ChatGPT

An AI writing assistant that works inside email, docs and social apps, catching errors and adjusting tone in every client message you send.

What it is
ChatGPT
A general-purpose AI assistant with chat, file uploads, voice mode and image generation. Most of your clients have already used it, which matters: they will not find it strange that you do too.
Grammarly
A browser extension, desktop app and keyboard that checks and rewrites your writing wherever you type. The company behind it is now called Superhuman; the product keeps the Grammarly name.
Best for
ChatGPT
Everyday writing and thinking work. Save your voice, your offer and your coaching style as custom instructions or a project, and the drafts stop sounding like everyone else's.
Grammarly
Coaches who write a lot of client messages, especially in a second language. It catches the typo in a welcome email before a new client does.
Watch out for
ChatGPT
It is confident when it is wrong. Never let it be the source for a training, nutrition or medical claim, and check your plan's data settings before pasting anything a client told you in confidence.
Grammarly
Accept its rewrites and your messages start to sound like everyone else's. Use it as a proofreader, and keep your own voice for the actual coaching.
