Grammarly Is Rebranding Itself as 'Superhuman.' Here's What's Changing
Macy has been working for CNET for coming on 2 years. Prior to CNET, Macy received a North Carolina College Media Association award in sports writing. Grammarly, best known for its writing assistance software, announced Wednesday that it is rebranding as Superhuman as it focuses on a broader suite of AI productivity tools. Founded in 2009, Grammarly has built a user base of more than 40 million people and expanded in recent years with the addition of the workspace platform Coda and email service Superhuman Mail. With its new identity, Superhuman intends to become a full AI productivity platform that operates quietly in the background of everyday work, according to the company's announcement post. The new Superhuman brand is an effort to build an "AI-native" platform designed to work across the tools people already use by combining the functions of each brand into one bundled subscription. The rebrand also includes the launch of a new product called Superhuman Go, an AI assistant that can operate across multiple apps and workflows. "Superhuman represents a fundamental shift in how we think about AI at work," said Shishir Mehrotra, CEO of Superhuman. "The name Superhuman reflects our belief that AI should amplify human capability, not replace it or force people to adapt to its limitations." Don't miss any of our unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. Add CNET as a preferred Google source. What to know about Superhuman Go Superhuman Go is designed to help users manage everyday tasks by automatically pulling in relevant information and performing small actions across connected tools. For instance, it can retrieve account details from a CRM when composing an email, summarize previous meeting notes or file a bug report for engineering teams. The assistant connects to over 100 apps, including Google Workspace, Microsoft Outlook, Jira and Confluence. It uses what the company calls "agents," small AI modules trained for specific tasks like summarizing or retrieving data. Chief Product Officer Noam Lovinsky said the goal is to reduce friction rather than add new tools to manage. "While other AI tools ask you to change how you work, Go learns how you work and meets you there," he said. "It's the difference between having an AI tool you have to remember to use and having an AI partner that's actively working with you." Superhuman suite and agent platform The broader Superhuman suite now includes Grammarly's writing features, Coda's collaborative workspace and Superhuman Mail's inbox tools. Combined with Go, the suite is meant to create a more unified experience across writing, communication and project management. Superhuman is also introducing an Agent Store, which features a range of built-in and partner-developed AI agents. Early partners include Common Room, Fireflies, Latimer, Parallel, Radical Candor, Quizlet and Speechify. The company plans to expand this set through an Agents SDK, currently in a closed developer beta, which will allow third parties to build their own connected agents. The Superhuman suite is now available to paying users, featuring its new Go assistant and network of AI agents, which are live on the company's Chrome and Edge extensions. Versions for Mac and Windows are on the way, and all Go features will remain free to try until Feb. 1, 2026. Superhuman's launch and expansion happen amid a broader wave of productivity AI tools that blend writing, research and communication in one workspace. Google's NotebookLM, for example, turns uploaded documents and transcripts into summaries and learning guides, and OpenAI and Google have launched ways to use generative AI to create slide decks and presentations. This comes during a time of growing interest in productivity tools for both work and personal life, like using "agents" to schedule planning, cooking, exercising, shopping, traveling and beyond.

Grammarly changes its name to Superhuman - and its mission to AI wrangler
The company also debuted an AI assistant called Superhuman Go. The rise of generative AI in recent years has caused a massive strategic reorientation across the tech industry, as companies have scrambled to launch their own AI-powered products and services. Perhaps most memorably, Meta -- which three years ago changed its name from Facebook to signal its shift toward the metaverse (remember that thing?) -- announced that 2023 would be its "year of productivity," focused in large part on a pivot toward AI. Also: GitHub's new Agent HQ gives devs a command center for all their AI tools - why this is a huge deal Now, AI writing tool Grammarly has become the latest company to rebrand itself with an emphasis on AI. The company announced Wednesday that it's changed its name to Superhuman, a direct nod to the idea that AI will supercharge human creativity and productivity, rather than replace them -- a pervasive marketing theme across the tech world. Here's what's new, how to try it, and what it indicates about where AI ROI is headed. In addition to the name change, the company is also launching a new AI assistant, dubbed Superhuman Go. Its primary function is to orchestrate several different agents and adaptively determine which one is best suited to assist users with a particular writing or editing task. Also: Why open source may not survive the rise of generative AI Superhuman Go is part of the company's new Superhuman suite, available now to all paid users, which also includes Grammarly -- it's not being retired, just absorbed into the new Superhuman product portfolio. You'll also get access to Coda (an AI-powered workplace productivity and collaboration platform that Grammarly acquired in December), and Superhuman Mail (a new feature that leverages AI agents to organize users' email inboxes). In an interview with ZDNET, Luke Behnke, vice president of product for enterprise clients at Superhuman (formerly Grammarly), said that while the original name for the company worked well since its founding in 2009, it's become constrictive as the company's goals -- along with the priorities within the tech industry more broadly -- have evolved. "We have bigger ambitions than grammar, and the name really wasn't suiting us anymore," he said, adding that Superhuman is "a really beautiful name to describe the view that we have around humans continuing to be in control and at the center, [while] AI is there to make them better at what they are already doing -- and maybe give them powers they didn't think they had." As Behnke's comments suggest, the rebrand to Superhuman is geared towards a vision of technology that strikes a delicate balance: helping human users to become more competent and confident writers through the automation of certain tasks, while still leaving room for enough friction to ensure that writing doesn't become too easy. Also: I tested all of Edge's new AI browser features - and it felt like having a personal assistant In other words, the driving idea behind the rebrand is to build and deploy AI tools that know how and when to provide a helping hand -- and, equally importantly, when to keep quiet. This was also the premise behind a fleet of new writing-assistant agents that the company released in August for students and working professionals. With that broader vision in mind, Superhuman's mission moving forward, according to Behnke, will be to serve as an "air traffic control system" coordinating the behavior of a multitude of AI agents, both those offered by the company and from other third-party platforms. This system can deploy the agents a user needs when they're needed, for as long as they're needed, rather than leaving users to their own devices to blindly attempt at whatever problem they're trying to solve by haphazardly feeding prompts to a chatbot. Also: Need the best AI content detector in 2025? Try these four tools (you probably already use one) You can think of Superhuman Go, the company's new AI assistant, as the director of that air traffic control system, orchestrating agents and delegating them depending on the task at hand. A user drafting an email to a customer, for example, might receive suggestions from Go based on information the assistant pulled directly from a CRM platform. In another scenario, a team getting caught up in a long Slack thread might use Go to quickly ask each team member about their availability for a meeting and send out an invite to everyone's email.

