I don't know a lot about either, but here is some info.

I have seen several Acrolinx implementations in tech docs tools. Acrolinx has plugins for various tech docs tools like Word, Oxygen editor, etc. I have also seen it implemented in DITA content management systems, where it can be used to validate files that a writer if checking in. Acrolinx is a vendor and presenter at many tech docs trade shows. I've talked to them at the yearly DITA conference, for example.

With Grammarly, all I know about them is from ads I have seen on Youtube videos. I have not seen them at a tech docs conference. I have no idea of its capabilities.

One more thing. If you are open source oriented, there is an open source program called Vale that does many things that Acrolinx does. I know a couple people who use it:

Looking for info on comparing Acrolinx and Grammarly, but not finding what I want online.

Does anyone have any resources that might show a feature and usage comparison?

* Your company did it already and you can share
* Presentation from DitaWorld, STC Conference, etc.

We've got a few people using Grammarly individually, and we've talked to Acrolinx and Grammarly for their business implementations, but neither has provided anything to compare.

Thx
Carla
