I am a bit puzzled, since the presentation and the fact that it is promoted by overleaf completely fooled me, but this product is not good at all. I have subscribed for the premium version, and can say that the speed that it reads the overleaf document is atrocious, half of the features don't work properly, it constantly tries to "correct" Latex syntax. Grammarly without premium is a better grammar checker, and the rest of the tools Writefull provides are just not working properly. The one good feature that I used was the "ai prompt generated" parts, like "create two figures side by side centered on the page" and similar, but ChatGPT (free) can do exactly the same. I recommend using a GPT extension (I use Monica) instead of this... It has to be mentioned that after I wrote this review, they reached out and without a question refunded my subscription, so I do think they are trying to create a good product, but right now it is not there at all sadly.
