Grammarly integration

Check spelling, grammar, and tone as you compose messages in MessageDesk using Grammarly, a free browser extension that works anywhere you type.
MessageDesk doesn’t include built-in spell check. Grammarly is a third-party tool that adds this functionality to your browser.

​
What Grammarly does

Grammarly checks your writing in real time as you type in MessageDesk:
  • Spelling: catches typos and misspelled words.
  • Grammar: flags grammatical errors and suggests corrections.
  • Punctuation: identifies missing or incorrect punctuation.
  • Tone: analyzes your message tone (friendly, formal, confident, etc.).
  • Clarity: suggests ways to make your writing clearer and more concise.
Corrections appear as underlined suggestions directly in the compose field. Click a suggestion to accept it, or ignore it to keep your original text.
