In one example, a method includes outputting, by a computing device and for display, a graphical keyboard comprising a plurality of keys, and receiving, by the computing device, an indication of a gesture detected at a presence-sensitive input device. The method further includes determining, by the computing device, an input posture of the gesture at the presence-sensitive input device, and applying, by the computing device and based at least in part on the input posture, at least one offset to a location associated with a key from the plurality of keys to determine an offset location associated with the key, and in response to receiving the indication of the gesture, selecting, by the computing device and based at least in part on the offset location, the key as a selected key.
