Watch out: Sentence-level by design, so it will not fix a paragraph that is structured wrong. The free tier runs to 10 rewrites a day and 3 AI summaries a month, and even the middle plan is capped at 30 rewrites a day — only the top plan is actually unlimited, which is what its name is doing.

Watch out: An add-on rather than a standalone purchase: the enterprise Copilot seat is $30 a user a month on top of a qualifying Microsoft 365 licence you must already hold, and Copilot Chat is only included if you already pay for an eligible subscription.

Two things separate these and both are on every card.
Fit
Whether a tool is built for this job, a strong fit for it, or
able to do it without that being its focus.
Free plan
Whether there is a tier you can keep using rather than a
trial that expires.
The order
Fit first, then a free plan, then alphabetical. There is
no score, no weighting we decline to publish, and nothing on this site a company can buy.
Questions
What is the best ai for writing emails?
There is no single answer, which is why this page lists 10 rather than one: Gemini in Workspace, Microsoft 365 Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Grammarly, Copy.ai, HyperWrite, Wordtune, DeepL Write, TextCortex. 6 of them are built for this kind of work rather than able to do it. Start with a free one.
Which of these have a free plan?
9 of the 10: Gemini in Workspace, ChatGPT, Claude, Grammarly, Copy.ai, HyperWrite, Wordtune, DeepL Write, TextCortex. Free means a real free tier you can keep using, not a trial that expires.
How was this list chosen?
By hand, from the 750 products this site tracks, and it is checked against the catalogue on every build — a product renamed or removed breaks the build rather than quietly disappearing from here. Nothing on this site can be paid for: no listing, no position, no wording.
