Poli · Lyon, France
What it is
Poli is a grammar correction and translation assistant offered as a browser extension and macOS app. It explains each correction by naming the rule and why the original wording was wrong. Translation covers more than 20 languages and explains phrasing choices and idiomatic nuances. A history of earlier corrections and translations helps users review recurring weak spots. The Chrome extension works on Gmail, Slack, Google Docs, LinkedIn, and other websites. Configurable shortcuts trigger correction and translation, listed as ⌥⇧C and ⌥⇧T. Poli says its AI is powered by Anthropic’s Claude. It says text is encrypted in transit, processed by AI, immediately deleted, and never stored as content. The free plan includes 10 corrections, 10 translations, four languages, and seven-day history. Starter and Pro have no listed prices; Pro adds unlimited history, custom shortcuts, and custom tone and style.
