“It’s really important to show students what AI can be used for—the good, the bad, the ugly—and then let them make decisions on when and how they should use it in their future lives. Grammarly Authorship is a tool that facilitates that process for faculty in a more collaborative way with students.”

Dr. Brian Harfe

Professor and Associate Provost, University of Florida

Build trust through transparency

Authorship tracks how students compose their work, categorizing text as original, copied, or AI-generated. Because Grammarly runs where students write, it surfaces data no other tool can.

Understand every step of the writing process

Not every assignment has the same expectations for AI use. Authorship offers three views of the writing process, so students can demonstrate their work and instructors can see exactly how it was completed.
