There are significant differences between the free and premium versions of LanguageTool. As an intelligent writing assistant, the free version of LanguageTool can detect and correct spelling and grammar errors, but it can also:
Support more than twenty languages
Correct misspelled proper nouns (like names)
Fix punctuation mistakes like missing apostrophes, commas, and more
Improve formatting by helping you remain consistent when writing times and numbers
Offer a free online editor
Show more suggestions in Picky Mode
Work in numerous apps and programs, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Windows, macOS, iOS, and so much more
Include technology based on AI and Open Source
However, the basic plan comes with limitations in suggestion depth, length of text, and access to newer features. In contrast, the premium version offers a much more robust experience. The following features are unlocked when using the paid version:
Text length: Premium accounts allow grammar and style checking for texts up to 100,000 characters, significantly more than the 10,000-character limit in the free version. This is ideal for longer documents such as reports, dissertations, and manuscripts.
Feature updates: Premium users benefit from early access to new tools and features, such as one-click corrections and integrations with platforms like Google Docs and Microsoft Word.
Personal Style Guide: The Personal Style Guide enables users to define their own writing rules. This helps maintain individual voice and consistency, especially valuable for content creators, editors, and corporate teams.
Unlimited rephrasings: The Personal Style Guide enables users to define their own writing rules. This helps maintain individual voice and consistency, especially valuable for content creators, editors, and corporate teams.
Team accounts: Depending on the plan, Premium users can access team features including a shared Style Guide and Dictionary. These tools ensure brand or editorial consistency across team members’ writing.
Furthermore, the premium version of LT offers help with additional suggestions such as advanced spelling errors, grammar and punctuation, formatting and typography, style and foreign terms as well as semantics.
