4.4 out of 5
Scored by a Toolio reviewer after real useOur verdict
Outwrite works inside Gmail, LinkedIn, Medium, WordPress, and most places you type online, catching spelling and grammar issues, suggesting synonyms, and reporting readability and grade-level stats for free. The paraphrasing tool, style and structure suggestions, and plagiarism checker all sit behind the Pro upgrade, so the free version stays a solid proofreader rather than a full rewriting assistant. It supports French, Spanish, and English, and with 113 ratings and over a million users, it has more of a track record than most extensions in this space.
