Claude Different focus
Anthropic's AI writing assistant

Grammarly fixes your writing; Claude does the writing for you. Jason says the first is acceptable, the second is not.

"I like Grammarly. Grammarly is helpful. But people use these tools as supplements. That's what I think they're supposed to be."

Used as a positive example compared to people who fully outsource writing to Claude or other AI tools

This Week in Startups

"You could use Grammarly to fix your writing. We wouldn't disclose every other tool that we use, but those other tools aren't doing the writing for you — they're fixing or adapting your writing."

Contrasted with Claude/GPT — Grammarly assists the writer while AI models replace the writer entirely

JC
Jason Calacanis

"Now, if you use Grammarly to correct my grammar, okay, right?"

Cited as acceptable AI assistance vs. fully AI-generated content (Claude-written deal memos) which is not acceptable
