What Hemingway Editor does

Hemingway Editor works on text you paste or write into it and marks what makes it hard to read. Highlights are color-coded: yellow for hard-to-read sentences, red for very hard ones, purple for words with simpler alternatives, and blue for adverbs, passive voice and weakening phrases. Alongside the highlights it shows a readability grade, a word count and how many sentences are hard to read.

The free version stops at scoring and flagging. Hemingway Editor Plus is the paid subscription that uses AI to fix highlighted issues, check grammar and adjust tone or style. It marks grammar, clarity and consistency issues in green and can follow a chosen style guide.

Plus plans are counted in AI sentences per month: 5,000 on Individual 5K, and 10,000 on Individual 10K and Team 10K, with Team 10K covering up to 50 users on one bill. Enterprise has custom pricing. The trial lasts 14 days with up to 200 AI sentence corrections, needs no credit card, and does not automatically convert to a paid account.
