Cancelling LanguageTool

How to cancel LanguageTool Premium, and what to use instead

Log in at languagetool.org, open your account settings, click My Account, then Cancel subscription; an automatic email confirms it. Premium stays active until the end of the current billing period and does not renew after that. Within the first 14 days you can ask Support for a refund under its money-back guarantee. If you paid for the browser extension after its 14-day trial ended, the free alternative below keeps working in Slack, Teams, WhatsApp and Gmail with no trial clock.

Before you cancel LanguageTool

  • The subscription stays active until the end of the current billing period and then does not renew. All LanguageTool subscriptions renew automatically, monthly or annually depending on the plan.
  • Within the first 14 days, a 14-day money-back guarantee: request the refund from Support.
  • A cancellation can be reversed only by contacting Support, and only while the plan is still running; once it has ended it cannot be reactivated.
  • An active Premium account cannot be deleted; cancel first.
  • Since 2026 the browser extension is Premium only after a 14-day trial; the free web editor at languagetool.org still works, with limits. Prices on languagetool.org are shown per country, so check the page for yours.

What to use instead, for free

  • 50 AI actions a month, every month, with no trial that runs out and no card. Each Improve, Translate or Explain is one action.
  • 3 tones (Professional, Friendly, Fix Grammar) and 10 free uses of the Pro tones, to try the others on real messages.
  • Write in Portuguese, Spanish or any other language and get natural English back, in one click.
  • Translate and Explain on the messages you receive, in 44 languages.
  • The desktop app for Mac and Windows puts the same button in the Slack, Teams, WhatsApp and Discord apps, on the same free plan.
  • Your message is sent only when you click, never stored and never used to train models.

Common questions

Does LanguageTool refund?

Yes, within the first 14 days, under its money-back guarantee: contact Support. After that the plan runs to the end of the paid period.

Can I undo a LanguageTool cancellation?

Only by contacting Support, and only before the plan ends. Once it has ended, the help center says it is no longer possible to reactivate it.

Will the browser extension still work after I cancel?

Not after the paid period: since 2026 the extension needs Premium once its 14-day trial is over. The free editor on the website keeps working, with limits.

What does BetterSend do that LanguageTool did?

Not the same job: it does not underline as you type. It rewrites the message you point it at, in one of 13 tones, and Grammar fix is one of the 3 free ones. 50 actions a month, no trial, no card.
