An editor service receives a textual input. The editor service provides the textual input to a rule-based grammar checker to obtain a grammar checker result. The editor service also provides the textual input to a machine learning (ML) fluency model that checks the textual input for errors and provides a ML model result. The editor service aggregates the grammar checker result and the ML model result and generates an editor service output based upon the aggregated results. A representation of the editor service result is provided to the client computing system for surfacing through a user interface.

A method and system for providing replacement text segments for a given text segment may include receiving a request to provide the replacement text segment for the text segment in the document, examining a content characteristic of the document, and examining at least one of user-specific information, organization-specific information, or non-linguistic features of the document, before identifying at least one replacement text segment for the text segment, via a machine translation system, based on the content characteristic of the document and at least one of the user-specific information, the organization-specific information, or the non-linguistic features of the document. The method and system may include providing the identified replacement text segment for display to a user, receiving an input indicating a user's selection of the identified replacement text segment, and upon receiving the input, replacing the text segment in the document with the identified replacement text segment.

A method for providing targeted rewrites can include receiving a selection of text in a file; generating a set of target rewrites of the selection of text, the set of target rewrites comprising: at least one phrase or sentence having semantic similarity to a phrase or sentence of the selection of text; and a style that corresponds to a particular target style, wherein a target style is a representative style for a genre, profession, or environment; and providing for selection one or more of the target rewrites of the set of target rewrites.
