Grammarly, the cloud-based writing assistant, is eliminating approximately 230 jobs as it restructures its business.

What’s going on at Grammarly?

CEO Rahul Roy-Chowdhury told staff in a recent memo that the restructuring will help the company “strengthen our focus toward driving the AI-enabled workplace and deepen our technical investments in AI.”

“This is not a cost-cutting exercise. Grammarly’s financial position is, and remains, strong.”

Roy-Chowdhury added that the job cuts will affect most functions and geographies.

The company claims on its website that it employs a total workforce of more than 1,000 people.
