Step 2
Free 15-min review
We sample a section, flag priority issues, and confirm scope before you pay.
Step 3
Tracked delivery
Receive a Track Changes file plus optional margin notes on recurring patterns so you learn as you revise.

Global angles
United Kingdom
UK students often need viva-ready clarity, British spelling, and chapter polish under tight submission windows. We work around dissertation and PhD thesis conventions used across Russell Group and post-92 universities.

Australian HDR editing should follow IPEd-aligned boundaries: copyediting and proofreading that improve expression without rewriting substantive content. We help you prepare acknowledgement-ready editorial support and Australian/British spelling consistency.

Frequently asked
Is professional editing allowed at UK/AU universities?
Most universities allow proofreading/copyediting with disclosure. Australian HDR students should follow IPEd Guidelines for Editing Research Theses and acknowledge the editor. Always check your handbook and tell your supervisor.
Will you rewrite my dissertation for me?
No. We refine language and clarity around your own work. You remain the author and must be able to defend every claim.
What turnaround should I expect?
Typical windows are 24–48 hours for chapters after scope is agreed. Full theses need staged chapter delivery — we’ll quote honestly against your deadline.
