What Grammarly does

Who it’s for: anyone who writes in English at work when it isn’t their first language: emails to customers abroad, meeting notes, presentations.

Fix mistakes wherever you write

Grammarly underlines spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes in red, in your emails, your documents, and on websites. One click on the underlined word applies the correction.

Rewrite a whole sentence

Beyond mistakes, Grammarly offers to rephrase a heavy or awkward sentence: clearer, shorter, more natural. Blue underlines mark these suggestions.

See and set the tone

Grammarly tells you how your message is likely to come across: friendly, curt, hesitant. On the paid plan, it offers a version with the tone adjusted in one click.

Also

  • Write and reply for you
  • Correct French and 23 other languages
  • Translate text
  • Spot plagiarism and AI-written text
  • Grammarly Docs and assistants

Nova’s advice

If you write mostly in French, stay on the free plan, or look at LanguageTool and Antidote instead. The Pro plan is worth its price if you write in English several times a week and want sentences that sound right, not just free of mistakes.

A first try, in 5 minutes

Your data. Your writing is sent to Grammarly’s servers in the United States to be corrected, and by default it is used to improve the product on free accounts and Pro accounts bought online.

What it does less well

  • The tool is designed for English. In French, basic corrections are free, but advanced suggestions are limited and several features are available only in English. It does not tell apart the variants of a language (French from France, from Quebec).
  • The website, settings, and help are in English.
Have an email in English checked before you send itGrammarly
  1. Open your email in the browser where you just installed the extension, and start a new message.
  2. Write three or four sentences in English to a customer, without being careful: confirming a meeting or sending a quote.
  3. Look at the words underlined in red. Click one: the correction appears. Click it to accept.
  4. Blue underlines suggest clearer or more natural wording. Read the suggestion before you accept: you decide.
  5. Click the pencil or lightbulb icon to the left of the paragraph to open AI writing, then type the prompt below.
  6. Read the result. If the meaning has changed, undo and keep your version.

The prompt to copy

Make this email shorter and more polite. Keep the delivery date and the price.
