RedPen is an open source proofreading tool to check if your technical documents meet the writing standard. RedPen supports various markup text formats (Markdown, Textile, AsciiDoc, Re:VIEW, reStructuredText and LaTeX). http://redpen.cc

Grammark helps improve writing style & grammar and teaches students to self-edit. Basically, it finds things that grammarians consider bad, highlights them, and suggests improvements. So writers can measure progress, it gives a "score" based on problems per document length, updated whenever the writer fixes a problem.

Since not all writing forms are equal, users can customize each element that Grammark checks. It works best for college-level essays. It doesn't improve content. And it's not much use for creative writing, since literature often breaks rules for aesthetic effect.
There are many more rules of grammar thumb: prepositions at the ends of phrases should be dealt with, to usually avoid split infinitives, and following parallel structure. But many of these have exceptions, and I felt including checks for them would make the tool less efficient and consequently less useful.
The grammark database has 7,060 grammar rules currently, not including algorithms for identifying passive voice and analyzing sentences.
