So far so good
Excellent tool for proofreading
Kommentare: As a researcher, I must routinely compose scientific articles and academic reports. In my case, I frequently make errors in my writing, such as misspellings, grammatical errors, incorrect word choice, punctuation errors, improper sentence structure, etc. I address these issues by utilizing ProWritingAid. It addresses the majority of the aforementioned concerns and enhances the quality of writing.
Vorteile:
It has a special feature known as "data visualization" that helps to assess my writing. This feature really helps me to identify the lacking in my writing. It works nicely with Microsoft Word, a variety of browsers, and email. The most incredible thing about it is that it can recognize an incorrect word in a sentence and then offer the correct term to replace it. In addition, tools like spell check, grammar correction, sentence structure suggestions, and word suggestions all come in handy when I'm writing essays.
Nachteile:
The most annoying thing is that if I make a sentence with passive voice, it unnecessarily detects this structure and suggests changing the passive voice structure. In academic writing, I have to often use the passive voice structure. Secondly, I would say it is costly as compared to other similar tools, especially for the student.

One of the best investments for a writer
Kommentare: Extremely positive. It's been a major help with my career over the years, as I started out as a freelance writer. To this day, I promote a writing culture at my company and writing is part of my everyday responsibilities. It's not a flawless experience, but it's reasonably close to being one.
Vorteile:
One of the best ways to improve your writing is to just do it. But doing it blindly won't make you spot mistakes. ProWritingAid helped me do just that. It's one of the main things that improved my writing for the Web skills. I've been using it since 2018 and I'm using it to this day, even though my usage is getting more and more limited. My main goal when starting to use it was to simplify my writing style and make it more understandable for people, without sacrificing the quality of my content. With a few (out of LOADS) of reports, ProWritingAid helped me do that, and more. I use the Readability, Style, and Grammar reports. for everything I write, and then other reports depending on the situation and needs. I love that ProWritingAid has a lifetime plan and it's a tool well worth the money.
Nachteile:
The Web app has bugs here and there, but most of them get patched quickly. The uptime is high, probably 99.99%, but there have been a few instances when the site was down when I wanted to use it. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's also noticeable enough. And finally, the Chrome extension is rather unreliable and limited. I don't take it as a major flaw because it's just an extra feature on top of the Web app - but if it exists, it should work well. And it doesn't.
Great Tool for Extremely Short Texts, Monumental Fail Otherwise
Kommentare: Sharing my two cents about ProWritingAid that I purchased a lifetime licence for: If you're reviewing texts about 300 - 400 words in length at maximum, you'll be happy with the tool. Otherwise, it's not worth the money. If you need a short-term solution, then by all means go for it but don't pay a buck for actually using the SW. I've been using the Word add-on for over three months now and if you want to use most of the tools on more than 800 words, the tool simply can't handle the 'load.' Usually, it breaks off after a minute or so and you can run the check again which normally doesn't help. You end up wasting a ton of your time and accomplish nothing at all. While the language advice and the correction improvements you get recommended are helpful, you're better off using Grammarly or another alternative if you're reviewing long chunks of text in one go and don't want to constantly copy-paste from Word to their interface and back which is a pain if you have to do that daily like myself.
Vorteile:
Totally intuitive. If you know anything about how English, grammar and vocabulary alike, finding your way through the options and how they work will be a breeze. No learning curve. The tool as well as the report are perfectly self-explanatory. Easy-to-use online interface.
Nachteile:
Useless add-on when dealing with texts of 800+ words. Constant copy-pasting to and from the online interface wasting your time.
ProWritingAid: A Lifesaver for Accurate and Polished Writing
Kommentare: Overall, ProWritingAid has been a game-changer for my writing process. As a graduate student, having a reliable tool to help catch errors and refine my writing is crucial. ProWritingAid's detailed feedback has helped me improve my writing skills over time.
Vorteile:
ProWritingAid provides comprehensive feedback beyond simple grammar checks, offering detailed suggestions for improving style, structure, and readability. The tool's ability to catch errors that may be missed because of dyslexia is invaluable, ensuring that my work is judged on content rather than avoidable mistakes.
Nachteile:
The user interface can be a bit overwhelming at first,
Top of the line editing program
Kommentare: Excellent. I send every manuscript I write through the program multiple times and use it extensively.
Vorteile:
The number of editing tools is awesome and scary accurate.
Nachteile:
The editing pop-up should be placed at the top of the page to allow users to browse the entire written page.
A class act.
Kommentare: Less frustrating than thinking about commas.
Vorteile:
Swift and efficient way of working. It has enhanced my daily routine.
Nachteile:
No proper MacOS MS Word inline support. The pop ups for suggestions or sparks tend to get in the way of the text.