Superhuman Go is available now for Chrome and Edge browsers, with availability on Mac, Windows, and mobile expected soon. Superhuman Go arrives alongside a mounting body of research showing that the vast majority of businesses using AI are not seeing measurable ROI from the technology, despite enthusiastic claims from developers promising quick boosts in organizational efficiency and output. Also: Sick of your slides? Let Gemini make them - here's how Referring to this dilemma as the "AI productivity gap," Superhuman is betting that its new AI assistant's ability to adaptively deploy itself based on individual users' context will help businesses make the most of AI. "The key," Behnke says, "is AI showing up when it's needed, and disappearing into the background when it's not." Behnke's belief that optimally useful AI will be that which knows when to speak up and when to shut up echoes a recent report from Forrester. It argues that we're now entering a phase of AI development in which the most useful systems are those that operate silently and efficiently in the background -- a sharp contrast to the sensationalism that's surrounded the technology since it exploded onto the cultural scene in 2022. Also: Your colleagues are sick of your AI workslop Behnke goes so far as to predict that in the not very distant future, the basic user interface paradigm of consumer-facing AI tools will have evolved to the point that the question-and-answer prompt interface of today will seem quaint and unwieldy, like the buttons on a Blackberry. "I think in five to 10 years, we'll say, 'Do you remember when we had to actually figure out how to prompt [AI] for an answer?' I think we'll find that to be very strange in the future," he says. Grammarly's "air traffic control" play is also based on the belief that one of the hindrances preventing businesses from achieving ROI with AI is a surplus of tools; that there are just too many options available to users at a given time, and this results in a kind of analysis paralysis. Also: Is your company spending big on new tech? Here are 5 ways to prove it's paying off It's not the only company betting that businesses will be willing to pay for a service that takes this overabundance of tools and is able to turn it into streamlined simplicity. Last month, for example, the software company ServiceNow unveiled a new platform designed to help businesses manage their roster of agents. Just yesterday, GitHub launched an Agent HQ. In a similar but separate approach, Adobe announced a new service earlier this month that allows enterprise customers to build their own custom AI agents.

Grammarly Chases the AI Hype, Rebrands as 'Superhuman'
When he's not battling bugs and robots in Helldivers 2, Michael is reporting on AI, satellites, cybersecurity, PCs, and tech policy. Don't miss out on our latest stories. Add PCMag as a preferred source on Google. The company behind Grammarly is rebranding itself as Superhuman to capitalize on the AI frenzy. Its Grammarly edit tool will still exist, but it appears the company wants to draw more attention to its entire line of software, rather than just the freemium Grammarly. "We're evolving from a single product to a suite that includes Grammarly's trusted writing partner, Coda's all-in-one workspace, Superhuman Mail's AI-native inbox, and a new product called Superhuman Go. These are all available today as a bundled subscription," CEO Shishir Mehrotra wrote in a blog post. Grammarly.com still exists, but a new Superhuman site is now live, offering access to the Superhuman Go suite for free or as a $144-per-year plan with premium features. "The new name reflects the company's evolution into an AI-native productivity platform for apps and agents," Superhuman added. "Superhuman Go is available for free during early access via Grammarly for Chrome and Grammarly for Edge.... Go will also come to Mac and Windows soon after launch." Grammarly, which laid off 230 employees last year, is facing intense competition as heavyweights like OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft release all kinds of AI-powered productivity tools for workers. In response, Grammarly/Superhuman is promising that its own software will give its 40 million+ daily active users "superpowers, everywhere you work." The newest product, Superhuman Go, is designed as a more powerful AI assistant that can operate in every application or browser tab. The company describes it as a "whole team of agents that can brainstorm, fetch information, send emails, schedule meetings, and more." Grammarly is focused on one AI agent. "It helps without you needing to ask. Everywhere you are, Go will look for opportunities to say something better, or do something faster," Superhuman added. "For example, Go will bring any information you need in-line, so you don't have to pause what you're doing to look something up. If you're in a conversation thread, and someone suggests scheduling a meeting, Go will surface your availability and help you book the meeting in the moment. It's a small time saver, but one that adds up to make a big difference," the company said. In addition, Superhuman Go can harness "multiple agents" when polishing the user's writing. Users can also download other specialized agents and plug-ins to connect to third-party apps through the Superhuman store. When asked about which models Superhuman Go uses, the company said: "We use a range of models and providers, regularly evaluating which models are best suited for which tasks." For users concerned about privacy and the AI agents collecting sensitive data, Superhuman noted: "The company does not sell or monetize user content, ensures users are in control of their data and own what they write, and does not allow its third-party service providers to train their models on user content. "For existing Grammarly, Coda, and Superhuman Mail customers, nothing changes about the products they rely on. They gain access to new capabilities and a platform that makes everything work better together," Superhuman added.

Grammarly has rebranded to Superhuman
Grammarly is no more, at least with regards to its name. The AI-powered writing assistance tool founded in 2009 has been absorbed into a new software platform called Superhuman. It follows Grammarly's acquisition of Superhuman Mail earlier this year, with the former taking the somewhat unusual step of adopting its newly obtained company's name, rather than the other way around. Superhuman unites Grammarly, Superhuman Mail and the AI work assistant Coda (also acquired by Grammarly in 2025) in one productivity suite, allowing users to access all three tools as part of a single plan. The company has also launched a new AI assistant called Superhuman Go that is included in every Superhuman plan tier and is baked into the Grammarly browser extension for Chrome and Edge. Superhuman Go's capabilities include assisting with professional-sounding email responses, fetching information and scheduling meetings. At launch it can connect to your Google Workspace apps and Microsoft Outlook, with the idea being that the AI is always there making suggestions in the background, rather than you needing to ask it for assistance. Superhuman plans to add additional functionality to Coda and Superhuman Mail, such as turning ideas from meetings into drafts and more effectively organizing your inbox according to your schedule. Its vision for the rebrand is that instead of thinking of Grammarly as a writing agent alone, you utilize all of its different agents and platforms to work more productively. Anyone previously using Grammarly can now use Superhuman Go, and the Superhuman suite is being bundled into a number of different plans. The $12 per month (billed annually) Pro plan offers unlimited paragraph rewrites and translations in 19 languages -- a feature Grammarly added earlier this year -- while the Business plan costs $33 per month (billed annually) and includes Superhuman's mail client.

