Grammarly Review: Is This Grammar Tool Worth It? [2026 Updated]

Grammarly is not only a tool to proofread your article and make your content free from grammatical mistakes, but it will also assist you with many other great features, such as Plagiarism Checker & Vocabulary enhancement.

Let's discuss features of Grammarly;

1. Grammarly Plagiarism Checker Review:

I already told you above in this article that if you're an article writer or hired some writers, then it is a must having tool for you.

If you have hired writers to write content for your blog, then how you can check, if the article you've purchased is copied or fresh?

So, here, in this case, you need a plagiarism checker tool that can test the content you brought is copied or not.

So, Grammarly offers Plagiarism Checker tool along with many other smart grammar tools.

You can activate plagiarism checker from the left-hand sidebar options.

After activating this feature, Grammarly will scan the whole article and compare it with their database of 8 billion pages to check if your content is copied or 100% fresh.

You can see in the above screenshot how Grammarly Plagiarism Checker Tool scanned my copied text and tell us that content that I pasted there is copied from another web page.

2. Vocabulary Enhancement:

The next feature is Vocabulary Enhancement.

The vocabulary enhancement feature is one of my favorite feature of Grammarly Premium because it is able to scan whole content to detect which words we used many times in the same content and suggest you few other similar words to replace them.

You can activate this feature from the left-hand sidebar options. Look below screenshot for more information.

3. Contextual Spelling Errors:

If you think why to use Grammarly if you already have MS Word which is the best tool available to all Windows users, then please think again, because there is a huge difference between Grammarly and MS Word. 😉

Grammarly is intuitive and checks your writing errors which would be ignored while using MS Word.

For example, words like best and rest, a and an, next and nest, effect and affect, my and may, lie and lay are too much complex for grammar checker tool to detect these type of little errors.

But, If you're a Grammarly user, then you're safe from making these silly but dangerous mistakes because this grammar checker tool help you to identify all grammatical, punctuation, and spelling mistakes.

4. Repetitive Word Detection:

While writing a long note or even a blog post, we always used to write the same meaning words many times. For example, have a look at below given screenshot.

These type of small errors go unnoticed by us but not by the reader, and it can be a cause of losing readers.

Well, If you're a Grammarly Premium User then you're safe because it will help you in all of your writings work. It doesn't matter whether you're writing a short article or a long essay.

5. Advanced Grammar Rules:

Well, Writing free from grammatical error is not so necessary in social media, but in case, you are writing an essay or a long blog post, then you should write 100% grammatically perfect sentence because it will help you in impressing your readers as well as search bots also.

To write grammatically complete and mistake free sentence, you need to be good at grammar rules like as; subject-verb agreement, Past, Future, and Present sentence.

But If English is a non-native language for you, then it is impossible to write 100% correct grammar sentence.

That's why today I wrote this Grammarly Review to share its beautiful features and to give you some reasons to use Grammarly Premium account.

Grammarly inbuilt unlimited features which automatically detect your grammatical errors and notify you to fix them. This grammar checker points each mistake with red-green underlines, and when you hover on that red-green notification, Grammarly highlights the errors you made while writing and give you some right options to fix them.

Here you can say;
