The record

Purpose: An Gramadóir is an open source grammar checking engine, currently implemented for Irish.
Language development: The project is intended as a platform for developing natural language processing tools for languages with limited computational resources.
Checker components: Its Perl module provides separate interfaces for sentence segmentation, spell checking, part-of-speech tagging, and grammar checking.
Command line: The command-line interface reads text from standard input and writes errors to standard output.
Web interface: The Irish grammar checker can be tried through a web interface.
Platforms: The project says it has been tested on Linux, BSD, Sun Solaris, DEC alpha, Mac OS X, and Windows.
Editor integrations: The site describes interfaces for Emacs and Vim, and an OpenOffice macro that no longer works with the latest OpenOffice versions.
LibreOffice integration: The site says An Gramadóir can be used within LibreOffice through an extension released in 2014.
API: The web API accepts HTTP POST requests with Irish text and returns a JSON array of grammatical errors.
API use: The API page says the service powers the Gramadóir web interface, An Scéalaí, and command-line clients.
API limits: Individual API requests are capped at 16k bytes, and the page says no rate limits are currently applied.
API access: The API documentation asks new developers to request a unique client identifier and says requests without an approved identifier may eventually be blocked.
License: The engine is released under the GNU General Public License, which the site says permits copying, modifying, or selling it if redistributed versions preserve those freedoms.
Intended audience: The download page describes installation for users who want the Irish checker and a developers' pack for developers creating language packs.
Price from: Free
