Grammarly: Free spelling and grammar checks; paid adds rewrites and tone suggestions

What it is

Claude

A conversational AI assistant. For a coach the practical uses are unglamorous and real: turning scrappy session notes into a summary a client can read, drafting the fourth version of a welcome email, or rewriting a programme rationale in plain language.

Grammarly

A browser extension, desktop app and keyboard that checks and rewrites your writing wherever you type. The company behind it is now called Superhuman; the product keeps the Grammarly name.

Best for

Claude

Reducing admin writing time. Give it your own voice to imitate and a real example, and the drafts stop sounding generic.

Grammarly

Coaches who write a lot of client messages, especially in a second language. It catches the typo in a welcome email before a new client does.

Watch out for

Claude

Do not paste client health information into any AI tool without thinking about consent and storage. And it will state wrong things confidently — never let it be the source for a training or nutrition claim you then give a client.

Grammarly

Accept its rewrites and your messages start to sound like everyone else's. Use it as a proofreader, and keep your own voice for the actual coaching.
