Solomon — A compact input method
A consonant-first Japanese input inspired by Farsi letters — fewer symbols, clearer typing.
What it solves
Written Japanese mixes three systems (kanji, hiragana, katakana) which can make typing and reading messy. Solomon introduces a compact approach: a consonant-first input using a small set of Farsi-derived letters tailored for Japanese, reducing visual clutter and keystrokes.
Key features
Minimal alphabet
Only the essential consonant shapes — easy to learn, fast to type.
Context-aware
Smart mapping for kana combinations and common Japanese syllables.
Compact keyboard
Designed for mobile: fewer keys, larger hit targets, faster input.
Privacy-focused
No cloud processing by default — all transliteration happens locally.
How it works
- Type a consonant shape (based on simplified Farsi letters).
- Select vowel context when needed — only five vowels to choose from.
- System transliterates into kana/kanji candidates intelligently.
This approach reduces on-screen clutter and speeds up composition — especially for users comfortable with consonant-first alphabets.
