...QuillBot. I am sure some of you are using Grammarly for your write-ups or compositions here and there. I found a better version of it through the help of QuillBot. One of my online stunts recommended it and here, I wanted to share to all of you. The site's platform has lots of features to use, such as paraphrasing, grammar checking, etc. I do not want to spoil the facts about it. You can check it out since it is free to register here. Did you hear about this site? Are you using it now? Any good or bad feedback? Image Credit: timeshighereducation.com

I’ve never used as you can tell by my writing. I like to use my own voice.

That's a great advantage of being a native speaker. As for me, I am still considered a learner in using the English language despite being a teacher of this second language for non-native speakers.

@Shavkat You’re far ahead of me. English is my only language.

Oh, wow, might try it also. I am using Grammarly for free too but they are good at correcting spelling and some minor grammar usage and punctuations. Other than that you need to upgrade to premium to get the best of it.

I think it is also the same if you wanted to do a higher-level thing on QuillBot. You can upgrade to premium. I like it because it can detect plagiarism and paraphrase sentences.

@Shavkat I prefer the paraphrase option since it rewrites the statement in a more appealing manner. With the Grammarly free plan, this is not the case. I haven't tried out the plagiarism detection. One feature that is missing is the ability to interface with Word and other desktop software, and I have yet to find their smartphone apps. I believe it would be amazing if they had a Grammarly-like version as well.

@rsa101 I agree. It is also what makes it calls my attention to. Grammarly cannot paraphrase.

@LadyDuck That's the reason why it is not ideal to use sometimes.

Grammarly is not that accurate when it comes to grammar per see. You are welcome.

@Shavkat While Grammarly can spot many mistakes in your text it isn't perfect. As all those softwares it is far to be a replacement for a human eye. A Grammarly review performed by grammar experts claims that Grammarly only found thirty mistakes out of forty three (ONLY 72% accuracy).

I have never heard of this site. I normally do not make grammatical mistakes. However, I have downloaded Grammarly in my computer for proper punctuation.

Nice, thanks for the heads up. Grammarly got me fired one time trying to follow to closely. I am not sure how to explain it, but they say no, this not right. Try it this way and then I would go that sounds worse. Then they do not even explain why that way is wrong. If you say that is proper though. I guess will go with that since you the experts. I mean I guess common sense is involved but to me grammar in English does not make a whole lot of sense for the common man. I am amazed how how good Filipino's like you write pretty well. I live here and was never good whats an adjective, a noun, pronoun, compound sentence? I am apparently great at compound sentences. I think English was made so smart people could always remain the smartest is what I think.

@Shavkat That actually makes sense, takes frustration to know frustration.

I must say that Grammarly is not accurate when checking grammar errors. Not all Filipinos are good at English, if I may say so. But then, some can communicate by using the language in a struggling manner. We sometimes called 'English carabao.'

I have never heard about that site but I pay for Grammarly premium because I need it for the writing assignments I get as it is required,

I think if you paid the premium, the Grammarly function is better than the free scheme. It is also the same with QuillBot, you can pay the premium for better usage of it. But I think QuillBot's features are better than Grammarly.