Superhuman's new AI suite fact-checks your life
You've probably heard of Grammarly, the AI spelling and grammar checker. But with a rebrand, a consolidation, and a new AI agent, Grammarly now fact-checks your business communications using what it knows about current context. It's difficult to describe this iteration of Grammarly, now renamed Superhuman, and its suite. (Fortunately, the company put together a short GIF describing how it works, which is embedded below.) Essentially, the Superhuman suite and its Superhuman Go app run various agents against your own (or AI-generated) copy, correcting any mistakes you inadvertently made about a variety of topics. Consider this example: you're emailing a coworker, Erica, about a sales call to be held tomorrow at noon. If you misspelled "Erica," you'd expect that it would be underlined, indicating an error. In this case, if the meeting was moved-and if Superhuman was connected to your Google Calendar-it would underline the meeting time and suggest you rewrite it with the new time instead. If the subject of the call changed, this too would be highlighted, as long as the CRM service was looped in. The Superhuman suite is fact-checking your email, but it functions more like a spellchecker. The Superhuman suite includes Grammarly, the Superhuman Mail program, the Coda all-in-one workspace, and the Superhuman Go AI program, which connects all of them together. It certainly isn't cheap; Superhuman is charging $25 per user per month for a Starter subscription, with a more advanced Business sub that pulls in some additional features. However, the Go features will be free at no additional cost through Feb. 1, 2026, and the technology will be available to Grammarly and Superhuman suite users on Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Windows and Mac users will add the new Go capabilities "soon," Grammarly said. The Superhuman suite allows users to move between the apps themselves, such as the Superhuman Mail interface, the Grammarly AI writing tool, and the Coda workspace. But the secret sauce will be the agents themselves. Superhuman is launching an agent store where users can download specific agents. These include Google Workspace tools, Microsoft Outlook, Atlassian Jira, and Atlassian Confluence, available today. Some partner agents are designed for specific tasks, like Fireflies, Common Room, Latimer, Parallel, Radical Candor, and Quizlet, which are also available today. The premise is familiar: connect more agents to the applications, give them access to more of your data and, supposedly, your productivity will improve. Grammarly/Superhuman said that "nothing changes" in terms of the products and their privacy protections. "The company does not sell or monetize user content, ensures users are in control of their data and own what they write, and does not allow its third-party service providers to train their models on user content," the company said.

Grammarly is becoming Superhuman as it gains new powers
The AI writing aid Grammarly is changing its name to Superhuman (not to be confused with SimpleHuman) as it gains additional capabilities. The company says existing subscribers will get the extra features at no extra cost, but only until the beginning of February ... Grammarly is a browser plugin that acts rather like a spell-checker on steroids. It checks spelling, points out grammatical errors, and also makes suggested changes to improve the flow of your writing. The company last year acquired collaborative workspace app Coda, whose apps include the AI-powered Superhuman Mail. This now becomes part of the package along with a new AI assistant called Superhuman Go. The Verge reports that the latter is an AI agent that works within your browser. Superhuman shifts its focus to offering an AI agent-powered work platform that works in every tab of your browser and knows enough about what's going on to offer useful suggestions. In this demo video, the company says that with connections to over 100 apps, it can offer contextual help, like scheduling meetings based on your Google Calendar's availability, or getting the details in a pitch right based on the info in a database. Superhuman Go has a very similar user interface to Grammarly, with its sidebar format. The company says that the Grammarly brand will remain but will now be one of the tools offered within the parent branding of Superhuman. "It's a really complicated and frankly scary thing. But the reality is, the Grammarly brand isn't going anywhere," Noam Lovinsky, Chief Product Officer at Superhuman, said in an interview with The Verge. If you currently have a Grammarly Pro subscription, you'll get the extra features at no extra cost for now, but it sounds like that will soon change.

Grammarly just became Superhuman -- meet the company's new AI writing powers
Grammarly, the AI-powered writing assistant used by more than 40 million people, is proving to be bigger competition for rivals like ChatGPT and Gemini with a major rebranding. Officially changing its name to Superhuman, the company has revealed an entire package of new AI tools for writing and beyond. Today the company announced the rebrand, uniting Grammarly, Coda and Superhuman Mail under a single umbrella to form what it calls an "AI-native productivity platform." The move marks Grammarly's biggest transformation in its 16-year history. Instead of simply checking grammar and tone, Superhuman now promises to handle your email, documents, meetings and team collaboration with a new generation of AI agents that work across all your tools. "Superhuman represents a fundamental shift in how we think about AI at work," said Shishir Mehrotra, CEO of the newly renamed company. "The name reflects our belief that AI should amplify human capability, not replace it." Grammarly's leadership says the new identity reflects where the company has been headed for years: building an ecosystem that works everywhere you work. The rebrand also signals its ambition to compete directly with Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini, both of which are integrating AI more deeply into office tools. At the center of this vision is Superhuman Go, a new AI assistant that blends context from across your apps to proactively help you, without needing to switch tabs. Superhuman Go, the company's most ambitious product yet, connects to over 100 popular apps -- including Google Workspace, Outlook, Jira, and Confluence, to deliver real-time insights and assistance directly in your workflow. For example, when replying to an email, Go can automatically pull data from your CRM, summarize recent tickets and even draft your response in your own tone. During meetings, it can remind you what was discussed last time and what still needs follow-up. And if a long chat thread needs to become a meeting, Go can find when everyone's free and schedule it for you. Chief Product Officer Noam Lovinsky says that while most AI tools still expect users to change how they work, Go learns your habits instead. "It's the difference between having an AI tool you have to remember to use and an AI partner that's actively working with you," he explained. The Superhuman Suite, available now, brings together four distinct tools: Unlike most AI tools that operate in silos, the Superhuman Suite uses shared data and contextual understanding to offer truly personalized recommendations. Now, whether you're drafting a report, organizing a project or replying to a client, everything you need is in one spot. Superhuman says it has built Go around three types of agents: Additionally, Superhuman Agents SDK, now in closed beta, will let developers build their own custom agents capable of acting within users' apps, extending the system far beyond traditional AI chatbots. Despite the sweeping transformation, Superhuman promises to remain true to its long-standing privacy principles. The company reiterated that it does not sell or monetize user data and that users retain full control of their content and permissions. Existing Grammarly, Coda and Superhuman Mail users will keep their current plans and gain access to new capabilities at no extra cost at least until February 1, 2026, when the free access period for Superhuman Go ends. The rebrand to Superhuman signals a shift from reactive AI (tools you prompt) to proactive AI (tools that anticipate your needs). With Gemini, ChatGPT and Claude all vying for user attention, Superhuman could become the connective tissue for modern work, delivering a seamless layer that bridges emails, meetings and documents without endless switching or copy-pasting. Whether or not it can keep up in the competitive world of AI-powered productivity tools remains to be seen, but the company is promising Superhuman results.

