Pros & Cons
Grammarly

- Strong privacy stance: does not sell user content or use it for ad targeting or third-party model training
- Enterprise plan includes data loss prevention and granular role permissions for large organizations
Cons
- Pro plan AI prompts are capped at 2,000, which may not be enough for heavy generative AI users
- Monthly Pro pricing ($30/month) is significantly more expensive than annual billing ($12/month)
- Free tier has very limited generative AI capabilities (only 100 prompts)
- Enterprise pricing is not transparent and requires contacting sales
