AI-Powered Writing Assistance
YouTrack provides a built-in AI-powered writing assistant. This writing assistant can improve the clarity and quality of your writing by detecting spelling and grammar mistakes and suggesting ways to rephrase your text.
The writing assistant is powered by JetBrains Grazie. Grazie is a platform for interacting with generative AI, machine learning, and other advanced productivity tools.

Accept and Reject Suggestions
The Grazie writing assistant scans your text as you type. Spelling errors and other problems with grammar or style are underlined. Hover your pointer over the underlined word to see possible fixes for the problem.
Select a suggestion to update the underlined text.
To ignore the suggestion, select Dismiss for now.
Dismissed suggestions are ignored until you reload the page.
A counter in the lower-right corner of the input field indicates how many suggestions are available for the current block of text. Click the counter to open the list and review each suggestion.
The Apply all corrections with single suggestions option does exactly that. When you click this option, single suggestions are applied to underlined text, leaving only problems where there are multiple possible solutions.
Click the icon to ignore a suggestion.
Click the Deactivate link to switch off the writing assistant and close the list of suggestions.
Toggle Writing Assistance On and Off
YouTrack's built-in writing assistant is always there whenever you need it, but can be easily switched off when you don't. The option to toggle the writing assistant is available from the AI Assistant menu in the text formatting toolbar.
The popup window for reviewing bulk suggestions also contains a link that lets you deactivate the writing assistant. Once switched off, you can only reactivate the writing assistant from the AI Assistant menu.
