Writing help that understands how you spell. Fixes dyslexic spelling and grammar — you approve every change. No account. Scribevo is a writing assistant built around how people with dyslexia actually write. Most spell-checkers are built for people who almost had the word right and need the last ten per cent. If you could get that close, you would not need help. Scribevo starts from the sound — so "fone", "becos", "havnt" and "defnatly" are found the way you wrote them, not the way a dictionary expected. You type: i realy wnt to fon my freind becos i havnt spoke to him Scribevo: I really want to phone my friend because I haven't spoken to him. QUIET BY DESIGN Many people who need this tool have spent years getting work back covered in red. Scribevo shows one suggestion at a time. No score. No underlines everywhere. No badge telling you how wrong you are. Nothing is ever changed until you accept it. Scribevo shows you exactly which words it would change and why, and you decide. WHAT IT FIXES • Phonetic spelling — fone, becos, skool, enuf • Missing letters and swapped letters — realy, freind, teh • Missing apostrophes — dont, havnt, couldnt • Similar-sounding words — should of, your welcome, alot • Verb agreement and tense — he dont know, they was late, i havnt spoke • Capital letters and punctuation A DICTIONARY THAT WORKS BACKWARDS Search by how the word looks wrong. Type "defnatly" and Scribevo finds "definitely" — with how to say it and what it means. Because looking up a word you cannot spell is the oldest problem in the book. WHAT IT WILL NOT DO • It will not read your password, card number or security-code fields • It will not run on banking or sign-in pages • It will not replace more of your writing than the sentence it was given • It will not store what you write • It will not ask you to make an account CONTROLS • Alt+W to check what you are writing • Tab to accept, Escape to dismiss • Right-click any selection to check it • Turn Scribevo off for one site, or pause it everywhere • Adjust how long it waits before suggesting PRIVACY Scribevo sends only the sentence being checked — never your whole document, the page, or its address. Nothing you write is kept on our servers, and there is no account. The AI stage is processed by Groq, in the United States. If you would rather nothing left your machine automatically, turn off auto-suggest and Scribevo will only check text when you ask it to. Full details: see the privacy policy link on this listing.
