We (a team of people with dyslexia) have made, what we consider,
a technological breakthrough in context spelling.

The start of new technology is a free on-line speller at
www.ghotit.com, which is:

- context-aware and context correcting;
- phonetic;
- copes with large editing distances;
- iterative;
- provides description sentences for spelling candidates;

Text-to-speech for our web-site is available for Internet Explorer -7.

Testing at our large corpus of the texts written by the kids and adults with
dyslexia,
we get above 90% of correction success, where the best editors are
below 45%.

Users are telling us, that they are really assisted by the site,
and such references serve for us as a source of inspiration.

Some people are considering Ghotit as the best spelling tool EVER:

>From Teaching Every Student Ghotit received the title "the BEST spell

checker for students"

.
Please, tell us, what you think.

Thank you in advance.

Yours faithfully,