Grammarly rebrands as Superhuman as it doubles down on AI
Grammarly is now Superhuman, a suite of AI tools for the workplace. Credit: SOPA Images / Contributor / LightRocket via Getty Images Grammarly, the popular automatic grammar checker used by students and professionals alike, is now Superhuman, as the company announces a new rebrand centering not just its tentpole product, but an entire line of agentic AI. In a Oct. 29 blog post, the company announced it was adding several new AI-powered offerings to bolster the work of its branded writing partner, including the all-in-one workspace Coda and an AI-native inbox known as Superhuman Mail, which Grammarly acquired earlier this year. The company is also launching Superhuman Go, a web of universal AI agents that can be used across apps. The tools are now available under a single Superhuman subscription plan. AI is definitely not new for the online writing tool, which built its brand on automatic smart features just like other industry standard spellchecking tools and grammar apps. During the recent AI boom, Grammarly placed its bets early on conversational generative AI, including the launch of its own chatbot writing assistant, GrammarlyGo, in 2023. In August, the company announced eight new specialized AI agents that work within its own "AI-native writing surface," to provide specific writing help, citation checking, and rubric grading. But the latest rebrand hints at even larger aims for the company, including investing in what they call more "proactive" AI that can anticipate actions before they're initiated by a user. The company explained in a second blog post that it aims to close a productivity gap between what workplace AI has promised users and what it actually delivers in practice. In the background, many experts believe the growing AI bubble, and its promise of AGI, is soon set to pop. "Today AI feels like something we have to learn to manage or tame," wrote the company. "We hope the AI will feel so natural that using it will feel ordinary; so built-in to the way you work that you forget it's even there."

Grammarly has rebranded as Superhuman, launching a new AI assistant that works across 100+ apps
Superhuman Go responds based on context and remembers individual details to help with tasks before you ask Grammarly is renaming itself to Superhuman, with the grade and job-saving digital editor becoming one of the platform's flagship services. Though Grammarly will continue helping add and remove em-dashes, semi-colons, and Oxford commas, Superhuman plans to help manage your entire workday. The relaunch unifies Grammarly, the AI-powered collaboration platform, Coda, and email client Superhuman Mail, both acquired by the rebranded Grammarly in recent years. As part of the revamp, Superhuman is also debuting a new AI assistant embedded into your every work activity called Superhuman Go. That means if you're one of Grammarly's 40 million daily users, accustomed to getting a helpful "You could clarify this sentence" tooltip before sending a Slack message or Google Doc comment, you'll notice there's a lot more help available. Grammarly, as a writing assistant, will keep its own branding, as well as Coda and Superhuman Mail, but Superhuman Go will be the hub where AI agents will be orchestrated across your apps to do things, possibly before you ask. The idea is to finally close what the company calls the "productivity gap" between what AI promises and what it actually does on your behalf. The actual experience will vary, but, where Grammarly once highlighted passive voice writing in an email draft and offered an alternative phrasing, Superhuman Go might now summarize your entire email thread and draft a reply to match your cultivated tone of professional warmth, then offer to schedule a follow-up meeting with two suggested time slots, pulling in last quarter's performance metrics for them. This will already be done before you've read the second sentence of the email. The point of Superhuman Go is to reduce switching between apps, repetitive tasks, and research time. Go connects to over 100 major platforms, including Slack, Outlook, Gmail, and Google Docs. It applies the data from them all to tailor its suggestions and automate your work. For Grammarly users, that means help rewriting a clunky paragraph is informed by the last client meeting you wrote notes about, and it will remind you what tasks you have to complete based on the meeting, while drafting a status update. Grammarly writing agents are getting a boost just by being within Superhuman Go. The context provided by Go's link to your information can elevate Grammarly's subject matter expertise, measurement of originality, predictions of how audiences will react to a piece of writing, and the option to calibrate tone to meet your writing goals. It's still Grammarly under the hood, just with a much bigger map of your work life. Proactive, integrated AI is the North Star for productivity tools these days. A glance at Microsoft Copilot, Google's Duet AI, and several other services is all angled around predicting and fulfilling needs. Superhuman boasts about how it combines simplicity and depth as a way of standing out. Unlike AI tools that feel like separate tabs or prompts, Go operates more like a persistent layer across your workspace Whether Grammarly loyalists will cheer the changes is as uncertain. Grammarly is now powered by AI models, but it's been narrowly focused in a way some people prefer. The risk in this rebrand is overwhelming those users with too much new complexity, or making the system feel like it's hovering over you and helping when it's unwanted. If you like the idea of an AI assistant anticipating your needs without prompting, you may be thrilled that Superhuman might note you are finishing a report and immediately offer you a summary based on your updates and whoever is tagged within. Or instead of searching your inbox for a flight confirmation number, you see a highlighted message with it when check-in time arrives. Trusting AI that far might be hard for people to do. If the company wants to get people on board with its ambitions, it will have to live up to its new name.

Grammarly goes from fixing typos to giving you a 'Superhuman' AI assistant
What's happened? Grammarly, the tool you probably use to catch that missing comma, has officially rebranded to Superhuman. The company announced the move today alongside a suite of new AI-powered products designed to go far beyond grammar correction. Grammarly is now part of the Superhuman Suite, which combines Grammarly's core writing engine with Coda (acquired in December 2024) and Superhuman Mail (acquired in June 2025). Meet Superhuman Go: A cross-app AI assistant that works in over 100 apps, can summarize meetings, draft emails, plan schedules, or pull context from other tools automatically. Your old Grammarly assistant remains, but it's now one part of a unified productivity system. This is important because: The rebrand isn't just cosmetic, it signals Grammarly's leap from writing aid to AI ecosystem. Superhuman Go links writing, scheduling, and communication into one AI system, reducing tab chaos and app fatigue. Superhuman now competes with the likes of Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini, but positions itself as "AI that works the way you do" rather than forcing you to adapt to the AI. With $1 billion in fresh funding and 40 million daily users, the company is now betting on productivity as the next frontier of AI adoption. Recommended Videos Why should I care? If you have used Grammarly, you are about to see it evolve into something more like an AI co-worker. You'll still get writing help, but now your AI can also schedule meetings, reply to emails, and summarize documents. If you're managing a team or constantly bouncing between tools, Superhuman's integrations can help you stop switching tabs and start actually working. Grammarly users can try Superhuman Go now. The Pro plan costs $12/month for multilingual grammar and tone tools, while the Business plan at $33/month adds access to Superhuman Mail.

