Facts only: pricing, platforms, and capabilities. No winner declared.
How we pick alternatives
We only list a tool as an alternative when it shares one or more capability tags with Grammarly. Tags that every AI product could claim (having an API, offering templates, generating something) do not count toward that on their own. Category membership can boost ranking in the list but never replaces tag overlap. We do not score tools, invent reviews, or declare a winner: those would be ratings, and this site is a tracker.
