The bottom line

Good for corrections; budget for Pro if you need rewrites, replies or the browser extension.

Correcto covers spelling, grammar, agreement and style, with word definitions, synonyms and pronunciation, plus tone rewrites and drafted replies. The free plan allows 20 AI corrections a day and 5,000 characters per text, but excludes Improve writing & tones, Reply and the browser extension. That makes the free tier a limited way to assess the features that distinguish it from a basic correction tool.

According to the pricing information checked November 6, 2026, Pro costs $5.99 per month when billed annually and caps usage at 2,000 corrections, 400 improvements or tone changes, and 200 replies a month; monthly billing prices are not published. MAX is $11.99 per month billed annually, with higher caps and 20 documents listed as coming soon. The Reddit threads we read don’t include relevant Correcto feedback, so there’s no product-specific user sentiment to weigh in its favor.

01What Correcto actually does

Correcto is a writing assistant for fixing errors and revising text. It checks spelling, misused words, agreement, grammar and style, with the stated aim of keeping your writing style intact. That makes its core job narrower than a general-purpose writing tool: clean up what you wrote rather than supply a new argument or missing information.

It also handles two kinds of rewriting. You can ask it to change a text’s tone while keeping its meaning, or draft a message reply in a selected tone. For replies, Correcto is designed to leave gaps where details are missing instead of inventing them. It offers word definitions, synonyms and pronunciation details when you click a word.

The practical split is clear: basic correction is available on the free plan, while tone changes, reply drafting and the browser extension require Pro or MAX. Documents are listed for MAX, but marked “Soon.”

02Where Correcto is strong

Correcto’s clearest strength is the distinction between correcting and rewriting. Its original-editing feature is meant to fix mistakes without changing your style; tone rewrites are meant to preserve meaning, and reply drafts leave gaps for details the tool does not have. That is a useful boundary for marketers who want cleaner copy without letting an assistant fill in facts.

The pricing page lists a free plan with 20 AI corrections a day and a 5,000-character limit per text. That gives occasional users a way to check short passages without paying. For regular use, Pro is listed at $5.99 per month equivalent, billed annually. It includes 2,000 corrections, 400 Improve writing & tones actions and 200 replies per month, with a 25,000-character limit per text and a browser extension.

MAX costs $11.99 per month equivalent, also billed annually. Its monthly allowances rise to 4,000 corrections, 1,200 Improve writing & tones actions and 400 replies. Those separate quotas make the upgrade choice easier to assess: pay more for higher rewrite and reply volume, not an unspecified “unlimited” tier.

03Where it falls short

The free plan is a sampler, not a full substitute for Pro. It allows 20 AI corrections a day and 5,000 characters per text, but excludes Improve writing & tones, Reply, the browser extension and Documents. If rewrites or drafted replies are the reason you’re considering Correcto, the free tier won’t cover that workflow.

Pro and MAX both cap text at 25,000 characters. Their monthly allowances are also split by task: corrections, tone improvements and replies each have separate limits, so heavy use of one feature can hit its cap even if you have room in another. The pricing information gives annual-billing equivalents only; monthly billing prices are not published. We can’t compare the cost of paying month to month from the listed figures.

There are also features not to count on yet. Voice dictation is marked “Soon” on Free and Pro, and MAX Documents—20 documents, up to 30 pages—is marked “Soon” as well. The pricing page does not give an availability date for either.

04Correcto pricing: what you'll actually pay

Correcto has a free plan, but it is limited to corrections: 20 AI corrections a day, 5,000 characters per text, and no access to Improve writing & tones, Reply, the browser extension, or Documents. The listed Pro price is $5.99 per month, billed annually. It includes 2,000 corrections, 400 tone or writing improvements, and 200 replies per month, plus the browser extension. MAX is $11.99 per month, billed annually, and raises those monthly caps to 4,000 corrections, 1,200 improvements, and 400 replies. It also lists 20 Documents per month, up to 30 pages; that feature is marked “Soon.” Both paid plans allow 25,000 characters per text. The catch: monthly billing prices are not published, so the annual-equivalent rates are not a promise that you can pay month to month. The pricing information lists no add-ons. If you need rewrites, replies, or the extension, budget for Pro; the free plan won’t cover them.

05Switching to (or from) Correcto

Switching effort depends on what you use Correcto for. If you only need corrections, the listed workflow is simple: paste text for fixes, with a 5,000-character cap on Free and 25,000 on paid plans. Pro adds a browser extension, but the published product and pricing information does not explain how it handles settings or saved data when you leave. It also does not publish data-export options, so check what you can retrieve before moving documents or relying on Correcto for ongoing work. MAX lists Documents as “Soon,” which makes it harder to assess as a document-storage destination. We don’t have Reddit posts or comments in the published sources, so we can’t substantiate a claim about why users leave. The clearest reasons to compare alternatives are the annual-only published prices, capped monthly usage, and the lack of paid features on Free. If you need uncapped AI writing or a known monthly price, Correcto may not fit.

From the threadsWhat users say

The Reddit material does not discuss Correcto the writing assistant: the main thread is about the Portuguese spelling “correcto” versus “correto.” Comments show a divide between people who accept the post-2015 spelling and people who object to the orthographic agreement or still use the older form.

Questions people ask

What is Correcto?

Correcto is a writing assistant for fixing errors, improving text, and changing tone. Its listed features include spelling, grammar, agreement, and style checks, plus word definitions, synonyms, and pronunciations. It can also draft message replies. The available information says it aims to preserve your writing style rather than rewrite everything by default.

Does Correcto preserve my writing style and avoid inventing details?

Correcto’s feature description says its original editing fixes mistakes without changing your style. Tone rewrites are described as keeping the meaning and avoiding made-up details. For drafted replies, the tool is said to leave gaps for missing details rather than fill them in. Those are product claims; the Reddit threads we read do not review the app.

Is there a free Correcto plan, and what are its limits?

Yes. The Free plan is listed at $0 and allows 20 AI corrections per day, with a 5,000-character limit per text. It does not include Improve writing & tones, Reply, the browser extension, or Documents. The plan lists 15 minutes per month of voice dictation, marked “Soon,” so that feature is not presented as currently available.

How much do Correcto Pro and MAX cost?

The listed annual-billing equivalents are $5.99 per month for Pro and $11.99 per month for MAX. Monthly billing prices are not published. Pro includes 2,000 AI corrections, 400 Improve writing & tones uses, and 200 Reply uses per month. MAX lists 4,000, 1,200, and 400 respectively, plus 20 Documents per month, marked “Soon.”

Can Correcto rewrite text or draft replies in a chosen tone?

Yes. Correcto lists tone rewrites that aim to keep the original meaning, as well as message replies drafted in a selected tone. The reply feature is described as leaving gaps where details are missing. Free does not include either feature; Pro and MAX include monthly usage allowances, while the listed plan details do not specify whether unused uses roll over.
