Why it is different

Weeks of waiting, removed.

Traditional editing means finding an editor, joining a queue, and waiting days for a first pass. The same classes of error can be found the moment you upload.

  • No queue. Scans run on demand, at any hour, including the night before a deadline.
  • Rescans included. Recheck after every edit for 7 days at no extra cost — something hourly editing makes prohibitive.
  • Consistent standards. The hundredth page is checked as carefully as the first.

Cost

A quarter of what a human editor charges.

$0.005 per word — one rate, every manuscript, no tiers to compare and nothing to subscribe to. Not the cheapest tool on the market, and not trying to be: reachable enough for an early-career researcher, priced well enough to be properly supported.

How it works

Upload, scan, review, export.

Step 01

Upload your manuscript

Send a DOCX or PDF with your target style and journal, if you have one. Files are stored privately, never on the public web.

Step 02

Automated scan

The full document is analysed for language, structure, citation, and formatting issues. Every one is listed and explained.

Step 03

Review the findings

Every issue is listed with the reasoning behind it. Accept what helps, dismiss what does not; your meaning stays yours.

Step 04

Export and resubmit

Download the corrected manuscript, keep editing, and rescan as often as you like within your 7-day window.

Step 05

Format for your journal

Apply a citation style or a specific journal’s author guidelines before you submit.

Step 06

Ask a human if needed

Anything the scan cannot settle can be raised with our team, who will look at it directly.

No testimonials yet

We would rather show you nothing than make something up.

This is where researchers' own words will go, once we have them and once they have said we may use them. Until then the space stays empty, because a quote you cannot check is worth less than an honest blank.

In the meantime, the tools cost nothing and need no account to try. Check your reference list against CrossRef, or run a paragraph through the language check, and judge it yourself.
