Here you will be able to see all the features the extension has to offer. You can assign shortcut keys to proofread your article and make sure there are no errors. Similar to other tools like Microsoft Word, it’s not 100% correct as it uses artificial intelligence to check for errors and grammatical mistakes, however, it’s better than nothing if you ask me. You can also manually select the rules which the extension should check in a document. Another useful feature of the extension is the multilingual support. If you want, you can even add phrases or words, or any slang words used while updating statuses or while chatting, which the extension should exclude when proofreading any article.
Now, open any website like Twitter or post editor, start typing and it will show you underlined keywords that need to be changed. Clicking on the words will show you suggestions which can rectify the errors.
