Grammarly Authorship (New Features)

Grammarly Authorship is a new set of features that allows you to demonstrate your sources of text within a Google doc. Specifically, Grammarly Authorship recognizes and categorizes text entered into a Google doc to differentiate between text that was typed into the document, or copied and pasted from a browser-based or unknown source. It also determines if the text was AI-generated, or edited using Grammarly generative AI and non-generative AI features.

For more information on Grammarly Authorship and its features/capabilities, please visit the Introducing Grammarly Authorship Grammarly guide.
