ProWritingAid

ProWritingAid is a style checker that goes beyond simple grammar: it generates detailed reports on clarity, repetitions, sentence rhythm, clichés, and passive voice, with educational explanations rather than just automatic corrections. The tool installs as an extension in Word, Google Docs, or Scrivener, or runs as a standalone web editor. The free plan is limited to 500 words and two reports per day, sufficient to test the tool but not for regular use. The Premium plan (€30/month or €120/year) removes these limits; Premium Pro (€36/month or €144/year) adds live writing workshops and in-depth chapter feedback. A lifetime version exists starting from €399, without recurring subscription.

ProWritingAid is explicitly limited to English: the publisher specifies on its website that the tool only covers English variants (British, American, Australian, Canadian) and does not correct or generate text in French. It is therefore suitable only for an SME or freelancer writing in English, for example for export markets, or for a student preparing a thesis in English. The tool does not document a public API: integrations are limited to text processing extensions (Word, Google Docs, Scrivener, Vellum) and browser extensions, with no connector to a CMS or editorial project management tool. No mention of GDPR or EU data residency appears on the site, which remains entirely focused on the English-language market, including for billing and customer support.
