There are some things that are annoying about Grammarly, but I appreciate the updates about my productivity it sends me. Recently, I hit a pretty significant milestone.

I eclipsed 1,000,000 words since I started using Grammarly in December of 2024. As of this note, I have written 1,132,190 words. That’s crazy!

The Grammarly insights share some other fun stats in these updates, such as your most common error, what your primary tone is, and if you use unique words. These change from week-to-week, so my error messages and tone shift quite regularly. However, one thing that remains consistent is that I use more unique words than 99% of Grammarly users.

That’s something…I guess.

    Out of curiosity, does Grammarly count the number of words you’ve written, or the number of words it checks? For example, if I wrote a blog post and went through 5 revisions, checking each revision once in Grammarly, does each revision get counted as “brand new”?

      That’s a great question! I have no idea. It is analyzing my writing in realtime, so I think it is analyzing all revisions I make. However, I don’t know if the count is for every word written or just the words Grammarly analyzes.
