nonolingo vs grammarly: correct english vs english that sounds like you
grammarly underlined nothing. your message is correct. your colleague still read it as a letter from a bank.

both tools sit on top of the apps you already use, and both fix mistakes. the difference is the problem each one was built for. grammarly is built around correctness and clarity for anyone writing english. nonolingo is built for people who think in another language, whose english is often correct but reads as translated.

pick grammarly if
- you write long documents or work across Windows and Mac
- you need plagiarism checks or team style guides
- your english already sounds natural and you want polish
pick nonolingo if
- you think in vietnamese (or another language) and write in english all day
- your grammar is fine but the tone sounds translated
- you reply to clients and want a draft from their message
you can run both. if you do, pick one for in-box suggestions so two popups are not fighting over the same sentence.
