I call it a "Proof reading tool" as the Language Tool at the same time
does less than some well known Grammar Checkers but OTOH does also more.

I like this term. This way it's more clear to the users what they can expect (and they can expect it from most so-called grammar checkers, IMHO).

It can check text against any rules, not only Grammar, but of course it
lacks the more sophisticated abilities of specialized Grammar Checkers
that have been in development for many years.

It depends on the language you're talking about. The only commercial grammar checker for Polish has 7 general rules, whereas LanguageTool has currently about 700, including 6 of those general ones. (The number of rules is of course only a rough way of comparing proof reading tools but it's hard to evaluate without generally accessible and comprehensive error corpora).

Anyway, we're willing to switch to the new GC API as soon as it's available.

Best regards,
Marcin
