I've just stumbled across the new Microshift Sword gravel groupset and If it's Shimano compatible could be just what i'm after, I've tried Googling it up my results have been inconclusive, the best I could find was that some Microshift groupsets are Shimano compatible, and they were refering to mtb groupsets.

There is usually someone on here with some knowledge on matters such as this so, would Sword shifters work with Shimano GRX mechs?

From the bikeradar review

Previous Microshift groupsets – such as XLE, XCD and Centos – use the same cable pull ratio as Shimano. However, both Advent X and Sword’s cable pull differs from Shimano’s.
