Grammarly
General writing assistant with some academic tone detection. Can identify overly casual language and suggest more formal alternatives.

Grammarly
Basic citation awareness can detect missing citations in some contexts. No citation generation, source search, or reference management capabilities. Cannot verify academic sources or format bibliographies. Users must manage citations entirely through external tools and manually insert them.
