Hemingway Reviews & Product Details

Hemmingway is a simple to use app with a decent set of tools and comes at a reasonable price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hemmingway would be alright for simple evaluation of your writing but I find it too simple. It also doesn't integrate directly into software I use like other options Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The web interface is super easy to use to paste text, format, check style, and see suggestions. The formatting tools have improved a lot since I started using Hemingway (~5 years ago, I think). All suggestions are clear and contextualized helpfully with the color-coding and dropdowns. I love the ability to switch from writing to editing mode, so you can write clean and then turn on the edits/suggestions. Built-in word counter, time to read, and other basic things are all there and helpful as well. I'll have more on this in the Dislike section, but I think it can be very helpful in an academic setting to help people cut out the jargony, overly-formal academic-ish language that creeps into some emails/communications.

As the title says, the tool doesn't run a comprehensive grammar check a la Grammarly, Bartleby, etc. - but for free, without a sign-in, this is just fine. I think its use does require careful consideration; I wouldn't recommend this to my creative writing students or faculty, but for disciplines or jobs that need to state their points clearly, the style can be helpful. I don't think the goal should be to homogenize writing styles, but aiming for clarity and communication never hurts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Incredibly accessible tool that you can write directly into or paste text from elsewhere that shows you what parts of your writing are confusing or difficult to read. Everything makes sense in your own head but it does not always translate to other people the way you think it will so clear, simple, and direct typically wins.

Mainly how it points out how complicated my natural writing style is lol. There isn't much to dislike honestly. You can use the web version free forever with no restrictions. Both web and paid desktop version deliver on a very simple promise and the algorithm is solid for catching confusing language & telling you what 'Grade Level' your writing measures out at.

I love Hemingway. So much. My favorite features by far are the readability grade level and the grammar suggestions. I don't always use Hemingway's suggestions in my communications, but I do find it incredibly useful when tailoring to a certain audience and for the type of message I want to come across. For example, if I'm writing a general communication to my company and want it to be short and to the point, I'd want to meet the "passive goal" voice and have a general readability of grade 6. However, if I'm drafting a specialized or technical communication, I can draft my communication in a higher readability grade level. Character count is great as well.

Not much, honestly. A dark themed version would be nice, but no real complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy it is to see the readability metrics. I like the color coding of problems found with the text. The readability score is great to easily target a certain level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Additional suggestions would be helpful. Sometimes knowing something is a problem doesn't necessarily make it easy to fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Surprisingly helpful tech. The AI is smarter than you'd think. Helps make memos clear and strong. Wouldn't use it every day but it I think would especially be helpful to those young in their career / new to office speak. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not perfect obviously. Sometimes I don't agree with the suggestions. However you don't have to take them up on everything. Occasionally it'll suggest something that doesn't make sense but ideally you'll know what to use and what not to. I think a browser extension would be a good add on to the tool - I think that'd make people use it more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hemingway reviews your writing for its accuracy. If you make a grammatical mistake, Hemingway suggests a correction. Is it a grammar correction tool? Wait It grades your writing on certain parameters. This grading and after edits allow you to craft a message straight to your audience. As they say, Hemingway App makes your writing bold and clear.

Sometimes you don't know how to fix the issues in the sentence. Although Hemingway provides suggestions oftentimes those suggestions don't meet the requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how when using Hemingway, I can see the quality of my writing in real time. The editor is simple to use and effective at pointing out mistakes. It also helps to improve my writing over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is not as engaging as I'd like but that's to be expected from a free tool. Sometimes that's actually a good things because the heels and whistles can distract you from the flaws. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a very simple app that requires no sign-ups. Has no advertisements. Just does what it's supposed to do. The interface is very easy to use and you know exactly what you are getting the moment you land on the website. There's only one page to the whole website and it helps improve your written material without any hassles. It's very fast, and the pointers help you to improve your writing as well. The readability score is what I came to this app for as it helps you to get an approximate idea of the readability of your text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing to dislike with this. It is nonobstructive and does what it promises. I initially thought it was an alternative to Grammarly, but this gives more contextual insights on whether your receivers would actually understand your message. Maybe, they can build on this to add more features to correct grammar, but that might make the system bulky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love its functionality and ease of use. Whenever I am stuck on a word or am in a mad-dash to type a paragraph or two out, Hemingway has my back. It identifies all my errors and provides suggestions for me. The free version is excellent for my needs. It's a very dependable tool with a great system of words and suggestions to make your writing better. Besides, if you name your product after one of my favorite writers, it has to be good. And it certainly lives up to the experience with ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't say I like its user interface. I think there can be improvements to make the product more attractive (to a broader audience), rather than seem old and boring because it certainly is not. I also experience some lag, but I have yet to confirm whether it's my computer or not. My biggest issue with this product is that I have to paste in the words and recommendations into other software I am using such as Microsoft Word or browsers. It is not easy to integrate, but it isn't difficult to paste in the wording to a separate application either. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