Simple and helpful editing software.
Kommentare: Great! I am so happy that I have a good editing tool to help me make writing my manuscript so much easier.
Vorteile:
Helpful suggestions.Grammar check. Phrase suggestions and progress reports to help keep me on track.
Nachteile:
Easy to use.Helpful and easy to download and use.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Exactly what I need, and a little bit more.
Kommentare: So far, I love it as a tool once I'm done writing. I haven't tried using it in real-time writing.
Vorteile:
There are so many mistakes that I make on the first drafts that catching as many as possible the next time around keeps me from having to do 10-12 rounds versus 3-4. Or maybe it's just me, but it works for me well.
Nachteile:
That I don't have a downloadable program that I can use on my PC offline.
PWA: My Essential Writing Tool
Kommentare: The service and support at ProWritingAid is excellent.
Vorteile:
I have used ProWritingAid for over five years and consider the platform an essential writing tools for my work.
Nachteile:
None. It just gets better and better. Would like to see some type of connection to my openai account.
Great product for big projects to day to day work
Kommentare: It does what it needs to do well, I don't ever need to think about it.
Vorteile:
Pro Writing Aid is there exactly when I need it. It not only makes suggestions for big, obvious problems, but also smaller suggestions for readability. Beyond just making suggestions, it also explains why it thinks I should word things differently.
Nachteile:
The in browser plugin can get in the way sometimes.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
ProWritingAid is ideal for Professionals and Students alike
Kommentare: Not a bad thing to say about ProWritingAid thus far. It's inexpensive, and has helped tune my writing style so I'm faster and more confident about it. With all the tweaking options available (and plug-ability), you're almost never without it. That said, Grammarly has its purpose, and I'd perhaps consider keeping free Grammarly around for its browser-based tool. While I'd advocate using both, if only choosing one I'd opt for ProWritingAid.
Vorteile:
I love how ProWritingAid plugs into MS Word and Scrivener, so both authors and other professionals can utilize the power of this service. The price is very affordable, and the features aren't matched by any competitors to my knowledge. It's great to also 'tune' PWA to your writing style, so it doesn't offer irrelevant suggestions. Another cool feature is Plagiarism checks, so if you hire blog content writers, you can check to see if their content is unique. The same is useful for students who want to check their work against internet sources.
Nachteile:
While ProWritingAid is great, for some platforms that requires short snippets of content like e-commerce product pages, you may be better off with Grammarly. This is because PWA has more of a 'style' focus rather than 'grammar' focus. Perhaps the ultimate approach is to start with PWA to get your writing style mastered offline, then use Grammarly for browser-based usage when writing emails and short snippets of online content (to not get style suggestions where its superfluous).
ProWritingAid review. Notes from a small island (in the south pacific)
Kommentare:
I've used the premium version for 18 months and have based my comments on my experience in that time. I use it both for work and for some of the creative writing I do.
I'm a massive fan of using technology to improve how I work and ProWritingAid is right up there as one of the most useful tools I use. It makes a significant difference to how long it takes me to write a document. I write fewer iterations and am more confident in the quality of my first draft because of it. I feel like it's not just correcting my grammar, but also helping me to become a better writer.
They have a free version as well as premium versions offering:
- monthly subscription
- yearly subscription
- lifetime license (approx 3.5x annual subscription)
I would strongly recommend it to anyone writing at work or at home. In my view, it is significantly better value than other editing and reviewing software on the market.
Vorteile:
I like the fact that I can use it everywhere. It's available in Word, Chrome, and Google Docs. There's even a desktop application. I like the real-time checker that identifies the quick fixes. But the real value is in the deeper reports. Don't be put off by the number of them - my advice is to have find out which ones you find most useful. My favourites are: 1. Thesaurus report, which lets me quickly find better words to use. 2. Readability report, which focuses me on areas that I can improve. 3. Sticky sentences report, which helps me get straight to the point. Once you know which ones you use most, you can combine them (it's called a Combo report) and with one click, you've got detailed analysis of your writing.
Nachteile:
All software has pros and cons. While ProWritignAid is no different, it is worth saying that they do seem focused on continual improvement. My main criticisms over the last 18 months have been: 1. No integration with Google Docs - this has now been released and works well. 2. It can be daunting how much it tells you about your writing but this is necessary - writing is complex. The more you use it, the better it gets. 3. When I was using the free version, the 500-word limit caught me out a few times. It's not an issue for any premium users, however.

ProWritingAid gives professional tools to everyone
Kommentare: I have edited over 3,000,000 words using this software, over several years. It is formidable, and thorough. From novels to articles, blog posts to emails ProWritingAid delivers the goods. It is flexible, and you can denote both tone and style.
