completeready

Completeready is a software toolkit designed to enable and optimize text completion features in user interfaces. It provides a framework for building autocomplete experiences across web, mobile, and desktop applications, covering input fields, search boxes, code editors, and chat interfaces. The project emphasizes fast response times, relevance-aware suggestions, and accessible design.

Core components include a client library for handling input events and rendering suggestion menus, and a server or local engine for generating candidate completions. The architecture supports asynchronous data sources, debounced queries, and parallel ranking. It also offers plug-in points for custom suggestion policies, such as domain-specific vocabularies or user personalization.

Typical features include context-aware suggestion ranking, support for multiple languages, keyboard and screen-reader accessibility, offline mode with local models, and privacy controls such as data minimization and opt-in telemetry. The toolkit is designed to be modular, allowing developers to swap backends or tailor the user interface to fit brand guidelines.

Use cases range from search interfaces with type-ahead and form field autofill to code editors with API completion and chatbots that propose next phrases. It is employed by both large-scale applications and smaller projects aiming to improve input efficiency and user satisfaction.

Development and licensing vary by implementation; there is no single governing standard for completeready. The term usually denotes a family of open-source projects, commercial SDKs, or in-house solutions sharing a common goal of improving predictive text input.
