Home/AI Writing/Grammarly
The last English pass before you send — not the place you start a draft.
Grammarly sits late in my flow: structure and facts exist; what remains is grammar, articles, and whether the note sounds like a scolding. Inline underlines force a decision on each spot. That is different from a chat model rewriting the whole block and softening a promise I meant to keep sharp. Tone suggestions help if you turn off the overly friendly ones; otherwise formal mail becomes eager. Chinese is not the home field. Mixed technical lines need a human; product names get common-nounced. I rarely use its generate feature — that returns you to a generic model with no memory of your wiki. The split with ChatGPT is clean: draft there, allow only correctness and tone here. Free catches common grammar; paid buys tone and genre, not domain knowledge. I do not run Chinese announcements through it, and I do not let it choose the argument. It is an English ruler.
People who send English mail, docs, and help articles. Writers who mostly work in Chinese can skip the subscription.
Forces a look at each mark
Underlines lose fewer hedges than “please polish this page.”
Tone you can aim
Formal, polite, and direct cover support and sales mail.
Lives in the box
Mail and forms do not need an extra paste.
Does not steal the draft job
Clear role: proof, not rewrite.
Chinese is not the job
Mixed lines and names still need you.
Can get too warm
Default tone tips sand off coldness or firmness you wanted.
Generate is extra
Blank-page long form belongs in the chat model you already know.
Write the promises yourself; scan grammar and accidental blame after.
Unify second person and step numbers; forbid merging separate warnings.
Fix tense and consistency; ban invented metrics.
No. Use free on the occasional English sentence.
It cuts cheap errors. Someone still owns the argument.
Treat the extension as your security policy says. Keep secrets off cloud proofing.
Yes. Structure in Notion, then a Grammarly pass.
Free: obvious grammar. Paid: tone and genre. Neither teaches your industry.
