GRAMMAR AND SPELLING TOOL
Grammar Checker
Check spelling, grammar, and punctuation in your writing. The grammar checker spots typos, wrong words, doubled words, and missing capitals, and it shows you how to fix each one.
0
Paste your text on the left and the grammar checker will list every problem it finds, with a fix for each one.
Coverage
What the grammar checker looks for
Six checks run every time you press the button, and each one explains itself before you accept the fix.
Spelling
Finds the words that are most often typed wrong, such as "recieve" or "seperate".
Grammar
Detects missing apostrophes, the wrong article, and words repeated twice in a row.
Punctuation
Catches spacing before and after punctuation, doubled marks, and missing full stops.
Capitalization
Flags sentences that begin with a lowercase letter, including the first word of the text.
Readability
Scores the text with Flesch Reading Ease and the Flesch-Kincaid grade level.
Style notes
Points out sentences that run long and counts the passive voice constructions in your text.
How to use the online grammar checker
Paste a paragraph, an email, or a whole article into the text box and press Check grammar. The results panel lists every problem in the order it appears, so you can work through them from the top down. Each entry names the issue, shows the exact text that caused it, and explains what is wrong in a sentence.
When the correction is unambiguous, click the issue to apply it. The text is rewritten in place and the checker runs again, so you always see the result of the change you just made. If you would rather fix everything at once, Apply all fixes repairs every mechanical problem in a single step.
Under the checker, the statistics strip shows the word count, sentence count, estimated reading time, the Flesch Reading Ease score, the Flesch-Kincaid grade level, and the total number of issues. A reading ease score in the eighties means the text is easy to read; below sixty usually means the sentences are long or the words are complex. These numbers are useful for editing, but they are a guide rather than a verdict.
Like every tool on this site, the grammar checker runs entirely in your browser. Your draft is never uploaded, never stored on a server, and never seen by anyone else, which matters when you are checking a private email or an unpublished manuscript.
Need to change the capitalisation rather than the wording? The case converter on the home page handles upper case, title case, camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, and nine other formats in the same browser-only way.
