar.

    "For years people with dyslexia were forced to buy a number of expensive assistive technology tools in order to help them write freely. These tools seldom managed to work smoothly together. Ghotit Real Writer & Reader offers an integrated solution with Ghotit Reader seamlessly complementing Ghotit Writer," says Ofer Chermesh.

    Ghotit first launched its only free online web service in 2009. Since then, Ghotit has released multiple products targeting Windows and Macintosh desktop and laptop users and recently has entered the tablet world with a solution for Windows, Android tablets/smartphones and iPad. Ghotit writing assistant solution has been adopted over the years by tens of thousands of dyslexic users and many schools, universities and training centers worldwide.

    Though initially designed for people with dyslexia, Ghotit has demonstrated success for people with other writing and reading difficulties such as people who use English as their Second Language (ESL) and English Language Learners (ELL), enabling them to move to mainstream English Writing.