Grammarly Isn't Going Anywhere
A new AI chatbot, Superhuman Go, is being added to the Grammarly app. Earlier today, you might have seen reports that Grammarly is changing its name to Superhuman. That's not really the whole story. While the company did announce a broader rebrand coinciding with the release of a new AI assistant (more on that later), it also assured users that "the Grammarly brand isn't going anywhere." Essentially, what that means is that while Grammarly the company has a new name, Grammarly the product is still going by the same tried-and-true moniker as ever. The confusion follows Grammarly's acquisition of AI-powered email app Superhuman in June, which the company said "accelerates Grammarly's evolution into an AI productivity platform for apps and agents." Usually, acquired companies take the name of the companies that bought them, but that's not a hard-and-fast rule. "Superhuman" certainly implies a broader scope than a name that's all about grammar, so it makes sense that Grammarly might want to yoink its name if it plans to expand into other markets. To that end, the company also today announced Superhuman Go, a more general AI addition to the Grammarly extension that works like Grammarly does now, but with more capability. The free version will still let you do everything Grammarly does, but it also ropes in access to tools like Coda, a collaborative workspace, and a chatbot that supposedly integrates with and can help take action for you across 100 apps. Or, you could pay up to also get the Superhuman AI inbox and the features you would previously expect from Grammarly Pro and Enterprise. But while Grammarly is available within Go, if you're skeptical, you don't need to change your workflow yet. Pricing for the base paid Superhuman Suite subscription matches the previous Grammarly Pro subscription pricing, so you won't be paying more even with access to new tools (although you'll need to hop up to a higher tier to get that AI inbox). And as for using Go itself, it's entirely optional. To try Superhuman Go out, open the Grammarly extension, go to Settings and toggle on the switch next to Go. Otherwise, you can leave it off to continue using Grammarly as you always have, name and all.

Grammarly Rebrands as Superhuman With New Line of AI Tools | AIM
The company says its long-term goal is to help users offload routine tasks and focus on creative and strategic work. Grammarly has rebranded its parent company as Superhuman, signalling its expansion from an AI writing assistant to a comprehensive suite of productivity tools. The company will now operate under the new name while retaining "Grammarly" as a product brand within its lineup. Grammarly adopted the Superhuman name following its acquisition of the AI email client on June 30, 2025, a deal that was made public in early July. The acquisition was part of Grammarly's strategy to build an AI-powered productivity suite by integrating Superhuman's email technology into its platform. "We're changing our company name to Superhuman," said Shishir Mehrotra, CEO of the newly named firm, in a blog post. "We're evolving from a single product to a suite that includes Grammarly's trusted writing partner, Coda's all-in-one workspace, Superhuman Mail's AI-native inbox, and a new product called Superhuman Go." The move reflects Grammarly's transition from a single writing-focused tool to an integrated ecosystem of proactive AI agents. The Superhuman suite will be available through a bundled subscription that brings together writing, collaboration, and communication tools. At the centre of this expansion is Superhuman Go, a new product that embeds multiple AI agents into any app or browser tab. "Like Grammarly, Superhuman Go works in every application and tab. But instead of a single agent that helps you write, Go has a whole team of agents that can brainstorm, fetch information, send emails, schedule meetings, and more." According to the company, Go integrates with existing workflows to perform tasks without requiring explicit prompts. For example, it can pull data from a CRM while drafting an email, surface availability during a conversation about scheduling, or automatically suggest relevant context in real time. The company also announced the Superhuman Agents SDK, which allows developers to integrate their own AI agents into Go. Early partners include Common Room, Radical Candor, Latimer, Fireflies, Parallel, Speechify, and Quizlet, with upcoming integrations from Saifr, Axios HQ, and Napkin AI. Alongside Go, Superhuman is expanding the AI capabilities of its acquired platforms, Coda and Superhuman Mail. Both products are being redesigned to act proactively rather than reactively. "Coda docs already sync data from other apps to create a single source of truth," Mehrotra explained. "Soon they will act on that data for you -- processing meeting notes into action items or drafting briefs based on discussions." Superhuman Mail, which already automates inbox organisation and email composition, will soon generate replies using real-time context from a user's calendar, CRM, and other connected tools. Mehrotra described the broader vision as making AI "feel ordinary" by embedding it directly into users' workflows. "You don't have to pause, prompt, paste, or even think about it," he said. "The AI naturally fits into where you work, and only then does it really start to change how you work." The company says its long-term goal is to help users offload routine tasks and focus on creative and strategic work.

