apple's writing tools are a real gift: built into macOS, free, and available across apps. you select text and ask it to proofread or rewrite (friendly, professional, concise). they need apple intelligence, which per apple requires an M1 or later Mac and macOS 15.1 or later, with device and siri language set to a supported language.

pick apple writing tools if

  • you have an apple silicon Mac and want something free and built in
  • you mostly polish text you already wrote in english
  • you prefer not to install anything

pick nonolingo if

  • you want help as you type, without selecting first
  • you think in vietnamese or another language
  • you are on an intel Mac

built-in is great when you remember to use it. in-the-box is great when you don't have time to.
