Grammarly

The AI writing assistant that catches every mistake and improves your style.

Grammarly is the most widely deployed writing assistant in the world, available as a browser extension, desktop app, and native integration inside Microsoft Word and Google Docs. The free tier handles spelling and basic grammar errors reliably. Premium at $12/month on an annual plan adds tone detection, sentence-level clarity rewrites, a plagiarism checker, and full-sentence suggestions — the features most users actually need. Business at $15/user/month layers on a shared style guide so entire teams write with consistent voice.

GrammarlyGO is the AI drafting layer: it can generate first drafts, rewrite existing text, and adjust tone on command within any document you are already editing. The tool works across virtually every web interface without requiring copy-pasting anywhere. Its analysis is fast, unobtrusive, and accurate on surface-level issues, though it consistently misses the kind of structural or argumentative problems a human editor would catch.

Toolsift Verdict

Grammarly Premium is the right tool for anyone who writes functional English prose daily and wants a reliable safety net — customer support agents, content coordinators, non-native speakers, and anyone sending client-facing emails. The $12/month is justified by time saved on proofreading alone. Do not expect it to improve genuinely good writing or catch deep structural issues — for that you need a human editor or Claude. Think of it as spell-check evolved, not a writing coach.

✓ Pros

  • Works everywhere — browser extension covers all web apps
  • Tone and clarity suggestions go beyond grammar fixes
  • GrammarlyGO generates drafts from prompts
  • Business plan adds brand tone enforcement for teams

✗ Cons

  • Premium required for most useful AI suggestions
  • Can over-correct informal or creative writing
  • Less powerful than dedicated AI writers like Jasper for long-form content
