Grammarly
Grammarly is an American English language writing assistant software tool. It reviews the spelling, grammar, and tone of a piece of writing as well as identifying possible instances of plagiarism. It can also suggest style and tonal recommendations to users and produce writing from prompts with its generative AI capabilities.
Grammarly was developed in Ukraine and launched in 2009 by Alex Shevchenko, Max Lytvyn, and Dmytro Lider. It is available as a standalone application; a browser extension for Chrome, Safari, and Firefox; and as an add-on for Google Docs.
Grammarly is developed by Superhuman Platform Inc., which is headquartered in San Francisco and has offices in Kyiv, New York, and Vancouver.
Grammarly was founded in 2009 by Max Lytvyn, Alex Shevchenko, and Dmytro Lider. The company initially offered a subscription-based product intended to help students improve their grammar and spelling. That product was subsequently developed into a writing assistant that checks the grammar, spelling, and tone of a piece of writing.
By 2015, Grammarly had one million active daily users. That same year, it began offering its flagship product via a freemium model that allowed all users access to the product's basic capabilities while placing more sophisticated features like style recommendations and plagiarism detection behind a paywall. It also launched a browser extension for Chrome, Safari, and Firefox, as well as an add-on for Google Docs.
In 2017, Grammarly raised $110 million in its first funding round.
In 2019, Grammarly added a tone detector to its writing assistant. This tool uses set rules and machine-learning to help users gauge the character of their writing and tailor it to a particular audience. That same year, the company held a second funding round, raising $90 million. In 2020, Grammarly made its first investment in an outside company, participating in a $10 million funding round for Docugami, a company working on AI-driven document generation. In 2021, Grammarly raised another $200 million, at a total valuation of $13 billion, via its third funding round. By this point, Grammarly had approximately 30 million users.
Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Grammarly ceased all business operations in Russia and Belarus. The company also announced that it would donate all the net revenue it had earned in Russia and Belarus since 2014, about $5 million, to Ukrainian humanitarian groups. Additionally, the company paid the salaries of Ukrainians who left their jobs at Grammarly to join the nation's army and made its product free for Ukrainian journalists publishing news about the war in English.
