As you can see above this document has a score of 90 but there is still room for improvement. Clicking on any of the categories (Spelling, Grammar, Conciseness, and Insights) will move you to the identified area of the document where an issue is found allowing you to more easily correct it. While spelling and grammar corrections are fairly straightforward, conciseness and document stats can help with items such as passive voice and run-on sentences.
