The funding follows Grammarly’s acquisition of productivity platform Coda in January 2025, further strengthening its position as an AI productivity platform serving individuals and enterprises alike. With over 40 million daily users and more than $700 million in annual revenue, Grammarly continues to expand its AI-assisted tools across 500,000 applications and websites.
