They must be desperate

Displaying a full page warning in an app where grammarly is just an integration is... not a good look.

This is extreme short sightedness.

We have no proof but it feels like someone asked Claude how to reduce churn and picked an option.

I guess consumers are going to have to “push back” often in the near future.

That is ... bold.

I'm more surprised that anyone was still using grammarly in the first place.

I never liked grammarly. It feels like spam.

ngl respect the hustle ig. Maybe there's some dude in the company that uses grammarly everyday that leadership could otherwise care less about..

But why are we giving sys admins grammarly lmao

It's in the sysadmin sub because we are routinely the people told buy and manage Grammarly deployments, and we're the people generally cancelling those services now given everyone is being pushed to use their flavor of AI instead. And those emails from users upset that we're doing what management told us to do (following this Grammarly advice)? They go from end users to sysadmins.

Doesn't look that unhinged to me.

An in-app notification saying 'your access ends on X date and here is who you should contact if that isn't what you want' is exactly what I'd expect.

They also send an email with a template to send to the IT department
