Academic Writing Success

The Top 9 Free Online Editing Tools For Writing Excellent Papers

by Suzanne Davis | Mar 10, 2022 | Writing Resources | 7 comments

I dread editing.

9 Excellent Free Online Editing Tools for Polished Academic Writing Blog Post

Editing isn’t my superpower; it is my writing weakness . It’s painful and tedious, but it can transform a bad or ok research paper into an excellent one. And while no online editing tool can replace a human’s eyes for mistakes, several free websites and tools make editing more straightforward (so, we spend less time proofreading until our life force drains out). 

When I first started tutoring, I began looking for editing and revising resources for writers. I’ve expanded my list over the years, but last year I got an angry email. 

It read, “I WANT A FREE PLAGIARISM CHECKER!”

Aside from the fact that writing an email in all capital letters was not polite, I was curious. The person who wrote it asked me about a blog post from 2 years ago.  On my list of free editing tools was a plagiarism checker. 

I clicked the link in my blog post and went back to the plagiarism checker, and now it wasn’t free. Now, that at least explained why the email was in capital letters. My list was outdated (which is a significant blogging no-no).  

Oh no, I needed to fix that, so I did. Here’s my updated blog post with proofreading, revising, and reference checking online tools.

Top 9 Online Editing Tools for Academic Writing

This is my list of the top 9 free online editing resources that will immediately improve your academic writing. they are online editing tools i love.  but, i’m not affiliated with any of the companies or people who created them.  and for this post, i only used free accounts or free versions of these resources..

9 Free Online Editing Tools for Academic Writing List

Online Editing Tools for Writing Style

#1 grammarly editor.

Grammarly  https://www.grammarly.com  corrects contextual spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and style. You can use it in MS Word, Google Docs, and your desktop. It also tells you the text’s emotion (tone) and formality.

One of the things I love about Grammarly is that you can change your language preference, which is helpful when I’m working with someone who is writing in British, Canadian, or Australian English. Spelling and punctuation change depending on which form of English you use.

The premium account includes more awesome features like a plagiarism checker, suggestions for different phrases, and how to make your writing more concise.

You can see grammar, punctuation, and spelling mistakes in red (all part of the free account) in the picture below. The words highlighted in blue are writing style suggestions (this is a premium account feature).

Grammarly Editing Suggestions for Writing

Grammarly Editing and Writing Style Suggestions

Since I often write for work, whether tutoring, blogging, or writing fiction, GRAMMARLY PREMIUM IS A MUST-HAVE editing tool. If you can afford it, it will replace many other tools you need, plus the more you use it, the less often you’ll make writing errors. 

#2 Hemingway Editor

Hemingway Editor https://hemingwayapp.com / scores the readability of your writing. It shows the grade level a person needs to be at to read your essay. Also, it highlights the things in your writing that you can change to make your writing clearer. 

All writing (even academic writing) should be clear and easy to understand. Just because you’re writing a college paper doesn’t mean only professors, teachers and scholars should be able to read it.  See how Hemingway App works in my post:  “Hemingway Editor: The Secret Online Editing Tool for Powerful Writing.”   

The example below is a part of the first draft of a blog post I wrote.  My readability score is on the right. My text is highlighted in different colors.

Hemingway Editor Tool for Writing

Hemingway Editor Example of a Blog Post Revision

The elements that Hemingway Editor highlights are the things that determine your readability score. On the right side, you can see that each of these things is highlighted in different colors.

  • Blue — adverbs
  • Green— passive voice
  • Purple— phrases with a simpler meeting
  • Yellow (Peach)— sentences that are hard to read
  • Red (Pink) — sentences that are very hard to read

Hemingway App marks these in your writing. Then you can edit your text there. If you like the free online tool you can also buy the desktop app.  I have only used the free online tool, and I find it suits me fine.   Hemingway Editor is a good place to start with revising your writing. But nothing can replace a person when it comes to revision. Don’t rely on Hemingway alone.

