Writefull is a great tool that is tightly integrated with Overleaf. Additionally its recommendations are spot on. Looking forward to its integration with an Gen AI agent.

Would not recommend this. The paraphrasing has severe limitations. When accepting suggestions, it sometimes alter the text somewhere else completely, destroying other paragraphs. The suggestions are often bad, as it struggles to understand the context of your text. It suggests correction in you overleaf commands, which will fill your whole text with red lines when you write a scientific text. The best feature this tool offers is the concise rewriting.
