What it is

Grammarly checks spelling, grammar, clarity and tone as you type in the browser, desktop apps, mobile keyboard, Word and Google Docs. Pro adds full-sentence rewrites, plagiarism and AI-text detection, and 2,000 generative AI prompts a month. It is now part of Superhuman, alongside Coda, Superhuman Mail and the Superhuman Go assistant.

Latest: Grammarly's parent company renamed itself Superhuman in October 2025 and added the Superhuman Go assistant to the Grammarly extension.

Pros and cons

  • Works almost everywhere you type: browser, desktop, mobile keyboard, Word and Docs
  • The most dependable grammar and clarity checks for English
  • Free plan is genuinely useful
  • Pro bundles plagiarism and AI-text detection
  • Monthly billing ($30) is expensive compared with the annual price
  • Its AI drafting is weaker than dedicated chatbots for long-form writing
  • The extension reads everything you type, which raises privacy questions for some
