# Content tools

> Grammar checking and paraphrasing for the copy you're about to publish.

**Content Tools** holds two AI-powered writing utilities. Both take pasted text and return results immediately — nothing is stored, and neither is tied to your tracked keywords or crawled pages.

## Grammar Check

Paste text into the box — *"Paste your text here to check for grammar issues…"* — and click **Check Grammar**.

The result is either **no issues found** or a count (`7 issues found`) followed by the list. Each issue names the problem and offers one or more **suggestions** you can apply yourself.

Useful as a final pass before publishing, particularly on copy assembled from several people or translated from another language.

## Paraphrase

Paste text into the second box — *"Paste your text here to get a rewritten version…"* — and submit. You get back a rewritten version of the passage, with a **Quality** score to one decimal place where one is available.

The quality score reflects how well the rewrite preserves the original meaning. A low score usually means the source was ambiguous, heavily jargoned, or too short to rewrite meaningfully.

<Warning>
  Paraphrasing existing content doesn't make it original in the way search engines care about. Rewriting a competitor's page produces something that reads differently and says nothing new — which is exactly the pattern thin- and duplicate-content checks are designed to catch. Use it to tighten your own drafts, not to reproduce someone else's.
</Warning>

## What these tools don't do

They're writing aids, not SEO tools. Specifically, they don't:

* Score content against a target keyword
* Analyze competing pages or suggest topics to cover
* Check the pages on your site — paste text in manually
* Save anything; results disappear when you navigate away

For content problems on your actual site, use a [site audit](/audits/overview) — the `content` category covers [thin content](/audits/issues#content) below 300 words and near-duplicate pages, checked against pages that were actually crawled.

For deciding *what* to write, use [keyword research](/keywords/research) and read the [intent](/keywords/metrics#intent) column: matching page format to intent affects rankings far more than prose quality does.

## Usage

Both tools call an external service on each request and draw on your plan's allowance. See [Usage and limits](/billing/usage).
