I haven’t seen the news anywhere on ProZ (unless I’m mistaken) so I’m putting it here.

If you have a Microsoft 365 subscription, you can now add Microsoft Editor as a Chrome extension (PC only at the moment, no Mac).
This will be useful especially for those working online a lot (mails etc.) and even more so for those using online CAT tools (Smartcat, Wordfast Anywhere, MemoQ online etc.).

Microsoft Editor Chrome extension does spell and grammar checking along with style checking. There are a ton of buttons to fine tune how you want it to work, it remembers what to ignore (can’t import your dictionaries at the moment).
It’s AI-based and you can opt-out of data collection.

It’s early days, so some sites interact with it better than others, but that should improve fast.
For those interested I created a video on the topic on my YouTube channel FI2Pro in EN, ES and FR.
