I can see something like Grammarly being quite helpful to a non-native speaker, but if English is your native language, do you still find that Grammarly improves your writing?

I’ve found that it does. It’s easy to forget some of the more nuanced grammar rules, or if you’re spending more time building a sentence it can be easy to lose track of things like maintaining prior tenses.
It probably fulfills a slightly different use case than non-native speakers.

Although I'm technically not a native speaker, I consider myself completely fluent, and a competent writer. I still find Grammarly or similar services quite useful, even if just to catch stupid "grammatical typos" that a traditional spellchecker would miss. I basically treat it like autocorrect.
