Co:Writer is our word prediction
software that works in conjunction
with any application you write in
like MS Word, Web Browsers,
Google Docs, Blogs, Email, and
more. As you type, Co:Writer
interprets spelling and grammar
mistakes and offers word
suggestions in real time.

This product has been quite
helpful to my students. Seeing
the words and being able to
hear them helps the students
make sure their writing makes
sense. CoWriter has also
helped one of my students to
become more motivated to
write because it can predict the
best course for his thoughts to
follow.