#3 Language Tool

While there are several free grammar checker alternatives to Grammarly, I am only adding one here: Language Tool https://languagetool.org/ because it checks texts in 20 languages. Like Grammarly, Language Tool points out grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes. It lets you see any problems with redundant words, and it checks for consistency.

Language Tool is a good choice for any international writer whose native language differs from the language they are writing in because it lets you set the language of your text and your native language (this is labeled mother language). When you do, that Language Tool looks for words that are similar in both languages but mean different things.

You can see in the image below that unlike Grammarly; Language Tool detected my acronyms as misspellings. Language Tool’s reading capability isn’t as advanced as Grammarly’s.

Language Tool Example

Language Tool Example

But its language settings make this free editing tool unique. 

#4 Cliché Finder

Cliché Finder  https://www.clichefinder.net/  looks at your text and finds clichés. Clichés are common expressions that people overuse because they are a quick way to convey a concept or idea to another person. For example, Laughter is the best medicine.

The problem with clichés is when they appear in writing, they make your writing seem amateurish. A better way to write is to describe what you mean. Cliché Finder analyzes pieces of writing up to 10,000 characters(not words) and finds clichés, as well as pointing out alternative word choices. Here is the report for the first 3 paragraphs of my blog post, “ 15 Fabulous Gratitude Writing Prompts.” 

Clliche Finder Results for a Blog Post

Cliché Finder Results for “15 Fabulous Gratitude Writing Prompts.”

#5 Wordcounter

Wordcounter https://wordcounter.net/ examines the words in your paper and reports how frequently you use words. You’ll find out if you repeat certain words too many times in your writing. It helps you determine if you want to change them or remove them.

To use Wordcounter, copy your text and paste it in the text box, and then click go. Wordcounter analyzes your words and generates a report.  

Wordcounter Example of Writing

Wordcounter Example

But, if you’re writing an academic paper with subject-area vocabulary, don’t try to change too many of those words. It’s vocabulary you need to use in your paper. Wordcounter is a good guide for you, but make your own judgments about when to change words.

Typely https://typely.com/ is a free editing tool designed to help you find mistakes with language use like redundant words, oxymorons, hedging words, apologizing, sounding pretensions, reducing jargon, and spelling errors. It also helps you see when something is illogical. However, they state on their website that Typely is not a grammar checker,  “Typely does not do grammar checking because it’s hard and almost impossible to get right. The aim for Typely is to be precise and reliable.” Typely focuses on helping you improve the prose in your text. The image here shows you the results for the same blog post, “15 Fabulous Gratitude Writing Prompts.”

Typely Results for Writing Sample

Typely Results for a Blog Post

Another cool feature of Typely is its general settings. You can select other things you want Typely to check: mixed metaphors, readability, cursing, hyperbole, etc. 

#7 De-Jargonizer

De-Jargonizer http://scienceandpublic.com/ helps academics make their writing easier to read. To use it, you either upload a text file or MS Word document and press start. Or you can copy the text and enter it in the box below. 

De-Jargonizer Example

De-Jargonizer Results

After De–Jargonizer analyzes your text, you’ll see your results in a box on the right side. It measures the percentage of common, mid-frequency, and low-frequency words. If you look at the text, you’ll see the font is color-coded so you can figure out which words you should change. 

  • Black =Common Words
  • Orange= Mid-Frequency
  • Red= Low-Frequency

Also, in the box, you’ll see a score that represents the percentage of people who will understand your text. My blog post scored 95% of 100% meaning most people will comprehend it.  

Online Tools For Reviewing Your References

#8 citation machine.

Citation Machine https://www.citationmachine.net/ is a website where you can type in your source information and get the correct reference style for the American Psychological Association (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA), and Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) formats.

There are two ways to get a source citation; the first is to select one of the buttons: Website, Book, or Journal and paste in the following information:

  • For the website- -type in the keywords or URL
  • For the Book- -type in the book title or ISBN
  • For the Journal- type in the title or Digital Object Identifier (DOI)

The second way is to fill out an online form that requires additional information, such as author, publisher, publication date, and more. The manual citation will give you a more precise reference, so I recommend using it for your research paper. Citation machine lets you copy both in-text citations and a reference list. You can even save your list of sources, and create a reference list.

