Our take

Our assessment

Grammarly is the writing assistant most people meet first because it works inside nearly every text field: browser extension, mobile keyboard, desktop app and Office. The grammar and clarity suggestions remain the strongest part; the generative features are convenient but no better than a general chatbot. Be aware that the extension reads what you type in order to work, which is a real privacy trade-off for sensitive documents.
