ClaroRead Features

 

 

Reading with High Quality Voices

ClaroRead includes eight high-quality voices that read anything from the PC clearly and accurately. Read in a Web browser, email, PDF, Word, OpenOffice and more.

With powerful highlighting features in Word and Adobe Reader ClaroRead can help users follow what’s being read on-screen.

Save the spoken text as an audio or video file for use in a range of phones, iPads and media players.

Scan Paper Documents and PDFs

ClaroRead Plus and Pro include powerful Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology that easily converts any PDF, textbook, photocopy or handout into an accessible format. Accessible PDFs can be created identical to the original document. Any on-screen text can be copied and scanned with OCR, then edited or read back. Scan directly from the screen to access eBooks and web content.

Advanced Spelling Support

With the advanced speaking spellcheck hear the suggestions and choose the right word with confidence. Spell check in any PC application with the check anywhere feature, while the dictionary tooltip retrieves definitions and translations for any word, anywhere on the screen.

Homophones are automatically highlighted and can be easily checked. There are 36,000 special common misspellings built in and over 100,000 dictionary definitions. The speaking dictionary allows users to check words anywhere, including Word documents and webpages.

Writing Support

Word prediction learns as the user types. Build multiple prediction dictionaries for different subject areas. Integrated reference dictionary and prediction dictionary with add-on dictionaries targeting specific subjects. Prediction supports ‘phonetic’ spellings and has a powerful ‘match anywhere’ feature as well as the traditional ‘completion’ mode.

 

Reading and Colour Support Tools

ClaroCapture allows users to capture images and text from webpages and documents to help write essays and organise references.

ClaroIdeas is our easy to use, powerful and fresh visual software solution for assisting with research, planning, outlining, studying and presenting.

ScreenRuler software provides a strip or ruler across the screen, which can change the contrast and have the background greyed, coloured or dimmed out, or tint the whole screen to make it easier to read.

Integration with Dragon Dictation Software

ClaroRead works alongside Dragon NaturallySpeaking to support hands-free dictation and proofreading of text. The echo feature of ClaroRead instantly speaks back text dictated into the computer with Dragon. 

Assistive

ClaroRead is the complete support package for those with dyslexia, learning difficulties, or anyone who struggles with reading and writing.

ClaroRead accurately identifies errors, building confidence.

ScreenRuler takes the stress out of reading. The combined ruler and colour overlay horizontal bar focuses the eye, while tracking words as they progress on-screen. Text is spoken out loud, increasing independence.
