I am continually impressed with the positive input this program offers me every time I sit down to write. My skills have improved immensely since I bought it and heartily recommend it to anyone who wants to have more confidence in their own writing.
I’ve tried every free and paid writing/editing/grammar extension out there and this by far is the best one my team and I have found. It’s fast, accurate and really helps improve your writing beyond simple grammar suggestions.

However, Word 2007 and 2010 are no longer actively supported by Microsoft. Because of this, you may experience issues when trying to use ProWritingAid in Word 2007 that are outside of our control.
