GemType is a free, open-source Grammarly alternative — an AI grammar checker and text rewriter that works in any text field on any website, powered by your own free Google Gemini API key. No account, no subscription, no tracking.

Highlights

  • Live grammar & spelling checking with one-click fixes (native undo)
  • Automatic sentence re-check after every accepted fix
  • AI rewrites: Improve, Fix, Shorten, Formal, Casual
  • Any language, auto-detected
  • Minimal permissions: only storage and contextMenus (plus the Gemini API host). No activeTab, no broad tab access.
  • Private by design — text goes only to Google's Gemini API with your key; password, payment, and one-time-code fields are never read
