Unlike other keyboards, 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", says Ofer Chermesh,
Ghotit CEO. Dr. Robert Iakobashvili, Ghotit CTO,
said, "Being inspired by legendary Steve Jobs, we
were thinking mainly about user convenience, easy
work-flow and a great design - all to bring the
ultimate mobile solution for the people with
dyslexia and dysgraphia." 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. For additional
