by M01t3n, 16 days agoI used this tool for several months and and had a good experience with it for a long time, however, the recent changes make it unusable as an extension without paying.
Prior to this, I would have given it a 5-star rating, and should have, but I cannot currently do so given the price.
I wish for the best and hope that it does well, though I will personally not continue using it for the foreseeable future, even if I understand the reasoning behind the changes. If you are willing to pay for its services however, it is very high quality and I experienced few, if any issues with it.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18462043, 14 hours agoThe overuse of AI is getting tiring. I dont want an "enhanced experience designed to make my writing sound more professional, eloquent and solid", I want a spellcheck that works on several languages, the list of which I can choose from and customize. It was perfect before, there was no reason to change it

- Rated 1 out of 5by Thomasp942, a day agoThis extension used to be great and it worked perfectly for years. Then all of a sudden it starts with annoying popups all the time and it no longer works. What a shame.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20147637, 2 days agoNow requires payment to fund AI features no one asked for. So long, and thanks for the fish.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 19898616, 2 days agoNoooo!!! This was one of my top 3 extensions that I always choose when I reinstall everything. And now it's pay only? Please no!

- Rated 1 out of 5by HSR, 2 days agoBisher ein sehr gutes Plugin, jedoch als Bezahlvariante für mich nicht mehr interessant, daher nur einen Stern
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20144828, 3 days ago"Oh, we need more money, to run AI in I language tool, pay us, peasants". Yeah, how about you don't use AI, then? Also, you greedy bastards got public funding, for what? To rob people?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20143857, 3 days agoThey changed it today to a fully paid service even for the basic tasks. Can not recommend. Just bait.
- Rated 1 out of 5by zerojun, 3 days agoAs of September 4, 2026, at 8:54 p.m., this add-on no longer functions as described, which constitutes misleading advertising.
Now, users with limited financial means are being intentionally excluded—and this is happening at a company that receives public funding, which makes me seriously question its eligibility for such funding.
The add-on used to be very good, but due to a decision that was made, it’s barely worth 1 star anymore.
It’s a shame that there are companies that intentionally exclude people.
