Managed by: Admins, account managers, group managers, and members with designated custom roles
Writing preferences allow you to customize Grammarly’s suggestions to your team’s writing style. You can manage a preset selection of stylistic suggestion types, turning on the types of suggestions relevant to your team’s specific use case and turning off those that don’t fit your needs.
Using the Free plan? Upgrade to Pro to take advantage of this and other advanced writing features. Go to www.grammarly.com/plans to compare what Pro has to offer and choose the plan that works best for you.
To get started, go to the Org preferences page located under the Writing tab on your admin Home page.
To set a writing preference, click the dropdown menu next to it and select one of the three options: On for all, Off for all, or No preference.
By default, all settings are set to No preference, and team members can set their personal writing preferences. Once you turn on or turn off a suggestion type for the team, your choice will override your team members’ personal preferences.
Note: If you’re an admin, and a writing preference you want to change is locked, please review this article: A writing preference I want to change is locked by the admin
How do I create additional writing preference sets?
Note: This option is unavailable in the Grammarly Pro plan.
To create additional writing preference sets, follow these steps:
- Go to the Writing Preferences page, click on the three dots in the upper-right corner of the page, and choose Create preference set.
- In the window that appears next, click Create preference set.
- Enter the preference set name, select the groups you’d like it to be assigned to, and click Save.
If you haven’t created any member groups yet, you can refer to this article to do so: Organize team members into groups
How do I assign a writing preference set to team members?
Note: If you’re on the Grammarly Pro plan, writing preferences apply to all members.
-
Go to the Writing Preferences page, click on the three dots in the right-side corner next to the corresponding writing preference set, and select Settings:
- In the window that appears next, select a member group and click Save.
Note: A single member group can have only one writing preference set assigned to it. If you assign a different writing preference set to a group that already has one assigned to it, they will no longer see suggestions from the original writing preference set. On the other hand, a single writing preference set can be assigned to multiple member groups.
If you have an individual Pro subscription, you can extend the power of advanced features to your teammates by adding more seats to your subscription. This helps your team stay consistent, save time, and focus on high‑value work. Go to the Members page to add your teammates.
How do I delete a writing preference set?
- Go to the Writing Preferences page, click on the three dots in the right-side corner next to the corresponding writing preference set, and select Delete.
- In the window that appears next, confirm the action by clicking Delete again.
What access do team members with different roles have?
Team members with the admin or account manager roles have editing permissions for all writing preference sets: they can create, edit, or delete writing preference sets assigned to any of the existing member groups.
Team members with group manager permissions can create and edit writing preference sets only for the groups they are assigned to manage.
If you’re a Grammarly Enterprise admin, you can also create a custom role that grants permissions to manage writing preferences for your organization or multiple teams, but without full admin privileges. You can learn more in this article: About custom roles
Note: The group manager permissions and custom roles are available only to Grammarly Enterprise customers. Interested in upgrading to an Enterprise account? Contact our Sales team.
