WProofreader is an alternative product for the SpellCheckAsYouType (SCAYT) plugin enabling extra functionality and a more convenient and freshly looking user interface with flexible customization options. When migrating from SCAYT to WProofreader you still get access to the same set of features. Moreover, both SCAYT Both SCAYT and WProofreader use the same engines thus providing and provide the same quality of spelling or grammar check. But when migrating from SCAYT to WProofreader you receive access to the additional features. 

You can use WProofreader in:  

  • CKEditor 4 as well as for other text editors, for example, CKEditor 5, TinyMCE 4/5, Froala Editor, TinyMCE, Quill, Kendo UI (see the demos on our website);
  • HTML editable controls such as input and textarea;
  • Elements with a contenteditable attribute such as div, iframe, and others.

...

  • Modern UI, faster performance, and improved usability;
  • More options for UI and behaviour customization for both on-premise and cloud versions;
  • Proofreading in a separate dialog mode convenient for large textsdialogue as the alternative proofreading mode;
  • Spelling autocorrect and text autocomplete suggestions;Until now, it was required to purchase subscriptions for two separate products when using SCAYT and the already deprecated WebSpellChecker Dialog (WSC) plugins.
