Keeping you in the loop: Authorship in Grammarly docs

News from Coda
1

We know most of you are living in Coda day-to-day, but as the broader Superhuman + Grammarly ecosystem continues to take shape, we want to make sure you’re looped in on what’s happening on the Grammarly side, too.

One of the more interesting recent launches is Authorship in Grammarly Docs, which tackles a genuinely tricky problem: how do you understand how something was created when AI is part of the writing process?

It’s most visible in education right now, but the core idea — bringing visibility and trust to AI-assisted work — applies just as much to teams, client deliverables, and any collaborative environment where it matters who wrote what.

Authorship creates a shareable, verifiable record of the writing process, from first draft to final.

It automatically tracks:

  • What was typed

  • What came from AI

  • What was revised or rephrased

  • Which agents were used

The author maintains control over what they share. The goal is less guesswork, fewer false assumptions, and more transparency around how work actually gets done.

It’s already being used by 5M+ students across Google Docs and Microsoft Word, and is now available directly in Grammarly Docs.

If you’re curious to go a layer deeper, Product Manager Jennifer van Dam walks through how it works (and what it unlocks) in the latest episode of Super Shipped.

Would love to hear how this lands for y’all, whether it’s something you’d use today or just an interesting direction to watch.

Thanks for sharing! Isn’t Grammarly Docs an obvious thing to be merged with Coda pages? Shishir uses to say that Grammarly is AI available right from where you work… Well, Coda is your workspace product, so I guess that an adequate expectation is that your users are mostly working from there… Or are we expected to be moving back and forth between Coda and Grammarly Docs to produce text?

Increasingly, I no longer work from Coda. Instead, I have gradually migrated to a new workspace where agents dominate my touchpoints. Coda is in that mix, but I rarely actually work in the Coda UI. Perhaps 80% of my use of Coda I never see or interact. Agents using MCP typically handle all my writing, formatting, linking, and other simple tasks.

@Bill_French which tool do you use to manage your agents?

I haven’t found one that completely fits my needs, but I either use Antigravity or just work straight from the terminal. Session management is my biggest pain point. I’m always looking for recommendations.

This is a big update and we’d love to see this in Coda too. We use Coda for our company handbook and documentation of all business processes; having an audit trail of who wrote which processes, who made edits, etc. would solve several long-standing problems for our company. Having this same auditing trail for contracts, legal docs, etc. to know who’s been involved in making certain decisions about agreements would also be highly valuable to us.
