How Grammarlyzer selects, writes, reviews, and corrects grammar guidance

Grammarlyzer exists to help writers solve practical English grammar and usage problems. Each page should answer a real writing question, show examples in context, and help users decide what to write next. We do not invent credentials or present automated suggestions as final authority.

How Topics Are Selected

Recurring Writing Problems

We prioritize grammar issues that cause real confusion in emails, essays, reports, resumes, and everyday writing.

Checker Follow-Up Needs

If a checker suggestion points to a rule users need to understand, we try to connect it to a focused lesson or hub page.

Useful Clusters

Related topics are grouped into hubs such as confused words, punctuation, sentence structure, modal verbs, and business or academic writing.

How Examples Are Written

Examples should be short enough to scan but specific enough to teach. A useful example normally shows the incorrect form, the corrected form, and the reason the correction works. We prefer practical contexts such as workplace email, school writing, technical documentation, reports, and casual conversation over generic placeholder sentences.

Review and Accuracy Standards

  • Rules are written in plain English and checked against the actual examples on the page.
  • Context-dependent issues are labeled as suggestions, preferences, or style choices when the rule is not absolute.
  • Pages avoid claims such as reliable accuracy, professional-editing replacement, or absolute writing promises.
  • Internal links should help users learn the next useful topic, not repeat unrelated SEO links.
  • Metadata, canonical URLs, structured data, sitemap entries, and redirects are validated before release.

How Tool Suggestions Are Treated

The grammar checker and AI Polish features provide suggestions. They can help find common issues, but they cannot fully judge audience, intent, citation rules, legal meaning, or company style. Users should review suggestions in context before accepting them.

Corrections and Updates

If a page is unclear or wrong, we update the explanation, examples, related links, or metadata. To report an issue, send the URL, the sentence or section, and the reason it looks incorrect through the contact page. We also review older pages for thin explanations, repeated examples, outdated claims, and weak links to the checker workflow.

Advertising and Independence

Grammarlyzer may display advertising to support the free checker. Ads do not determine grammar rules, example choices, article conclusions, or whether a page is corrected. Advertising and analytics disclosures are maintained in the privacy policy.

Correction Workflow

When a correction request arrives, we first identify whether the issue is factual, stylistic, contextual, technical, or only a preference. Factual grammar errors and broken links are fixed directly. Context-sensitive issues are rewritten to explain the condition more clearly, especially when a rule depends on audience, dialect, citation style, or formal register.

We do not claim individual academic credentials on pages unless they can be stated plainly and verified. The site presents practical grammar guidance, not legal, academic, immigration, medical, or professional editing advice.

How AI and Ads Are Kept Separate

AI Polish may help rewrite a user's own draft when requested, but generated wording is not treated as automatic editorial authority for the learning pages. Published examples should be checked against the rule they teach and rewritten when they are vague, misleading, or too generic.

Advertising support does not influence the answer on a grammar page, the examples chosen for a lesson, or whether a correction is accepted. Ads and analytics are disclosed through the privacy policy, and monetization code is kept off noindex demo or utility pages.
