AP StyleGuard features include:

— Your documents are checked automatically in Microsoft Word or Outlook as you type.
— Each proposed correction is clearly highlighted in the document and shows you the corresponding AP Stylebook rule, so you always know why something was corrected.
— Easy-to-understand features are similar to other proofing tools, including Ignore All, Change, Change All and Add Comment.
— Users can easily install multiple style guides from Equiom, with the ability to turn on/off specific guides and search for specific rules.
— Additional calculators, tables and real-time data links, such as web references, help make your writing faster and more accurate.

AP Lingofy features include:

— Flag spelling, usage and AP style errors and accept, reject or alter Lingofy’s suggested fixes.
— Checks content in phrases, not individual words, which allows Lingofy to know it should change “Bombay” to “Mumbai,” but leave “Bombay gin” alone.
— Create, edit, share and import custom style entries to manage regional terms (“firefly” or “lightning bug”), local proper nouns (“E.P. ‘Tom’ Sawyer State Park”) or common typos and frequent misspellings (“mispellings”).
— Set certain words or phrases as warnings to remind writers and editors to double-check context, avoid cliches or vulgarities, or spike them outside of direct quotes: “pubic” is appropriate in medical copy but probably not in a story about local government.
— Multiple workflow options that allow you to share custom entries with other Lingofy users, setting permissions and proofing guidelines to match your needs.
— Built-in Check Text feature for testing new entries or proofing copy written offline.
— Proofing statistics: Track which words are flagged most, past proofing sessions and more.
