Use tool ↗About Gramara
Gramara checks a passage for grammar mistakes and awkward phrasing, highlights what it would change, and rewrites each sentence into more natural English. Beyond correction it offers tone presets — formal, informal, concise — and can display the corrected sentence translated back into your first language, which is aimed squarely at people writing English as a second language rather than at native speakers hunting typos. It is a browser editor at app.gramara.com, run by Vectica Systems Ltd. in Canada. The marketing site describes the service as free to use; we found no pricing page, no browser extension and no published API.

Pros & cons of Gramara
Narrower than Grammarly and better for one specific job: turning non-native English into sentences a native speaker would write, then showing you the result in your own language so you can check the meaning survived. It is free, which is the main reason to try it, and also the reason to keep a backup — a free single-page tool with no visible business model can vanish.
Pros
- Rewrites awkward sentences rather than only flagging errors
- Shows the corrected sentence translated into your native language
- Three tone presets: formal, informal, concise
- Free with no visible paywall or word cap
Cons
- Web editor only — no browser extension, desktop app or API
- No pricing page, terms detail or roadmap published
- Nothing on the site states when the product launched or how it is funded
Best for
- Non-native speakers polishing English emails, essays or posts
- Checking that a rewrite kept your intended meaning via native-language translation
- Switching a draft between formal, informal and concise registers
Not for
- Teams needing a shared workspace, style guide or admin controls
- Writing inside Word, Google Docs or a browser field — there is no extension
Watch out: There is no stated business model behind a free tool, so treat it as convenient rather than dependable for ongoing work.
