3. What is Adaptxt?
Adaptxt is the next generation of text input software, providing text entry assistance on hard keyboard and
touch-screen devices. Adaptxt powered by Predictive Text2.0 engine provides accurate and relevant next
word prediction, error-correction & word completion inputs by combining the best of artificial intelligence
and computing technology.
As the user starts typing, the Adaptxt keyboard provides word suggestions in the Suggestion Bar and starts
learning and adapting to the user’s writing style, to provide personalized suggestions. Adaptxt provides two
types of add-on dictionaries:
Language dictionaries:
These dictionaries work simultaneously and provide multilingual suggestions to users who need to move
quickly between different languages during text input. Each dictionary comes with a language specific onscreen keyboard.
Industry-specific dictionaries:
These dictionaries provide industry-specific terminology, acronyms, company names and web addresses.
They cater to different professional sectors such as Medicine, Business, Law, Finance, and IT & Telecom.
These dictionaries are also available in multiple languages.
The Language and Technical add-ons can be downloaded from Adaptxt’s Add-on manager, as explained in
the following sections.
