Can I promote my own writing tool here?
Only if it genuinely connects to Grammarly products and services. Rule R5 makes Grammarly the primary objective of the sub, so a random pitch for something unrelated does not fit.

Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- R1: Be Civil & No trolling: We welcome your thoughts, opinions, beliefs, and ideas, provided you do so respectfully and politely. Additionally, any form of trolling, including concern-trolling, sea-lioning, flaming, or baiting other users will not be tolerated.
- R2: No hate speech or discrimination: Hate speech or attempt of discrimination directed towards groups of people based on race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, religion, nationality, social status, age, or disability is not allowed on the sub.
- R3: No personal attacks: Attacks on users will not be tolerated.
- R4: No false information: Do not spread false information. This includes posting any falsified information, photos, video, or audio.
- R5: Objective: This subReddit's primary objective is to welcome ongoing conversation surrounding Grammarly.com products and services.
- R6: No brigading: Brigading is a violation of Reddit-wide rules and is grounds for an immediate ban upon discovery.
- R7: Respect Reddit's global rules: Submissions which contain content that does not follow reddit's [content policy](https://www.reddit.com/help/contentpolicy) or follow [Reddiquette](https://www.reddithelp.com/en/categories/reddit-101/reddit-basics/reddiquette) guidelines will be removed.
- R8: No pirating Grammarly.: It is against Grammarly's software license agreement to resell its products and services or to freely share accounts. Sorry, we cannot encourage this kind of behavior here.
- R9: Respectful and Constructive Discussions: We welcome all feedback, but we ask that discussions remain civil, constructive, and respectful to others. Let's focus on ideas and support rather than personal criticisms.
Works well
- A firsthand writeup of how you use Grammarly in your daily writing workflow, with what worked and what did not
- A specific question about a Grammarly feature, like asking how other users handle a particular editing or tone setting
- A troubleshooting post describing a real issue you hit with a Grammarly product and what you tried so far
- A fair, constructive comparison of Grammarly against your own workflow, written as feedback rather than a pitch
- An honest ask for feedback on a companion tool that plugs into Grammarly, framed around the user problem first
Avoid
- Posting a link dump to your own product with no connection to Grammarly, because the community exists for Grammarly conversation and off topic posts get removed
- Writing a harsh takedown of Grammarly or attacking users who disagree with you, which trips “No personal attacks” and “Respectful and Constructive Discussions”
- Sharing or offering Grammarly accounts, or reselling subscriptions, which is banned under “No pirating Grammarly.”
- Coordinating a group of accounts to push or attack something here, which is brigading and grounds for an immediate ban
- Posting fake screenshots, invented claims, or made up stories about Grammarly, which breaks “No false information”
- Baiting people into arguments or trolling the comment section, which the rules call out specifically in “Be Civil & No trolling”
What r/Grammarly Is For
This community is built around one product. The public description says it is an engaging community to explore Grammarly's AI-powered writing assistant, where people hear firsthand from users, share experiences, and solve issues collaboratively. Rule R5, called “Objective”, makes that even clearer by saying the subreddit's primary objective is ongoing conversation around Grammarly.com products and services. So the people posting here are Grammarly users, people thinking about becoming users, and folks troubleshooting something with the product. If your post would make sense in a general writing tools room but has nothing to do with Grammarly, this is not the room for it.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rule that decides almost everything here is “Objective”, which says the subreddit's primary objective is ongoing conversation about Grammarly.com products and services. If your post is not about Grammarly in some real way, it is off topic and likely gets removed. “Be Civil & No trolling” and “Respectful and Constructive Discussions” set the tone, so even tough feedback has to be polite and aimed at ideas, not people. “No personal attacks” backs that up if a comment thread turns ugly. “No false information” matters if you share claims, screenshots, or comparisons, because anything falsified gets taken down. “No pirating Grammarly” is the one that trips people up, since reselling the product or sharing accounts freely is not allowed here. Finally, “No brigading” and “Respect Reddit's global rules” are the standard guardrails, and brigading is called out as grounds for an immediate ban.
What To Post
A good post here is honest and useful, and it is clearly about Grammarly. If you are a founder, the safest shapes are experience posts and genuine questions. Share a real story about how Grammarly fit into your writing workflow, or ask the community how they handle something specific with the product. If you built something that connects to Grammarly, like a tool that works alongside it, frame the post around the user problem and mention your product honestly rather than pitching. Feedback posts are welcome too, the rules say all feedback is welcome as long as discussions stay civil, constructive, and respectful. So a fair, specific critique of a Grammarly feature can do well, while a rant will not.
What To Avoid
The fastest way to get removed is posting something with no real connection to Grammarly, because the whole sub exists for conversation about that product. Do not attack users, flame people, or bait anyone into an argument, since trolling and personal attacks are both named as forbidden. Do not spread false information, which includes falsified photos, video, or audio, so keep any claims or screenshots honest. Never offer to share or resell Grammarly accounts, that is a hard no under the rules. And do not organize people to swarm a post or a thread, because brigading is a Reddit-wide violation and the moderators say it means an immediate ban when discovered.

Common questions about r/Grammarly
Can I share honest criticism of Grammarly?
Yes, and the rules explicitly welcome all feedback, but it must stay civil, constructive, and respectful. A fair critique framed as an idea or a question survives, a rant does not.
Are links allowed?
The rules do not say anything about links either way, so there is no published permission. Keep any link clearly relevant to the Grammarly conversation and do not lean on it.
Can I offer a discount code or shared account?
No. Rule R8 forbids freely sharing accounts and reselling products and services, and the moderators say they cannot encourage that behavior.
Can I ask for help with a Grammarly bug or billing issue?
Yes, the description invites people to solve issues collaboratively, so a clear description of your problem with a Grammarly product is a good fit.
