Apple’s native keyboard APIs lack many features that are often needed by AI-powered keyboards.
For instance, keyboards may need to read the entire document to be able to spell-check and proof-read the text, let users type within the keyboard to prompt or type intents, etc.
👑 KeyboardKit Pro
KeyboardKit Pro unlocks features that make it easier to add AI-based functionality to a keyboard.
Full Document Reader
KeyboardKit Pro unlocks ways for the document proxy to read all text from any text field, by moving the text input cursor in ways that unlock more content.
See the proxy utilities article for more information.
Next Word Prediction
KeyboardKit Pro unlocks ways to use 3rd party tools like Claude and OpenAI to perform next word prediction. This makes autocomplete even better.
See the autocomplete article for more information.
Text Input
KeyboardKit Pro unlocks text input components that let you type directly within the keyboard. This lets you provide prompt-based features to your users.
See the text input article for more information.
