GenieAI vs Grammarly

These two tools solve different shapes of contract problem. The questions below tell you which one you have.

Questions worth asking before you choose

• Do you need to draft, review and negotiate commercial contracts with clause-level risk assessment, or do you need to polish the tone and grammar of your organisation's everyday business writing? For contract drafting, review and negotiation, choose GenieAI. For improving general writing quality across emails, decks and documents, Grammarly is built for that.
• Is your priority a legal workspace with a template and clause library, tracked changes, approval workflows and contract management, or a writing layer that sits across every app your staff already use? For a dedicated contract workspace, choose GenieAI. If you want a writing assistant embedded in Slack, browsers and Office across the whole company, Grammarly is built for that.
• When you open a supplier agreement, do you need AI that flags risky clauses and suggests fallback wording, or do you need spelling, clarity and style corrections? For legal risk analysis and clause suggestions, choose GenieAI. For proofreading and style, Grammarly is built for that.

Choose GenieAI if

• Review needs to be actionable by the business, not just accurate. GenieAI rates clauses red, amber or green against your own positions, so a commercial lead can see what to challenge without waiting for a lawyer to interpret it.
• You want the whole contract in one place, whether or not you draft today. GenieAI covers review and negotiation and drafting. Many teams start with review alone and add drafting later.
• Your team works in Word. The Word add-in puts review and drafting where the documents already live, with styling and numbering intact.
• A commercial, procurement or operations lead is doing the work, not a lawyer.
• You run project-based work where value concentrates in a few large agreements, as in construction, energy, mining, technology and real estate. A single missed indemnity or variation clause costs more than the whole review process.
• Where contract data sits matters. GenieAI is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, set out on our security page.

Consider Grammarly if

• Grammarly is built to raise the clarity, tone and consistency of everyday writing across an entire organisation, embedded wherever your people type rather than focused on the contract itself.

Where GenieAI is not the answer

• You are a law firm delivering billable client matters. GenieAI is built for the legal work a business does on its own contracts, including a firm's own commercial paperwork. It is not a matter-management or client-delivery tool.
• If your goal is company-wide writing quality across email, chat and documents for hundreds of non-legal staff, rather than managing the contract lifecycle, GenieAI is not the tool you are shopping for.

Which alternative fits depends less on the feature list than on who is blocked.

Best for commercial and sales teams

The bottleneck is legal review time on standard sales agreements. GenieAI lets the commercial team draft and send inside guardrails legal sets, so legal sees the exceptions rather than everything.

Best for in-house legal

The bottleneck is routine volume reaching a small team. Teams at this stage typically compare GenieAI, Grammarly, Spellbook, Luminance. The deciding question is usually whether review output can be acted on by the business itself, or whether every flagged clause still routes back to legal.

Best for procurement and supplier contracts

Paper arrives on the counterparty's terms and has to be reviewed and negotiated against your standard positions. The question is whether the tool knows what your positions are, not just what the document says.

You do not need to arrive with anything prepared. We do the work with you.

What we handle

• Bringing your agreements across. You do not need to sort, clean or categorise anything first. We take what you have in whatever state it is in.
• Turning your positions into a playbook. Most teams have never written these down, and that is completely normal. We draw them out in a working session and turn them into something the system enforces.
• Your templates, formatting intact. They come over in Word with complex legal styling, numbering and clause formatting preserved, so nothing needs rebuilding.

What changes in week one

Review output comes back rated against your positions rather than a generic standard, so a commercial colleague can act on it directly instead of forwarding it to legal. Review, negotiation and drafting sit in one place, so the same tool covers the contract for as long as you need it.
