I had a character who I gave a 'placeholder name' of Lt. Commander Stokely. (Changed it to a better name). Hemingway considered 'Stokely' an adverb. Apparently their genius sophisticated algorithm is based on thinking any word that ends in 'ly' must be an adverb. You get what you pay for, or maybe a lot less.
On some levels, Grammarly is very helpful; on others, it's extremely frustrating while writing because it fails to learn what you have corrected yourself in the past and continues to "fix" the same thing over and over again. The other thing I have noticed is that it gives me different advice for the same document but in different places, like Google Docs, Wordpress, and Facebook. It is quite control mad!
Most writers I know use Grammarly premium. 30$ per month is honestly way too much for this. But then again I have yet to experience how far premium goes. But it's still a lot considering if you have other subscription services you have to pay for... I've also seem writers use Grammarly with Quilbot as replacing Hemingway Editor and they seem to prefer Quilbot a lot more. Anyways good video!
This guy's analysis stands out as far as online tools like Grammarly are concerned.
