What's great

i’ve been using Grammarly for a while now, and overall it’s a solid tool. It catches most grammar and spelling mistakes and often helps me phrase things more clearly. The interface is clean and easy to use, and it works well both in the browser and in the app..

That said, some of its style suggestions can feel a bit off, especially when I’m writing something more creative or informal. I also wish some of the premium features were included in the free version.

Still, it’s definitely improved how I write in English and saves me time when I’m drafting emails or documents. Not perfect, but it does its job really well.

vs Alternatives

i chose Grammarly because it felt like the most complete option out there. I tried a couple of other grammar checkers before, but Grammarly’s interface was cleaner and the feedback made more sense. I also liked that it works across browsers and apps, so I can use it for emails, documents, and even quick messages. It just fits into my workflow without getting in the way..

How well does tone detection match my intent?

The tone detection works pretty well most of the time. It usually picks up whether I’m being too formal or too direct and gives useful suggestions to soften or adjust my wording. Sometimes it misreads my intent in more creative or sarcastic texts, but for regular emails and work writing, it’s spot on.

Does it handle long-form documents without lag?

For short and medium-length pieces, it runs smoothly. When I work on longer documents - like reports or essays - it can get a little slow, especially if I have multiple tabs or apps open. It’s not a dealbreaker, but you can notice a bit of lag with really large files.

How easy is onboarding and browser extension setup?

Setup was super simple - it only took a few minutes. The browser extension installed without any issues, and it started working right away in places like Gmail and Google Docs. The onboarding was clear, and I didn’t need to look up any tutorials to figure things out.

Grammarly's a useful tool to determine your common writing weak spots and work to correct them. I used it for years and made tons of progress in my writing as a result. However, as my writing skills have improved, I've found that using Grammarly too often will just make you sound the same as everyone else who uses Grammarly. I also had to delete it from my Macbook as it was holding my CPU and GPU hostage. My suggestion is once you've subsumed the correct writing protocols from Grammarly, leave it behind so you can find your own writing style again.

I'm Sr. Product Manager and poet. I've used Grammarly for a few years now. Initially, I used it to help me avoid making silly mistakes in emails. I keep using it because it also has helped me edit long-form blog posts and even poetry. It goes beyond fixing spelling mistakes and supports you with diversifying your vocabulary, improving sentence structure for readability, and achieving your desired tone. I recommend it for other writers and for anyone who is regularly emailing and wants to improve their professionalism and clarity.

I'm a student and I had subscribed to Grammarly Premium for 4 months. Its extension is useful in terms of grammar correction, which brings me confidence while generating my blog posts. The feature of words usage recommendation is the killer. It makes my writing more readable and concise. I think what I don't like about this product is its price, which is way too high due to its limited functionality. Most importantly, there has been lots of alternatives that offer similar features.

I use it daily as a supportive tool for my writing because English is not my first language. It's a clever tool that does so much more than spell-checking. I get (ACTUALLY) useful rephrasing suggestions, and it is easy to swap between synonyms. I recently found the plagiarism checker helpful too. It is also a great help directly in the browser, although that one is mostly spelling. *This review was written with the help of Grammarly! :)

Grammarly has helped me immensely in giving the final touches to my articles before publishing them to the world. Still, I'd recommend not using it at every stage of your writing process, as some of its suggestions might bog down your writing tone. I hate nothing about Grammarly, but it's Google Docs support. It's still in the beta version and doesn't work well at all.

Grammarly has been a fantastic tool for improving my writing skills and ensuring my content is polished and professional. The real-time suggestions for grammar, spelling, and style are incredibly helpful and save a lot of time. I appreciate how it highlights not just errors but also opportunities to make my writing more concise and engaging. The tone detection feature is a great addition, helping me tailor my writing to suit different audiences. I also love how it integrates seamlessly across platforms, from emails to documents, making it super convenient to use. Overall, Grammarly is more than just a spell checker; it's like having a personal writing assistant that helps me communicate more effectively every day!"

Congratulations on adding GrammarlyGO; it's a game-changer and adds significant value when compared with similar apps :) Just one thing to point out: we are missing languages. I know that English accounts for nearly 59 percent of web content, but Spanish speakers need you as well.

I am a content writer and a visual creative strategist. I use this most of the time to keep my sentences vibe appropriate to readers.. Using the free version because it already has so many features that suffice me for my day-to-day tasks...