Grammarly transforms into AI-enabled productivity suite with Superhuman rebrand - SiliconANGLE
Grammarly transforms into AI-enabled productivity suite with Superhuman rebrand Grammarly Inc., the startup best known for artificial intelligence-powered proofreading and writing software, today announced its rebrand to Superhuman: a full-featured AI-native productivity platform. Under the new name, Superhuman is still offering Grammarly, alongside document collaboration orchestrator Coda and premium email client Superhuman Mail, connected by powerful AI assistance. The company dubs this the Superhuman Suite, reflecting how much it aims to affect user productivity. The rebrand arrives after Grammarly acquired Coda Project Inc., an AI document productivity platform in December and venture-backed AI-powered email client startup Superhuman Labs Inc. in July. "For over 16 years, Grammarly has used AI behind the scenes to help people write better across every app they use," Luke Behnke, Grammarly head of enterprise product, told SiliconANGLE. "But what started as writing assistance has grown into something much bigger: AI that proactively supports people wherever they work." The company has long been transforming itself into an AI-native platform for productivity. The rebrand and new offerings represent a significant milestone along this journey. To bring all of this together, Superhuman is launching Superhuman Go, an AI assistant and agent that works across every tab and tool where work happens. It can offer proactive help and connect more than 100 apps to deliver information, offer suggestions and provide writing assistance. Acting as the intelligent glue between apps and workflows, Go is designed to make use of AI agents to make collaboration and knowledge work easier. It can assist with emails by pulling account details from content platforms, remind users of support tickets and proofread writing so it sounds professional. For meetings, Go can remind users of what was discussed in the previous meeting notes and prep topics. "The biggest problem we're addressing is the gap that exists between intention and execution," Behnke said. "Most people spend far too much time managing their tools and jumping between apps instead of doing their work. Superhuman removes that friction." Go is launching with AI agents available from the Superhuman Agent Store, a marketplace where users can get assistance from Grammarly, connector and partner AI capabilities. AI agents are autonomous intelligent systems that are the evolution of digital assistants, capable of taking action on the behalf of users by using software tools and pulling information from different sources. In August, Grammarly released specialized agents for writing, which are now available in Go. These agents can provide expert writing assistance, including inspiration, subject matter expertise and predicting reader reactions. Specialized agents from partners can also provide additional tools and skills for Go, including from text-to-speech from Speechify Inc., study tools from Quizlet Inc. and smart meeting assistance from Fireflies.ai Corp. Superhuman said it intends to expand the agents available in Go with more AI-powered productivity tools and partners over time. Developers will be able to build on the platform, including adding connected agents for users with the new Superhuman Agents Software Development Kit now in closed beta mode. "We're not trying to be the only AI people use; we're delivering the infrastructure that helps all AI work better together," Behnke explained. This could include companies building their own internal AI agents trained on enterprise data that can proactively deliver insights, automate workflows or work alongside employees by understanding their existing tools. Behnke said the SDK is designed to be an open, extensible platform that will put the best AI-enabled resources into customer's hands. For current Grammarly, Coda and Superhuman Mail customers nothing is changing about the products they use - they are just getting access to new capabilities. The Superhuman suite is available today on paid plans. Superhuman Go and connected AI agents are also available to all Grammarly and new Superhuman users on Grammarly's browser extension for Chrome and Edge.

Grammarly rebrands as Superhuman after merging with Coda and Superhuman Mail
The new Superhuman platform unifies writing, email, and collaboration under a single AI-native ecosystem. Grammarly has rebranded as Superhuman following its acquisitions of the AI email client Superhuman and the all-in-one workspace Coda, uniting these tools with Grammarly's core product and a new AI assistant into a single AI-native productivity platform. The rebranding marks Grammarly's evolution from a standalone writing assistant to a comprehensive platform that integrates multiple productivity tools. Under the Superhuman brand, the company now encompasses Grammarly for writing enhancement, Coda as an all-in-one workspace for document creation and collaboration, Superhuman Mail as an intelligent inbox for email management, and the newly introduced Superhuman Go AI assistant. Superhuman Go functions as a proactive AI assistant that operates across users' existing applications. It provides context-aware, real-time suggestions and automations designed to accelerate workflows. By analyzing users' activities, it reduces busywork tasks such as repetitive data entry and minimizes contaext switching between apps, allowing individuals to maintain focus on core responsibilities. Video: Grammarly The platform's design prioritizes AI that amplifies human capabilities through deep understanding of individual workflows and specific needs. This approach avoids requiring users to adjust their habits to accommodate AI limitations, instead adapting the technology to fit seamlessly into established routines. Superhuman addresses the AI productivity gap created by isolated tools that demand manual transfer of context from one application to another. The integrated suite extends AI assistance to environments where people work, supporting enhancements in creativity, strategic planning, and overall task impact through targeted, efficient interventions. Users access the full Superhuman suite via a subscription model, enabling subscription-based utilization of the combined Grammarly, Coda, Superhuman Mail, and Superhuman Go features.

