editGPT is a browser extension that turns ChatGPT into a proper editing desk: it adds track changes to AI proofreading, so every suggested fix appears as a reviewable edit you can accept, reject, or refine.
Asking a chatbot to “proofread this” normally returns a clean block of text and leaves you guessing what changed. editGPT closes that gap. Inside the ChatGPT interface it highlights insertions and deletions inline, just like Word’s track changes, and lets you step through edits one by one. Built-in prompts range from “only fix grammar” to a full prose rewrite, and you can save custom prompts for recurring jobs ā an academic pass, a tone adjustment, a house style.
The extension is free to install, and the Free plan covers 10,000 words per month with up to about 600 words per request. Pro costs $10/month and raises the allowance to 200,000 words per month, with custom prompts and Word import/export. Elite costs $25/month for high-volume and batch editing.
The extension is available for Chrome and Firefox and works wherever you use the ChatGPT web interface, so there is no new editor to learn and no document migration. Edits are iterative: run a light grammar pass, review the tracked changes, then run a clarity pass on what remains. Writers also use saved custom prompts for repeatable house styles and academic formatting conventions such as APA, MLA, and Chicago, keeping long manuscripts consistent across chapters.
editGPT is ideal for academics, researchers, and long-form writers who already use ChatGPT and want careful, auditable edits on papers and manuscripts rather than one-shot rewrites they cannot inspect.
