MerciApp: The application that will wage war on spelling mistakes!
Greg Taieb · · 2 min read
With each email, report or post on social networks we expose our credibility. Letting mistakes (spelling or grammar) or just typos slip through can harm your image and distract attention from your message. Basically, we're going to fixate on your mistakes to the detriment of the substance.
I'm far from perfect in the field (it even earned me a few rewards) and I have envied for several years our English-speaking friends who had the application Grammarly. If you've never heard of it, it's an extension to install on your browser that corrects everything you write on the fly. Only, to my knowledge, there was no equivalent in French...
This is where MerciApp which works like Grammarly by checking and highlighting all the mistakes you make and proposing a correction. It works 10x better than the integrated Office proofreader and has the advantage of being available where I type most of my texts: in a browser.
Here's how it works:
I have been testing MerciApp for 10 days and it works really well. We even have the possibility of uploading entire documents to have them corrected. It's just magical.
How much does it cost?
The modem business is as follows: there is a full version that you can test for free for 15 days. After that you fall back into the free version which I find to be quite limited (the majority of mistakes are underlined but not corrected).
The paid version is €12/month. We could consider that this is not cheap, however I think that it is a cheap price paid to no longer have any mistakes in your writing.
In any case I encourage you to test for 15 days by clicking on the following link and tell me what you think.
And that’s it for this week!
