Antidote – In a single operation, Antidote’s corrector flags a wide variety of errors: from capitalization and verb agreement to unwelcome commas and redundancies. Hover over an error to see suggested corrections and see their explanations pop up in a tooltip, then click to confirm them. After correcting spelling and grammar, move on to typography and style, where you will be warned about any repeated words or commonplace verbs. Even dates and numbers can be flagged thanks to the 200 smart filters that highlight relevant passages. No software has ever given you so much power to refine your writing.

What’s New in Antidote 10:
120 new features in interface, functions and content
Amongst some 120 new features for English and French, the corrector now
helps in writing more inclusively and more legibly. The dictionaries
bring together both languages by offering the translation of 2.5 million
words and expressions. Users may now also take advantage of a new
optional service allowing them to synchronize their personal
dictionaries on multiple devices.
Let yourself be amazed by the new French Module
Purchase the French Module for Antidote 10 (with the Premium Upgrade,
for example) and see your definitions dictionary display over 800,000
translations of all words, expressions and proverbs. Even better, our
linguists have translated 1,700,000 combinations going both ways, with
examples to support them all.
Two eagerly-awaited new filters – Readability and Gender Neutrality
The readability filter underlines long words and sentences, rare or
foreign words, abbreviations and nested phrases. It even includes the
new Antidote readability index, from zero (hardly readable) to 100 (very
readable). The gender neutrality filter points out ways to ensure an
equal representation of men and women in your text, for example where
names of professions are used.
New words
Over 8,000 new words and expressions have been added, such as
binge-watch, facticide and hoverboard, along with 117,000 new synonyms
and 26,000 combinations.
Smart synonyms
The synonym lists are now sorted by proximity with the headword, giving you quick access to the most relevant alternatives. This applies not only to the synonyms dictionary, but also to the corrector, where Antidote suggests synonyms to help you avoid repetitions.