Vorteile:
For instance, picking an Academic Style, with a formal tone, vs a Romance Novel and casual style. The suggestions can be modified according to native language as well! An excellent tool, and one I use every day.
Nachteile:
It has a bit of a tendency to initially be very conservative regarding passive / active voice and reading levels. While this is good for casual articles, when using it to proof academic papers, it can be too aggressive. Luckily, it is tunable. Another thing is that having to pay an additional fee to purchase 'credits' for use in detecting plagiarism is a bit problematic.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
My school life and my writer life has never had it easier!
Vorteile:
The readability checks along with the repeated word counter saves my papers and rough drafts and gives me a lot less work to do when I have to do hard edits.
Nachteile:
The only thing that I don't like is that the plagiarism checks are limited. If anything, I would wish that paying customers can get a certain amount of checks every time they renew their license.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Very useful for fast writing
Kommentare: Satisfied
Vorteile:
Fast, friendly word suggestions, nice extension. so far, everything.
Nachteile:
Look and feel of the Web tool and color pallet, but I am being picky right now
Best editing software on the market
Kommentare: I signed up for a ProWritingAid trial after reading a review about it. I'd been a paying client with Grammarly for years, but my experience with PWA during the trial period alone made me a convert, and I haven't looked back since. Fantastical product!
Vorteile:
ProWritingAid is an incredibly comprehensive editing software. How many of its editing categories you look at and implement is up to you and how much time you have available, but they're always there. The software stands head and shoulders above competitors in this regard. It's also, for the budget-conscious, a lot more affordable. True value for money - the best investment anyone who works with words in any capacity can make!
Nachteile:
Not sure if it's a glitch, but sometimes when I accept an edit, then undo, it's unable to. Also, it doesn't catch every single grammar mistake (9 times out of 10 it does, though), so I'd advise to have the free version of Grammarly installed as a backup.
The Best Writing Assistant Ever!!
Kommentare: The recent rise of AI content creators has many people posting articles that make little sense or not helpful. It's software like this that helps our articles stand out from the rest of the junk. The finished content after a quick run through with ProWritingAid is exactly what Google and people love.
Vorteile:

I am extremely impressed with this software and how it has helped me improve my writing.ProWritingAid is an automated grammar and style checker that helps you find and correct errors in your writing.

I also appreciate the helpful suggestions it provides to help refine and improve my writing.I highly recommend ProWritingAid to anyone looking to improve their writing. It is an incredibly useful tool that has enabled me to create higher-quality articles for my websites and clients.

ProWritingAid Indivitual Lifetime Buyer review
Kommentare: Overall, it is helpful but not the best, and I purchased it assuming it would unlock some exceptional hidden features that are not available in the free version. However, I don't think I noticed any surprising features. But as I have a lifetime membership, I am excited to see upcoming features, which I believe will be available as a lifetime buyer, so I am hoping for the best in the future.
Vorteile:
It gives several rephrases and synonyms for each selected world, if possible. It has a different reporting mechanism that helps determine the problems in long sentences, and it is more inexpensive than other grammar-checking platforms like Grammarly.
Nachteile:
It does not correct the sentence by suggesting grammar fixes; when I recheck the sentence with Grammarly after fixing it via ProWritingAid, Grammarly sometimes still gives grammar errors. Sometimes both ProWritingAid and Grammarly contradict each other. I used the paid version of Grammarly for a few months. I believe that saves time when you have to work quickly during the working day, and quick auto-suggestion works well in Grammarly.Sometimes, when I have to reply quickly to someone with a grammatically correct sentence, when responses are slow, even on a 300 KBPS fiber optic connection, I can't respond quickly, thus feeling messed up.
Great Choice for Secure and Smart Grammar Checking
Kommentare: It literally takes a couple of minutes to figure out the user-friendly tools and setting up reports to review your areas for improvement. The software is currently number one on my grammar checking software list because it does not simply focus on writing mistakes, but also the overall written quality. ProWritingAid ultimately creates a way for you to for you to develop your writing skills while providing a fresh, impacting, unique, and error-free output for readers to enjoy.
Vorteile:
It is a friendly editing, style, and grammar checker software that contains most of the useful features you could want as a professional, newbie writer, or editor. Once you have begun to use it, it takes less than ten minutes to figure it out. The software is intuitive and the toolbar is quick to understand and informative about your errors. It can easily locate repetitiveness in sentences, which I really like. Additionally, writers will be happy to know that Google Docs and Scrivener can be combined with ProWritingAid, which makes it a very convenient-to-use checker. I love that it is inexpensive and costs less than a hundred dollars for an annual subscription compared to other types of grammar software.