Here is the APA 7 reference information for one of my blog posts

Citation Machine Blog Post Reference in APA 7

Citation Machine APA 7 Reference Example

The downside to Citation Machine is that you must watch an ad and click on it every 3 or 4 uses. If you want to avoid the ads and check your paper for plagiarism, you can upgrade to a paid account. 

#9 Que Text

Plagiarism is one of the worst academic crimes a person can commit, and it can cost you a failing grade, a failed course, and even expulsion from a university. QueText https://www.quetext.com / analyzes a piece of writing to spot plagiarism. QueText underlines pieces of plagiarized text and shows links to the original content. 

I copied and pasted the draft of a blog post I published in the screenshot below. The underlined words show you what was plagiarized, and on the right side, you can see the source it came from (my website).

Que-Text Free Plagiarism Checker

Que Text Plagiarism Results

While it’s a great resource, I hesitate to put QueText on my list because the free account has a limit on searches, and it’s extremely limited: 5 searches and 2500 words total. However, I decided to include it because the Pro-Basic account is $69 per year, and it checks up to 200 pages per month. If you don’t have access to a plagiarism checker via your school or university, QueText’s Pro Basic account is a bargain for what it does.

Choose Your Favorite Online Editing Tools 

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by these different choices for editing tools, so my advice is to choose 2-3 editing and revision tools. Look for the ones that help you the most, whether revising, grammar checking, or citations.

When I started, the 3 free online editing tools I used were the free account of Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, and Citation Machine.  Grammarly is my favorite, so I upgraded to Grammarly Premium to get more writing style suggestions and plagiarism checks. I eliminated the need for other writing style tools and a plagiarism checker when I did that.  It’s all a matter of choice, what aspects of editing do you need help with the most? Check out these free online editing tools, and find your perfect combination.

Suzanne, your article is highly informative and extremely helpful. I had known about Grammarly and Word Counter before but others are new to me. I am sure that these will turn out to be good for my future blog post writings.

Thank you Nilanjana. I highly recommend using Hemingway Editor for revising a blog post. I never publish a blog post without using Hemingway Editor. Readability is important in blogging, and Hemingway Editor is a great tool to use for making a blog post easier to read.

Such great info. I need Hemingway and grammarly. I’m an ONLINE math tutor and I write all the time.

Thank you. Both Hemingway and Grammarly are helpful with any writing you do.

Wow, these look like amazing tools. I need to use Hemmingway for my own writing. I know you have suggested it several times. I guess I needed to hear about that one 7-10 times before actually trying it out. LOL I love your graphic with the free tools. It makes it easy to try them out.

These are great online tools. These are all valuable for writing research papers, and some of them are really great for writing blog posts too.

This is amazing. Love these tools. I use Hemmingway Editor and Grammarly all the time to write my blog posts. Now I just tried out After the Deadline too. I’m bookmarking this page and sharing it!!

  • Submission Limit There is a limit of 200,000 characters, which is approximately 30,000 words. Anything longer should be submitted in smaller chunks, or it will be automatically trimmed.
  • No document It looks like you forgot to enter your document. Paste it in and try again.
  • Structure This tab shows sentence structure within the context of the document. Hover over a sentence to see its word count. Select a word or phrase, or click a sentence to get more information.
  • Quotes This tab shows your quotations highlighted as Slick Write sees them.

More information »

