#92I have been using LanguageTool[1] for years as "an open source alternative to [old school] Grammarly". It doesn't do that fancy "make this text more professional" AI stuff like this or Grammarly can now do, but they offer a self-hosted version so you don't need to send everything you write to OpenAI. If all you want is a better spelling/grammar checker, I highly recommend it. [1] - https://github.com/languagetool-org…
You don't get the AI based extras like paraphrasing, and the other bits listed in as premium only (https://languagetool.org/premium_new), but if you install the n-gram DB for your language (https://languagetool.org/download/ngram-data/) I found it at least as good as, for some examples better than, Grammarly's free offering last time I did a comparison.

This! And what's more - it doesn't funnel all what I type to OpenAI so I'd say it's more FOSS than this extension…

That looks pretty neat, how well does the gemini nano model work for this? Is it just picking up spelling errors or also looking things like punctuation?
You can have a look at the screenshots in the repository or on the store page.

#95Obviously not important enough to put in the title, or a submission statement here, though. Curious.
Re: Scramble: Open-Source Alternative to Grammarly
#96How does this compare to https://languagetool.org , which is also open source? I'm not sure what kind of AI Languagetool uses but it works really well!
LanguageTool is not open source; it is open core. There are proprietary "premium rules," and you won't get them in a self-hosted version.

#98After years with Grammarly, I wanted a simpler, cheaper way to improve my writing. So I built Scramble, a Chrome extension that uses an LLM for writing enhancements. Key features: - Uses your OpenAI API key (100% local) - Pre-defined prompts for various improvements - Highlight text and wait for suggestions - Currently fixed to GPT-4-turbo Future plans: add LLM provider/model choice, custom prompts, bug fixes, and im…
> Key features: - Uses your OpenAI API key (100% local) Sorry, but we have a fundamental disagreement on terms here. Sending requests to OpenAI is not 100% local. The OpenAI API is not free or open source. By your definition, if you used the Grammarly API for this extension it would be a 100% local, open source alternative to Grammarly too.

Does it work in "not a browser" though? Because that's the last place I need this, I really want this in Typora, VS Code, etc. instead.

Rookie question: the openAPI endpoint costs extra right? Not something that comes with chatGPT or chatGPT+.
