About this tool

What is Grammar Checker?

A grammar checker scans your writing for errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure. Modern AI grammar checkers go significantly further than basic spell check — they understand context, catching mistakes that look correct in isolation but are wrong in the sentence: wrong verb tense, subject-verb disagreement, contextual word confusion (affect vs. effect, then vs. than), and more.

Textora's free grammar checker doesn't just fix errors — it explains them. Every correction includes a plain-English explanation of the underlying grammar rule, so you understand why the change was made rather than blindly accepting a fix.