  • Sentence type flow Pieces with good flow will make use of all four sentence types, varying them to keep the reader interested.
  • Sentence length flow Sentence length is indirectly related to sentence type, and is a good indicator of flow. Flow can be altered by adding, removing, lengthening, shortening, combining, or splitting sentences. Long sentences will be indicated by a red line on the graph. Sentences that flow poorly with their surroundings will be orange, and the source of the problem can often be found in a nearby sentence.
  • Word length flow Word length is a minor contributor to overall flow, but even minor variations are signs of good rhythm.
  • Passive Voice Index This is a measure of how frequently the passive voice is used. Consider revising your document if it scores over 100.
  • Prepositional Phrase Index This is a measure of how frequently prepositional phrases are used. Consider revising your document if it scores over 100.
  • Average sentence length Sentence length is a major contributor to the level of education required to read a body of text.
  • Sentence length standard deviation This is a measure of the amount of variation in the length of a text's sentences. In texts that have broad appeal, this tends to fall between 50 and 90% of the average sentence length. You can increase this number by making long sentences longer, and short ones shorter.
  • Sentence deviation to length ratio This is a measure of the sentence variety, and a major contributor to flow. Most novels score between 0.5 and 0.9, and popular ones often score near the high end of the range. You can increase this number by making long sentences longer, and short ones shorter.
  • Just the stats preset Use this preset when you're only interested in the stats tab. Critique and Flow will be hidden.
  • Honesty preset This preset checks for common indicators of deception, either by lying or omission, and is based on the findings of this study . Areas with high concentrations of these indicators should be viewed with skepticism. Note that the presence or absence of these indicators does not guarantee that a statement is true or false, and that the study was done on spoken communications, so it might be more applicable to interviews and speeches. As always, use your brain.
  • Doubled words A word used twice in a row may be a typo.
  • Commonly confused words This will check for the internet's most frequently confused words and notify you if it looks like you misused one. It is experimental and probably the least reliable feature. Consult a dictionary when necessary.
  • Sentences starting with the same word A word should not be used to start more than one sentence in a single paragraph.
  • Misplaced conjunctions It is considered poor style to place coordinating conjunctions at either end of a sentence. Placing a subordinating conjunction at the end of a sentence is against the rules.

It is said that one day, passive voice will bring weakness to your prose.

More information » Even more information »

  • Overwriting Words like "very" and "really" make sentences wordier and weaken your message. These can be deleted in almost all cases without affecting the meaning of the sentence.
  • Abstract words Abstract words lack specificity and overusing them can make even simple concepts difficult to understand. There are times when abstract words are desirable or even necessary; it would be difficult to write about math or programming without mentioning variables or functions, but you should use more specific terms whenever possible.
  • Wordy and redundant phrases These phrases make your writing more difficult to understand. In most cases, they can be replaced with one or two words, or even deleted.
  • Legalese These antiquated, arcane words and phrases will make your writing look like a contract.
  • Double negatives Double negatives are almost always poor style.
  • Adverbs They aren't bad in small quantities, but consider revising your document if more than 5.5% of its words are adverbs. Adverbs ending in "-ly" are considered the worst offenders.
  • Adjectives They aren't bad in small quantities. A few of the words on this list can also function as other parts of speech. You have been warned.
  • Contractions In formal writing, the use of contractions is considered a fault.

The boxer decked his opponent.

  • Profanity Profanity should not be used in formal writing outside of direct quotations.

The critic's scathing review hit the nail on the head .

  • Similes Similes and metaphors should be used sparingly. This option will detect most common types of similes.
  • "Said" replacements Some people think that these substitutes for "said" are weak or obnoxious, especially if overused.

Her dress was long , and it touched the floor.

Her long dress touched the floor.

  • Gender-specific pronouns Avoid using gender-specific pronouns in formal writing when the subject's gender is unknown.
  • Weasel words Like abstract words, weasel words and phrases lack specificity. At best, they convey uncertainty. At worst, they can be used to "weasel out" of telling the truth in a straightforward manner. When checking a document that is speculative by nature, you might want to disable this detector.
  • Third person pronouns According to this study , high concentrations of third person pronouns may indicate deception.
  • Bias language These words and phrases often show the author's bias.
  • Uncommon words Uncommon words will increase the document's reading difficulty.

Hot peppers burn my mouth, but I eat them anyway .

Since burritos taste good , I like to eat them.

  • Sentence fragments A sentence must have at least one noun and one verb. Anything that does not is a fragment, and if it occurs outside of dialog, it should probably be rewritten.
  • Long sentences Long sentences tend to be more difficult to read, making them good candidates for trimming or splitting. Alternatively, parallelism may be used to improve their readability, though this will not decrease the ARI score.
