Coach Pen vs Grammarly

Past clean grammar — coaching that lifts the score.

Grammarly is a brilliant proofreader: it polishes grammar, clarity and tone wherever you write. But it isn't built around an exam rubric, and it won't teach the techniques a marker rewards. Coach Pen marks your writing to the real criteria and coaches the moves that raise each one.
