Collected for Word

Collected for Word is a user-friendly piece of software designed to function as a Microsoft Word add-in which enables you to connect to all your cloud accounts and access the documents you store on them, using their contents as inspiration for your current writing.

The utility requires MS Word 2010 or 2013 to function properly, and once installed, you can find it in the ‘Add-ins’ tab. You also need to register an account using a valid email address, a password and other details about you.

Once you have validated your account, you can begin connecting with the various cloud services you use, as Collected for Word supports Google Drive, Box, OneDrive or Dropbox.

Once you have logged in to your account, the tool grants you access to all the documents you keep on the cloud. The data will be separated into ‘Files’, ‘Snippets’ and ‘Slides’, thus allowing you to choose which type of data to be displayed for maximum productivity.

As such, when you start typing, Collected for Word analyzes your phrases and reveals similar pieces of text found in the other documents, enabling you to quickly insert them in your file, rather than waste time trying to come up with a version of an already existing document.

This tool can prove quite useful in several situations, such as for businesses whose employees are required to write articles or contracts, even reply to emails. By giving you access to common-themed files, you can save time and increase your productivity with little effort.

To conclude, Collected for Word is a practical and intuitive Microsoft Word add-in that can help you produce standard and even creative texts more easily, by offering you snippets with the same topic and enabling you to get inspiration from them.
