What is Swiftkey?
SwiftKey is an input method for Android and iOS devices such as smartphones and tablets. SwiftKey uses a blend of artificial intelligence technologies that enable it to predict the next word the user intends to type. SwiftKey learns from previous SMS messages and output predictions based on currently input text and what it has learned.
The company behind SwiftKey was founded in 2008 by Jon Reynolds and Dr Ben Medlock. It now has over 160 staff, its head office in Southwark, London, and other offices in San Francisco, US and Seoul, South Korea. In September 2013, SwiftKey announced a series B finance round totaling $17.5m and led by Index Ventures along with Octopus Investments and Accel Partners. Source: Freebase.
Input Method
An input method is an operating system component or program that allows any data, such as keyboard strokes or mouse movements, to be received as input. In this way users can enter characters and symbols not found on their input devices. Using an input method is obligatory for any language that has more graphemes than there are keys on the keyboard.
For instance, on the computer, this allows the user of Latin keyboards to input Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Indic characters; on many hand-held devices, such as mobile phones, it enables using the numeric keypad to enter Latin alphabet characters or a screen display to be touched to do so. On some operating systems, an input method is also used to define the behaviour of the dead keys. Source: Freebase.
