Grammarly — polish for shipping prose, not a ghostwriter

Catch tone and clarity misses before you hit send — that’s the job. It won’t invent your argument or fix a thin brief. Light writers on Free may never need Premium.

Good for high-volume email/docs Skip if rare writing Best if client-facing copy

What research and agencies say

  1. Always-on editing in the surfaces you already type

    Grammarly positions browser and app integrations for grammar, clarity, and tone suggestions where email and docs already live—purchase-justify when that loop is daily.

  2. Enterprise buyers get explicit trust/security materials to review

    Grammarly publishes trust/security materials for buyers evaluating data handling—use them; do not assume consumer defaults fit regulated text.

  3. GenAI features need the same review discipline

    When rewrite/generate features are on, NIST-style risk thinking still applies: verify meaning, do not paste secrets into uncleared tools.

The catch

Built-in editors (Google Docs, Word, Apple) cover a lot for free. Price Grammarly against mistakes you actually ship—not against a fantasy of perfect prose.

Who it’s not for

  • People who write a few short messages a week.
  • Writers who will accept every suggestion without reading (tone can go corporate-bland).
  • Anyone pasting confidential or regulated text into an uncleared consumer plan.

FAQ

Grammarly vs ChatGPT for editing?

Grammarly wins for always-on inline passes; ChatGPT wins for restructuring long drafts on demand. See /benefits/chatgpt/.

Free vs paid?

Free catches basics; paid features matter only if you use tone/clarity/rewrites weekly—check current plan pages.

Who should skip?

Rare writers and teams without a cleared data path.
