Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 7.2 Save to Pocket offers a range of useful functions. ![]() The tagging system is particularly helpful for anyone who wants to organize and find their tags. This did not always work perfectly in the test. Sometimes websites were tagged, but these did not appear in the search with a unique search term. ![]() Compared to competitors such as Web-Highlights, the highlighting function is only possible after saving a website in the pocket and then searching there. It is not possible to highlight directly on the website. ![]() | 9.0 LanguageTool offers a comprehensive set of features that go beyond basic grammar and spelling checks.

Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 8.0 The free version offers basic functions that should be sufficient for many users. The premium version offers additional functions such as full-text searches or improved tagging. The price-performance ratio is fine for us but could be too high for many basic users if they only use it occasionally. | 9.5 The free version gives you the basics, but the premium version really shines with its advanced features. While Grammarly can be expensive, LanguageTool offers great value at a more affordable price. So, if you’re seeking a budget-friendly alternative to Grammarly, LanguageTool is a solid choice.

However, there could be stronger assurances regarding data security and liability for third-party services. | 9.5 LanguageTool takes privacy seriously. No account is required for basic features, and the tool ensures that user data is not sold or made public. This focus on privacy is a significant plus.
