    The browser addon is not anymore, and they were kind of hostile responding to questions regarding that.

    The server software’s open source version also only supports the free tier’s features. There was a fork that was supposed to add the paid features, but it’s not maintained.

    Worth what? It’s free! And yes, it’s open source. It can also be self-hosted if you’re paranoid.

    I self-host it in a docker container. You will have to download abour 4 gigabytes of “n-gram” data. And there are no AI features in the self-hosted version.

        Here’s my podman-compose.yml file (you can use this as you docker-compose file as well):

        version: "3"

services:
  languagetool:
    image: erikvl87/languagetool:latest
    container_name: languagetool
    ports:
        - 8010:8010  # Using default port from the image
    environment:
        - langtool_languageModel=/ngrams  # OPTIONAL: Using ngrams data
        - Java_Xms=512m  # OPTIONAL: Setting a minimal Java heap size of 512 mib
        - Java_Xmx=1g  # OPTIONAL: Setting a maximum Java heap size of 1 Gib
    volumes:
        - path/to/ngrams:/ngrams
    restart: always

        Just download the ngrams from this link and change the path in the file. You can use this with a Firefox or Thunderbird addon. Go to the advanced settings in the addon preferences and add http(s)://YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN/v2 in the other server option.