Grammarly just turned "Superhuman" and it's not what I expected
"New powers for you" rings the official Grammarly blog, revealing that it's about to become something known as Superhuman. After purchasing an AI email client known as Superhuman back in July 2025, Grammarly is now changing the name of its whole operation to match, bringing much more AI to your writing than ever before. While I find its new name rather amusing, Grammarly's pole-vault headfirst into the depths of AI could actually be the perfect middle-ground solution many people have been waiting for. Instead of using a full AI browser or copying and pasting your work into ChatGPT for spelling, grammar, and AI direction, the new Superhuman app does it all. Grammarly becomes Superhuman It'll fix all of your writing woes First up, Grammarly isn't dead. Grammarly is merging into a new, AI-powered Superhuman suite of tools designed to help boost your overall productivity. The focus is no longer solely on editing and grammar suggestions; the Superhuman suite integrates with Coda, can fire off messages and reminders, will add Jira tickets, manage your email account, and much more. Superhuman Go, as the new all-in-one app will be known, is available as a bundle, integrated into your browser. Grammarly Pro subscribers can already start using it, by the way. Just head to the Grammarly extensions in your browser, toggle the Use Superhuman Go option, and it'll launch you into a brief introduction to the new app. Existing Premium subscribers can use Superhuman Go for no extra cost until February 1st, 2026. However, there is no detail on the cost after that point, or if Premium subscribers can keep using Grammarly Pro as a solo product; my bet is on probably not. It could become another reason to leave Grammarly behind. This is the bridge between AI-browser and copy-pasting into a chatbot Despite the name, I think this could be a winner AI browsers are the biggest buzz in tech. ChatGPT launched its Atlas browser to very mixed reviews, Perplexity's Comet browser goes from strength to strength, and Opera's Neon browser wants to do absolutely everything for you. But not everyone wants an agentic AI browser. More than that, not everyone needs one. However, there are more than a few folks now using AI tools in browser, especially for things like idea creation, writing emails, checking grammar, and more. However, most of that involves copying and pasting into a specific AI tool, then copying the results back, and so on. That's what it looks like Superhuman Go solves. Instead of faffing around and copying your work or emails into another program, Superhuman Go just does it all from a single sidebar. It's simple to use, even in its beta test Some bits of the app are maybe not working yet So, how different is the Superhuman Go Beta from the regular Grammarly Pro subscription? First, it's a beta, so certain aspects of the app aren't working yet. However, it seems like a good proportion of Superhuman is up and running. Initially, it looked like I could only call the Superhuman app through the old Grammarly overlay icon, but after a refresh or two, the new icon appeared. It also means that, unlike the old Grammarly app, you can call the Superhuman Go app from any webpage, not just those with text fields. Once the sidebar opens, you're presented with a handful of new options. Superhuman is calling these options "agents" in a nod to their AI capabilities. It's a departure from the old Grammarly Premium option, which, depending on your usage, may have just been the floating suggestions box (the full sidebar was moved to the Grammarly web app). The default sidebar agent options are: Go: This is like an AI companion in your sidebar that you can ask basically anything. It has some quirks and cannot currently access certain sites due to the aforementioned reason. But otherwise, functionally, it's similar. I was prompting Go to find issues with an article on TF cards I'm updating, and it gave me heaps of information. But it also responded rapidly when I asked for a pulled-pork taco recipe. However, it couldn't grab live data, like the weather in Penzance, England. Go also needed me to copy text into the window to make a comparison with my article, but I also expect this to change in time. Proofreader: I found the Proofreader tab functionally similar to Grammarly Pro, which it basically is. At least, it appears that's where Grammarly Pro will live once Superhuman Go goes fully live. AI Detector: I took the AI detector for a spin on my own article that I'm updating (no detection), and with some other bits of work copied from around the web. The tool currently can't access pages without a text input box, so it couldn't see if articles on other websites had been plagiarized. However, it could be useful if you spend time editing the work of other people. Word to the wise, though, all AI detector apps are trash and shouldn't be trusted. Humanizer: I couldn't actually get this to work during my testing. However, the Humanizer tool is designed to make AI text sound more human. Reader Reactions: I like this as a concept. It's a built-in tool that checks the key points of your writing for what the reader will remember. So, in my test article, it suggests the reader will mostly remember that TF cards and SD cards are essentially the same, with some extra facts. However, it also suggests follow-up questions they may ask, such as buying advice and performance, among others. However, lurking at the bottom is the option to Add agents, which, as you can guess, opens a list of additional AI tools you can add to your sidebar. A quick scroll through the Superhuman agent list shows integrations for LaTeX, Unsplash, Asana, Spotify, Jira, Google Drive, Gmail, and plenty more. Superhuman Go will do what an AI browser does without the hassle The only question is how much it'll cost As said, some aspects of Superhuman Go didn't appear to be working, or I didn't understand how to use them. The plagiarism detector in Superhuman Go's Go mode (that naming sequence needs work) indicated eight parts of my text matching five sources -- but didn't highlight them, give me a report, or allow me to make changes. Similarly, some integrations I tried, such as Gmail, succeeded in sending a message, but wouldn't automatically include information from the open text to send. So, nearly useful, but without that final bit, I'll just do it myself. Additionally, the option to use the original grammar checking overlay rather than a whole sidebar will also be important; not everyone will want all these extra features and the screen space they take up. In that, Superhuman Go has the potential to bridge the gap for folks between downloading a new AI browser and bringing useful AI features into an existing browser. For now, Superhuman needs to really hammer home that this is convenience baked into a neat package that you're probably already using; Grammarly has 40 million subscribers, which is a very healthy starting point. The difficulty is convincing people who aren't using Grammarly that it's more convenient than copy-pasting their emails, messages, or otherwise into ChatGPT for the same outcome, and that all comes down to cost. And without that vital information, it's hard to say how successful Superhuman Go will be.

Grammarly Is Now Superhuman. It's a Big Bet on AI as the Future of Work
Grammarly has long been one of the most useful pieces of software that I use every day. As someone who writes a lot of words, it solves a real problem whether those words are part of an email, an article draft, or really anything else I might be working on. Then, a few months ago, Grammarly bought Superhuman, the email app that started as a tool for CEOs and founders to quickly triage, manage, and search their email. I paid close attention at the time because I'm a fan of Superhuman, but also because I've interviewed the founder, Rahul Vohra, a number of times, and have always been intrigued about the way he thinks about building both software and businesses. Then, on Wednesday, Grammarly announced that it has changed its name to Superhuman. I was, at first, a bit conflicted. I've said a number of times that companies shouldn't rebrand unless there's a really good reason. There almost never is, but in this case, I actually think it makes perfect sense. Yes, Grammarly was a pretty widely known brand, especially for what it does. But where Grammarly's strength has been writing assistance, the company says that it believes the future of work is about a lot more than that. This isn't just a name-change. It's a big bet on AI as a fully-integrated part of how you work. Superhuman, you may remember, was founded in 2014 and built a reputation for being the incredibly fast, if somewhat expensive, email app. The goal was to help you spend less time in your email. Features like Split Inboxes, powerful search, and Command-K shortcuts make it quick and straightforward to triage and organize your mail. Superhuman introduced Auto Labels and Auto Archive to classify, triage, and reduce inbox clutter. Recently, it added AI features like "emails that write themselves." It can scan your emails and create quick drafts that use your own style and voice. It also added the ability to search using natural language so you could quickly ask "which hotel did my boss say they are staying at?" and Superhuman would find the right email and give you the answer. According to Superhuman's own metrics, the result was that users save hours every week and process email much faster.  For Grammarly, it wasn't hard to see why this acquisition makes sense. Email is where business communication still happens. Most work inboxes are full of decisions, follow-ups, and reminders about projects, proposals, and tasks. By folding Superhuman's deeper workflow and AI-powered email capabilities into its platform, Grammarly expands from "the app that helps you write better,' to "a platform to help you work better." In a blog post announcing the branding change, the company explains that: "The Grammarly product will still exist, but we're changing our company name to Superhuman." Grammarly no longer wants to be known just for writing corrections. It wants to be known for helping you with all of your work. That's why the name "Superhuman," makes sense. The promise of AI, at least for work, is that it will make you more productive and efficient so that you can get a lot more done in less time. It's the idea that AI will augment and enhance your ability to work. The blog describes the company's new suite of products: the writing partner (Grammarly), AI-native inbox (Superhuman Mail), and a new product called Superhuman Go (a team of agents working invisibly). The goal is that you stop thinking "I'm using AI" -- and instead just do your work as it flows. In other words, the name change helps shift user expectation: you're not just installing a writing tool -- you're adopting an AI-focused productivity platform. That shift is important when the competition includes tech giants and startups all racing to own the "agent" layer of work. With Superhuman, you'll work in your apps, your inbox, your docs -- and the company's AI tools will act behind the scenes. The blog outlines "Superhuman Go," agents that brainstorm, fetch information, send emails, and schedule meetings. "It works in all the apps you already use, and it helps without you needing to ask." By combining Grammarly's infrastructure with Superhuman's active workflow engine, the company is placing a big bet. That bet is that the future of work will feel ordinary only when the AI becomes invisible and pervasive. You won't remember you're "using AI" -- you'll just get more done. In other words, Grammarly taught us to write better. Now Superhuman is building an AI-powered suite of tools for the future, all designed to help us work better. Like this column?