Nachteile:
There are a couple of minor downsides like being unable to make corrections when it comes to writing with textboxes online; this feature would have been handy. Second, the software has no extensions available for iOS, Firefox, or Safari integration. LaTex, a popular document preparation system, is also unfriendly with the software. Lastly, Mac users cannot use the software because there is currently no available plugin for Microsoft Word. The advantages weigh out the inconveniences overall and it will only affect you if you are particular about integrating it with other tools.
ProWritingAid is Only Worth For Fiction Writers
Kommentare: This tool is worth the effort assuming that you compose fiction broadly. It's the best grammar checker for fiction journalists as a result of its local help for Scrivener and extra composing reports which other sentence structure checkers don't offer. It's likewise worth the effort assuming that you esteem extra bits of knowledge about your composition, for instance, word-decision, similar sounding word usage, and so on. In the event that you don't compose fiction widely, it is as yet a helpful grammar checker given it fits around your composing work process. Indeed it has a few peculiarities, however, it's a reasonable and exact sentence structure checker for most writers
Vorteile:
Essential writing tool for fiction writers, in-depth review of your writing, great value for money, low CPU consumption, no monthly fee, and reports are very much insightful.
Nachteile:
Slower than other grammar checkers, the free version has its limitations, no Android version of the software, it gives unnecessary suggestions to improve, not integrated with Google Docs, and reports can be confusing and overwhelming.
My Thoughts On PWA
Kommentare: I am enjoying PWA. I have been a user for over two years - I am a journalist and creative writer - I put it through its paces the first year and a half to see where and how I would use it. I am still learning what it can do. There are times that PWA Everywhere can get in the way; but for the most part it is a very useful tool.
Vorteile:
I like having someone looking over my shoulder and helping me along with spelling and grammar. It's not always right, but it is good to have options.
Nachteile:
There are times it gets in the way and its suggestions are too far off base to be used. You can not just use it blindly you still have to think about what you are doing and what you want to convey to your audience.
Get the Extra Help
Kommentare: ProWritingAid has been a great tool to use in my writing: personal and professional.
Vorteile:
Realtime grammar and error check, spell check and recommendations, and the software helps you develop your own writing style.
Nachteile:
I would encourage you to check out the blogs and tips as there are things that the new users will miss/dismiss.
It's Cost Effective and Useful
Kommentare: It's a great proofreader and AI writing software. It's definitely worth the try.
Vorteile:
ProWritingAid is not just for fixing grammar and spelling; it's a full writing assistant that can assist in the sales process or any reason for your writing. Using this software, you can fix sentence structure, find excessive adverbs and adjectives, and show your pacing, sentence length graph, and readability score. With it, you have a personal editor in your pocket. It's simple and easy to use; and flags issues you may not see when hand-reading your drafts. It even offers improvements and consistency suggestions.
Nachteile:
There is no unlimited proofreading in the free version. Despite that, it's a great piece of software. Well worth checking out.
ProWritingAid: A Must Have For Writers!
Kommentare: Overall, ProWritingAid has helped our company to better communicate with our customers by giving us a writing edge. It has also helped us to better understand what and what not to write to customers and how to put perspective to context.
Vorteile:
ProWritingAid is a premium grammar checker and style editor for bloggers and business writers. It is also a very handy tool for anyone who writes content. It is a very accurate and powerful tool that is surprisingly easy to use and provides in-depth feedback on your writing. ProWritingAid eliminates common error types, inconsistent terminology, contextual spelling errors, and grammar mistakes. ProWritingAid is a great tool because it has plugins for Google Docs, Chrome browser, MS Word, and Outlook which is a great addition.
Nachteile:
ProWritingAid being a great software has some limitations. The first being that the free version has a 500-word limit which is a big limitation.
Best program for editing
Kommentare: Not only does this do a great job of highlighting a large variety of issues, there are also explanations and consistent usage has helped authors learn better writing habits in their future manuscripts. This company also has excellent customer service and continues to improve and add to the software. They also have an option for an extremely affordable lifetime purchase. By far better than other popular programs.
Vorteile:
The sheer number of options and variety of checkers in this program are incomparable. Absolutely the best program to use to prepare your writing. Two of my favorite features are the repeats and echoes. It does an excellent job of identifying repetitive phrases and words, and the same words used too closely together. It's harder for a human editor to pick up on that as consistently as a computer and in this specific area, I feel it does a better job than a person. Obviously no program can replace a human, but this one does a fabulous job of trying.
Nachteile:
I really have a hard time thinking of something bad to say about this software. I think there can be some improvements made in style choices and the thesaurus, but they aren't bad. I just feel like maybe they can be upgraded slightly.
