Fleksy is a third-party, proprietary virtual keyboard app for Android and iOS devices (Needs to be checked, Google Play Store and the Apple App Store no longer feature this application). It attempts to improve traditional typing speed and accuracy through enhanced auto-correction and gesture controls. Fleksy uses error-correcting algorithms that analyze the region where the user touches the keyboard and feeds this through a language model, which calculates and identifies the intended word. Swiping gestures are used to control common functions, such as space, delete, and word correction.
Fleksy has introduced Fleksyapps, which are mini-programs and Fleksynext, its Smart Assistant that utilizes artificial intelligence capable of understanding intent, sentiment and context while typing.
In addition, Fleksy has released various Software Development Kits, including their Virtual Keyboard SDK and Predictive Text SDK, and In-App Keyboard SDK. This is in line with the app's stated mission to "democratize access to language input technologies."