Grammarly Rebrands to Superhuman, Introduces New Agentic AI Assistant
It can proactive offer inline assistance across various tasks Grammarly rebranded its company name to Superhuman on Wednesday. While the product Grammarly, the writing assistant, continues to exist, the parent company, which also includes the artificial intelligence (AI) productivity platform Coda and Superhuman Mail, will now be under the Superhuman brand. Additionally, the company introduced its latest product, Superhuman Go, an agentic AI assistant available across platforms and devices, which can proactively assist users by connecting to various data hubs and being context-aware. It is a prompt-less tool, similar to Grammarly. Grammarly Changes Name to Superhuman Among the long list of unorthodox business decisions, perhaps the most unique is for an acquirer to take up the identity of the acquired brand. When Grammarly acquired Superhuman Mail earlier this year, few would have thought that the brand integration would be established in this way. However, the San Francisco-based company has never been shy of pivoting to the acquired brand's ideas. In December 2024, Grammarly acquired Coda, moving from a single-product company to a multi-product brand. After the acquisition, the company elevated the Co-Founder and CEO of Coda, Shishir Mehrotra, as the CEO of (then) Grammarly, replacing Rahul Roy-Chowdhury. Now, under Mehrotra, the company has completed its rebranding exercise and will be known as Superhuman, whose portfolio includes four AI-powered work products -- Grammarly, Coda, Superhuman Mail, and now Superhuman Go. Superhuman Go is the latest offering by the company. Billed as a tool that "works in every application and tab", it is an agentic AI assistant that offers writing assistance, auto-drafts, summarisation, and more. The agentic capability comes in the form of its ability to tap into different knowledge hubs to complete complex actions proactively. It also works proactively, similar to Grammarly. For instance, if a user on Slack asks another user for a meeting the next day, Go will proactively check their emails and calendar to find an available slot, then show the information inline to help them plan the right time for the meeting. Alternatively, it can help draft emails to users by finding the right words and reframing sentences, or pull product pricing from the CRM and flag recent support issues. At launch, it can connect to and fetch information from Google Workspace and Microsoft Outlook. The company is also allowing developers to bring their own agents to the AI assistant via the Superhuman Agents SDK. It highlighted that currently, companies such as Common Room, Fireflies, Parallel, and Speechify have built new agents for Go, which are currently available.

CEO Shishir Mehrotra on Grammarly's New Chapter as Superhuman: Interview
Shishir Mehrotra's rebrand of Grammarly as Superhuman signals the company's next chapter: a broader vision for human-centered tech. Shishir Mehrotra, who became CEO of Grammarly at the beginning of 2025, isn't just updating the company's A.I. writing tools -- he's rebranding the entire company. From now on, Grammarly will be known as Superhuman, a name that Mehrotra says better reflects its expanding suite of products and mission to empower users.

You can opt out anytime. See all of our newsletters "It was very important for the company to have a broader name because we cover so much more ground than we used to," Mehrotra told Observer. "We wanted to be able to expand our offerings over time and still have it fit." If you're attached to the name Grammarly, don't fret. The company's popular writing assistant will retain its title as one of several products under the new Superhuman umbrella. Other offerings include Coda, the collaboration platform founded by Mehrotra and acquired by Grammarly last year, and Superhuman Mail, an A.I.-powered email platform it purchased in June. The Superhuman suite will also add a new product: Superhuman Go, an A.I. assistant capable of connecting to more than 100 apps to work across users' documents, emails, meeting transcripts and chat threads. The tool will launch with dozens of A.I. agents designed to provide writing support and pull in real-time information from other tools. Some agents are being developed in partnership with experts, including author Kim Scott, who helped launch a "Radical Candor" agent that will help users communicate both directly and kindly. Mehrotra likened Grammarly's transformation to other major tech rebrands, such as Google's restructuring under Alphabet and Facebook's pivot to Meta. "There's been enough cases of that being done in a way that preserved the core brand," he said. A Superhuman approach to A.I. Founded in 2009, Grammarly has long used A.I. to power its grammar checking and writing assistance tools. More recently, the company has accelerated its A.I. development, adding features like A.I.-enabled citation finders, multilingual writing tools and plagiarism detection. Unlike some A.I.-driven productivity platforms, Mehrotra said Superhuman's tools are designed to enhance human work, not replace it. "We assist you in many different ways, but at the end of the day, you actually publish the article, you post the blog, you submit the essay," he said. "We're continuing that with all of our products." Superhuman Go is already gaining traction in education. Arizona State University announced today (Oct. 30) that it will deploy the A.I. assistant to help address tool fragmentation and improve student support. Though the university had already implemented various A.I. tools, Mehrotra said it chose Superhuman to unify those systems and make them easier for students and faculty to use. Such partnerships, he added, highlight Superhuman's goal of integrating A.I. seamlessly into daily life. "Most A.I. tools are focused on becoming destinations -- you go to them, that's how you experience your A.I.-based productivity," said Mehrotra. "We bring A.I. to you, and we think that's pretty different."

Grammarly Rebrands as Superhuman, Launches New AI Writing Assistant
The company has also launched Superhuman Go AI assistant which will provide email feedback and suggestions. Grammarly is rebranding itself as Superhuman based on the name of the email app it acquired in July. Along with the new name, it is also launching an AI assistant called Superhuman Go, which will be baked into Grammarly's web extension to provide feedback and writing suggestions while drafting emails. Superhuman (Previously Grammarly) CEO Shishir Mehrotra announced the name change in an X post, which caused some confusion among long-term Grammarly users. So to make things clear, Grammarly, the extension, will continue to be called as it is; only the parent company is being renamed. Moreover, the Superhuman Go will offer services like writing suggestions, feedback, and availability for an event or meeting. However, you will need to connect it with apps like Jira, Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Calendar to grab relevant details. Users can turn on Superhuman Go right from the Grammarly extension to try it out. However, if you don't want the AI features, you can switch to some of the other Grammarly alternatives out there. Superhuman Go is available for free to use, but the company is selling subscriptions too, starting with the Pro plan, which costs $12 annually and will include Grammarly's grammar and tone support in multiple languages. There's also a business plan, which goes for $33 annually and also includes Superhuman Mail.
