Lightkey

What do you like best about Lightkey?

I don't know how it is done, but Lightkey truly seems to learn what I want to write based on its monitoring of my past texts.

So, over time, the suggestions improve, and I simply acknowledge its proposed suggestions.

So, creating text speeds up substantially.

Installation is a breeze - install and forget.

Lastly, Their tech support is second to none.

So it lives on all my Windows pcs.

What do you dislike about Lightkey?

Sigh...

Punctuation marks: Yes, I do not need a space before a comma, colon, etc.

Requires manual correction. Sadly.

But maybe I do not (yet) use it properly.

What problems is Lightkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

Straight forward:

I work through writing. Documents, emails, proposals, messages.

And with Lightkey, I get more done with less effort.

What do you like best about Lightkey?

This software considerably shortened and improved my typing.

In my line of work I send out a lot of email and write a lot of documents and reports, and Lightkey has allowed me to get this done faster, and with a higher quality of writing using its predicitions.

I have the Pro version, and it's completely worth it.

What do you dislike about Lightkey?

Migrating Lightkey licenses to another computer.

What problems is Lightkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows me to quickly draft up email answers, and improves my language in documents I write at work.

What do you like best about Lightkey?

Two things: 1) the prediction quality and 2) the way it fixes typos. Item 2 especially is a game changer. I've increased my typing speed substantially due to how good it is.

What do you dislike about Lightkey?

It'd be great if the product was available on multiple sites and apps that it's not on today. Perhaps a bigger issue is that it's windows only, so gettting a Mac is off the table for me for now.

What problems is Lightkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

Making me type much faster and fix my errors in a split second. It can handle almost any typing speed and precision relatively trivially.

As I type this, Lightkey's "Anywhere Technology" is predicting my next keystrokes (and correcting the ones I mistyped). This feature is new, and it goes to illustrate how innovative the program is. Sure, the program itself is based on machine learning, but the company is always updating the program with new features to maximize its potential. As a tax attorney and legal author, I spend my life researching and writing. Before, I used dictation to increase my efficiency. I lost the precision that comes with thinking through a sentence while typing. Once I tried Lightkey, however, it bridged the gap between efficiency and precision. I save, on average, 2 hours a month drafting with Lightkey enabled. This may not seem like much, but multiply that by my billable rate, and my annual Lightkey license has paid for itself a hundred-fold since I bought it.

The program is unintrusive, intuitive, and such a pleasure to use. I had to switch computers, and I had an issue with deactivating my license on the first computer to reactivate it on the new one. I emailed Lightkey's support team, and less than twenty-four hours later, not only had they replied, but they had taken care of the issue on their end, and I could easily activate it and import my data from the previous computer. They even followed up to make sure that I had been successful. What a great product, and what a great company!

What do you dislike about Lightkey?

The only issue I have encountered is using Lightkey when Microsoft's text prediction features are enabled. It is absurdly easy to disable Microsoft's predictive typing, which is far inferior to Lightkey's AI learning program. So the fix was simple, and I have not experienced any issues since disabling it. I cannot think of anything that I dislike about the program or wish that it featured. Every time the company pushes out a new update with new features, I find something I didn't know I needed, but which is invaluable to my typing efficiency, nonetheless.

As noted above, Lightkey has bridged the gap between being efficient with my time and being precise with putting my thoughts into cogent, well-intentioned sentences. Dictation offered maximum efficiency on the front end, but then I would spend far more time editing and revising what I had dictated. With Lightkey, I do not sacrifice the efficiency on the front end of drafting, and because I am typing rather than dictating, my thoughts are expressed much more clearly the first time around. This means that I save substantial time on the back end with editing and revisions. It is ideal for my practice and my writing articles for journals and other publications.

What do you like best about Lightkey?

After a very easy and quick installation, I am asked about my preferred topics and industry. According to my answers, dedicated dictionaries are imported. Using Lightkey I can save a lot of time and stress when writing fast and reducing spelling and grammar mistakes. English is not my native mother language, here I benefit most.

I can also backup and save my profile which is trained over the years. I also like that it not only helps in my Outlook Email but also when writing on the web, in Microsoft Applications, Gmail, Linkedin, Salesforce and much more.

What do you dislike about Lightkey?

I am working on multiple devices and my Pro License is only assigned to one machine. Multi machine support for one single user seems to be on the roadmap.

What problems is Lightkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

slow writing, auto-completion with phrases I use very often, reducing spelling and grammar mistakes
