FAQ

What punctuation errors does it detect?

Missing commas, misplaced periods, incorrect apostrophes, semicolon vs. comma confusion, missing quotation marks, run-on sentences, and comma splices. The AI understands context, not just rules.

Can it fix comma splices?

Yes. A comma splice joins two independent clauses with just a comma. The AI detects these and suggests a period, semicolon, or coordinating conjunction — with an explanation of why each fix works.

Does it check apostrophes and possessives?

Yes — it catches "its" vs. "it's", missing possessive apostrophes ("the teams strategy" → "the team's strategy"), and incorrect plural apostrophes ("apple's" when you mean "apples").

Is this different from the Grammar Checker?

Same AI engine, different focus. This page emphasizes punctuation — commas, periods, apostrophes, semicolons. The <a href="/grammar-checker">Grammar Checker</a> page covers the full range of grammar, spelling, and punctuation.

Does it handle quotation marks and semicolons?

Yes. It checks for proper quotation mark pairing, correct placement of commas and periods inside/outside quotes (American vs. British style), and appropriate semicolon usage between independent clauses.

Can it check academic citation punctuation?

It understands common citation formats and checks punctuation around parenthetical citations, block quotes, and reference lists. For generating citations, try our <a href="/citation-generator">Citation Generator</a>.

Does it work with British and American punctuation?

Yes. The AI recognizes both conventions — periods inside quotes (American) vs. outside (British), Oxford comma usage, and date formatting punctuation. It follows whichever style your text uses.

Is my text stored or shared?

No. Text is processed in real-time and discarded immediately. We do not store, log, or share your content.

What is the character limit?

Up to 20,000 characters per check. Free users get 3 checks per day. Paid plans offer unlimited checks with higher character limits.

Can I use it on mobile?

Yes. Fully responsive — works on phones and tablets. Tap any correction to see the punctuation rule explained.

Is there a Chrome extension?

Yes. Our free extension includes Grammar Checker, AI Humanizer, AI Detector, Translator, and Word Counter — right-click any text on any website.

How does this compare to Grammarly?

Both catch punctuation errors. Coda One is free with no signup, includes 100+ tools on one platform, and accepts cryptocurrency. Grammarly requires an account and charges $12/month for premium.

Can it fix run-on sentences?

Yes. Run-on sentences are often punctuation problems — two sentences joined without proper punctuation. The AI suggests adding periods, semicolons, or coordinating conjunctions.

Is it really free?

Yes. 3 free checks per day, no signup required. Upgrade for unlimited daily uses and higher character limits.

Can I pay with cryptocurrency?

Yes. We accept USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, and other cryptocurrencies. Plans start at $9.99/month.
