Scope of review
Focused feedback on writing mechanics
This checker is intentionally narrower than a grader, plagiarism scan or fact check. It looks for mechanics that can interrupt a reader and explains its proposed repair.
Spelling
Surface likely misspellings in context and compare the exact original wording with the suggestion.
Punctuation
Inspect commas, apostrophes, sentence endings and other punctuation that may interrupt meaning.
Need a score against a rubric?
Use the Essay Grader for supported academic rubrics, scoring, strengths and areas to improve. Proofreading does not judge whether an argument satisfies an assessment standard.
Open Essay GraderKeep editorial judgment in the loop
Automated language review can flatten intentional voice, misread specialist terms or miss context. Read the sentence around every change and follow the conventions of your class, publication or style guide.
Questions
Essay Checker FAQ
What does the Essay Checker review?
It reviews submitted text for grammar, spelling and punctuation problems. Each result includes the original passage, a suggested correction and an explanation. It does not verify facts, citations or plagiarism.
Is the Essay Checker free?
Yes. You can check text without creating an account. Temporary request limits protect the service from automated abuse.
Does it grade my essay?
No. Proofreading and grading are different tasks. This page checks writing mechanics; the Essay Grader evaluates a supported assessment rubric and returns score-based feedback.
Does the checker rewrite my entire essay?
No. It returns focused corrections and leaves the draft under your control. Nothing changes until you choose Apply suggestion or Apply all.
Can an automated checker miss an error?
Yes. Language depends on context, voice and discipline-specific conventions. Treat every suggestion as a review prompt and read important work once more before submitting it.
What happens to text I paste?
Nothing is sent while you type. When you start a check, the submitted text is sent to the proofreading service for processing. Avoid submitting confidential or restricted material.
