A better alternative to ChatGPT

Save time

Writing prompts again and again in
ChatGPT can become a frustrating time
drain, especially when it misunderstands
your instructions. With Engram, you
just
enter your text and click Submit to do a
full grammar check immediately.
No
chatting required.

Get high-quality results

ChatGPT often generates results that are
inaccurate or completely different
from
what was intended, not to mention that
it’s not designed for checking
grammar in
the first place. Engram, however, is
powered by a robust suite of
technology
and regularly undergoes evaluation by
human linguists to ensure
that the high
quality of Engram’s output is maintained.

Try our clean and intuitive UI

The chatting interface of ChatGPT
quickly gets cluttered with prompts and
messages about the text, which
becomes distracting and makes it hard to
see
exactly where edits are made. On the
other hand, Engram has a clean user
interface where the only thing users have
to enter is their text. That makes it
easy
to stay focused on the text and see
color-coded edits.

Catch the most complicated grammar errors

Our advanced grammar checker can not only spell check and punctuation check, it’s capable of catching complicated mistakes with word order, word choice, awkward wording, and more. Powered by a proprietary algorithm built on top of state-of-the-art generative AI like ChatGPT, Engram analyzes sentences as a whole to provide suggestions based on the context.

Articles (a, an, the)

Articles are especially hard for non-native speakers because of all the exceptions to the rule. Engram’s AI grammar checker is able to suggest the appropriate article according to the context.

For example, when talking about “society” in general, no article is needed.

Original

Many things have changed in the society.

Suggestion

Many things have changed in the society.

Word order

Word order is a tricky issue that basic spell checkers and punctuation checkers aren’t able to handle. Engram, however, can rearrange the words in the optimal order that is most natural.

For example, “chart below” is more commonly used than “below chart.”

Original

Look at the below chart.

Suggestion

Look at the below chart. chart below.

Word choice

English is full of common phrases and idioms that can be hard to memorize. It’s even harder when they sound similar, but have extremely different meanings, like “peace of mind” and “piece of (my) mind.” Our AI grammar checker fully analyzes the context to help you figure out the right word to use.

For example, rather than “crash,” it’s most natural to use the verb “break” in the phrase “breaks my heart.”

Original

The fact that she is no longer with us crashes my heart.

Suggestion

The fact that she is no longer with us crashes breaks my heart.

Spell check

From typos to commonly confused misspellings, anyone can make a spelling mistake here and there. Engram can catch all mistyped letters and spaces to make sure your writing is error-free.

For example, “complement” is the right spelling to use in this sentence, and misspelling it as “compliment,” which has a different meaning, can lead to confusion.

Original

The shoes compliment your outfit.

Suggestion

The shoes compliment complement your outfit.

Awkward wording

Non-native speakers may unintentionally use sentence patterns from their native language, leading to expressions in English that aren’t necessarily grammatically wrong but sound very awkward. Engram helps you restructure awkward phrases to create natural-sounding English sentences.

For example, the participial phrase “turning on the fan” can be more naturally expressed as the prepositional phrase “with the fan turned on.”

Original

Yesterday, we went to bed turning on the fan.

Suggestion

Yesterday, we went to bed turning on with the fan. fan turned on.

Engram is not just
“accurate enough”

Other grammar checkers may be “accurate enough,” but Engram is exceptional. In a blind test against our competitors, Engram ranked first, leading by more than 15 percentage points in error correction. Every week, our dedicated team of linguists conducts rigorous evaluations to ensure that we provide the highest accuracy.

Why our users love Engram

The best AI proofreader
for non-native English speakers

For non-native English speakers, I strongly recommend Engram over Grammarly. I often get annoyed when Grammarly changes every
instance of passive voice to active voice, but Engram doesn’t do that.

A detailed and accurate
grammar checker

Using ChatGPT is inconvenient because I have to input a prompt
every time, and it often generates results that are different from what
I intended, making it difficult to trust. On the other hand, Engram is
easy to use because I only need to click a button to get reliable results. Thanks to Engram, I can quickly process a large number of documents.

Experts generally agree that current AI detection tools are unreliable. They often give false positives, saying that human-written text was generated by AI, and they often disagree with each other. In our own tests, we’ve found that sentences checked by Engram’s grammar checker are detected as human with some tools and AI or mixed with other tools. The best thing to do is to ask about the official policy on using AI tools at your school or company and use AI responsibly according to those guidelines.
