Still Mr. Franken said the whole experience had been disconcerting. “It’s a weird thing: people are always asking me and Franni, ‘Are you okay?’ ” he said, referring to his wife. “As sort of life crises go, this is low on the totem poll. But it is weird, it’s a strange thing.” Neither can the spell checker in your browser. Why? Because most spell checkers do not look at context. After the Deadline does.

Besides misused word detection (and contextual spell checking), After the Deadline checks grammar and style as well.
