About ProWritingAid
ProWritingAid is a web-based grammar checking, manuscript editing, and personal writing solution designed to help fiction and non-fiction writers, bloggers, students, and content writers improve style, eliminate errors, visualize sentence variations, and more within written content. It allows users to analyze different writing styles and generate reports based on metrics such as grammar, overused words, readability, clichés or redundancies, sentence length, pronoun usage, and more.
ProWritingAid's Word Explorer module allows writers to identify the right words and enhance write-ups by browsing through the built-in dictionary or thesaurus, examples of usage from poetry or songs, contextually related words, alliterations, and more. The platform provides detailed explanations on suggested changes, aiding writers in increasing their overall knowledge about language rules. Plus, it comes with an editing tool that enables users to visualize sentence lengths across the document and identify areas for improvement.
ProWritingAid can be utilized online within web browsers including Google Chrome and Safari, as well as downloaded as a desktop app. It provides an application programming interface, which allows users to modify the system and integrate it with third-party solutions such as Microsoft Word and Google Docs.

I'm using this tool mostly when I'm writing posts for my personal blog. It helps me to do all kinds of analysis over my text and make it better. Although, it is good for every day usage, when it highlights common errors in real-time.
Pros
It has a simple to use widget that can highlight your grammatic errors in real time. Though, when you want to open a detailed view, you can do that by tapping on the widget and it will open a full-featured editor with a lot of data about your writing.
Cons
Sometimes, the widget does not work for some of the text editors on websites. Hell, it even didn't work on the website where I'm writing the review now.

Sharing my two cents about ProWritingAid that I purchased a lifetime licence for: If you're reviewing texts about 300 - 400 words in length at maximum, you'll be happy with the tool. Otherwise, it's not worth the money.
If you need a short-term solution, then by all means go for it but don't pay a buck for actually using the SW. I've been using the Word add-on for over three months now and if you want to use most of the tools on more than 800 words, the tool simply can't handle the 'load.' Usually, it breaks off after a minute or so and you can run the check again which normally doesn't help. You end up wasting a ton of your time and accomplish nothing at all.
While the language advice and the correction improvements you get recommended are helpful, you're better off using Grammarly or another alternative if you're reviewing long chunks of text in one go and don't want to constantly copy-paste from Word to their interface and back which is a pain if you have to do that daily like myself.
Pros
Totally intuitive. If you know anything about how English, grammar and vocabulary alike, finding your way through the options and how they work will be a breeze.
No learning curve. The tool as well as the report are perfectly self-explanatory.
Easy-to-use online interface.
Cons
Useless add-on when dealing with texts of 800+ words.
Constant copy-pasting to and from the online interface wasting your time.
