WordQ™ can be used along with any standard writing software (e.g., Microsoft Word, WordPad, Notepad, or Outlook). When you type a letter, WordQ™ predicts what you might want to write and displays a list of correctly spelled words from which you can choose. When you see the word you want, you can choose it with a single keystroke or with the mouse. If you need help deciding which word to use, each word can be read aloud before you make a selection.

When you’ve finished typing your sentence, WordQ™ can read it back to you. Then you can hear if there are any mistakes such as missing words or punctuation. Often you can hear mistakes that you can’t see.

WordQ and Reading
WordQ is primarily a writing tool, but it can also assist with reading. Anywhere that text can be selected, you can hear it read aloud. This applies to popular programs like Facebook and Twitter, your emails or any of your favorite websites. It's also ideal for work and school-related tasks where reading and writing is required. By making sense of the words in front of you, listening, reading and writing skills are being developed at the same time.
