Our educational solutions center around the innovative WordQ® technology, initially introduced in 2001 and continuously refined in subsequent years.

WordQ serves as a user-friendly writing software tool designed to empower students, fostering improved writing quality, independence, and confidence. It offers ongoing support for students with learning differences like dyslexia, physical disabilities, and any individuals encountering barriers to writing. Additionally, it complements reading and writing instruction, particularly for students learning English or French as a second language.

Available in both English and French, WordQ software spans four platforms—Windows, macOS, iPadOS, and Chrome (including Chromebooks)—each tailored with unique features.

Across all versions, WordQ integrates state-of-the-art word prediction and text-to-speech functionalities, aiding students in word selection and proofreading. The software monitors keystrokes, presenting a list of predicted words and phrases consistent with the input. Students can audibly hear these suggestions and select them via keystrokes or mouse/trackpad. Moreover, a creative spelling feature assists in presenting desired words despite spelling errors.

On Windows and macOS, WordQ features a floating window interface, seamlessly interacting with various writing applications like word processors or email programs. Meanwhile, the iPad and Chrome versions provide similar assistance within a self-contained document editor.

Additional features, such as speech recognition available in the Windows and Chrome versions, offer alternatives for rapid text entry and overcoming initial writing obstacles.

Moreover, the Windows, macOS, and Chrome versions boast an accessible PDF viewer/editor, empowering students to engage with educational materials effectively. They can fill out forms, add annotations like sticky notes, and utilize WordQ's word prediction and text-to-speech support throughout the process.

This technology, termed intelligent assistance (IA), emphasizes active student participation in reading and writing rather than passive reliance. WordQ acts as a facilitator, encouraging independence and ease in expressing ideas, rather than writing on behalf of the student.

WordQ Desktop and iWordQ are completely secure and don’t require an internet connection, except to download and activate.

Schools can license WordQ Desktop and Chrome for individual students, in volumes, school-wide and district-wide.

iWordQ for iPads must be purchased from the Apple App Store.
