| Grazie — Free Browser Extension | No Subscription | Default Free plan with browser/account requirements. Paid AI plans and their allowances are separate; exact proofreading metering is not established. | Reviewed in Chrome 1.15.1/Gmail with English active-voice style enabled. Prior load failures and unknown root cause retained. No claim of unlimited checks, universal integrations, automatic rewrite parity or private/offline processing. | |
| Hemingway Editor — Free Web | No Subscription | Free browser editor for the reviewed highlighting/manual-edit workflow. Plus AI rewriting and paid Classic desktop are separate editions; no permanent availability guarantee. | Passive highlights support manual review; no automatic rewrite, complete grammar, accuracy, offline or privacy parity. Existing dated before/after observations apply only to free web. | |
| Real Write — Passive Voice Checker | No Subscription | Free anonymous access to the dedicated browser passive detector. Rendered tool FAQ specifies no daily cap and rendered pricing distinguishes local analysis from paid/credit-limited AI generation. The observed editor allows up to 3,000 words per input; feature availability and usage limits may change. No paid-suite entitlement or permanent free-access guarantee. | Two relevant construction highlights cleared after manual active revision in one sample. Heuristic misses/false positives and inconsistent 200% Mostly Active summary remain. Ignore the percentage as sentence-share accuracy; no automatic rewrite or privacy claim. Vendor can change or discontinue features and limits. Browser-local description is not an audited privacy guarantee. Mobile and web billing text differ and are outside this free-tool review. |
