Additional services

Clarity Check

If you select the Clarity Check, you’ll receive feedback on the clarity of your ideas and arguments.

You’ve probably read your text over and over again. A fresh pair of eyes will ensure your paper is clear and free of contradictions.

The result is a clear and logical story.

very happy

I‘m very happy about the help one of the team gave me. It really helped me to correct my work and made it for sure so much easier. I liked also that if something was completely deleted, the person wrote me a comment to explain why it was deleted. I can for sure recommend this:)

Plagarism detactor addition info

Okay, It gave me history.com which I cited, Bagong-filipino.blogspot.com is a crusader war website but I'm writing something about WWII, and essayzilla.org which is writing you an essay and I can see why you would do this as you can't take any chance. Overall, it is good and I would recommend but it can take some time.

Extremely professional and timely

Extremely professional and timely! Regis did an amazing job bringing my admission essay to life. It went from overly wordy and unclear to very professional and concise. If I don't get into my desired program, it won't be because of my essay.

What an amazing site and team

What an amazing site and team. I am so incredibly impressed. My son is applying to colleges and wanted help and feedback with his essay. He asked me to upload it to Scribbr. Somehow I messed up and put it under the wrong heading but received an email within minutes to tell me they picked up on it and asking me if I wanted to change. Eden immediately helped me make the change and followed up with me to make sure I am satisfied. With a team as adept and on the ball as this, I am confident the editing and coaching my son receives will be helpful. Additionally, I think it's an incredible value. When my son asked about it I was worried it would be ridiculously expensive. On the contrary, the price was more than reasonable for the work. Fantastic all around. UPDATE: Absolutely thrilled with the editing and coaching received. My son's essay is far better as a result and I think he learned a bit about how to improve his writing overall. Thank you Scribbr team. I'm a grateful mama. You took a huge weight off my son's shoulders with your help.

What types of editing does Scribbr offer?

Every Scribbr order comes with our award-winning Proofreading & Editing service, which combines two important stages of the revision process.

For a more comprehensive edit, you can add a Structure Check or Clarity Check to your order. With these building blocks, you can customize the kind of feedback you receive.

You might be familiar with a different set of editing terms. To help you understand what you can expect at Scribbr, we created this table:

Types of editing Available at Scribbr?
Proofreading
Correction of superficial mistakes, such as typos, misspellings, punctuation errors and consistency errors.
Yes!
This is the “proofreading” in Scribbr’s standard service. It can only be selected in combination with editing.
Copy editing
Focus on grammar, syntax, style, tone and the conventions of the field. The editor also considers the internal logic of the text and flags any obvious contradictions.
Yes!
This is the “editing” in Scribbr’s standard service. It can only be selected in combination with proofreading.
Line editing
Focus on language, style, concision and choices. The editor helps you strengthen your story, polish your sentences and ensure that your use of language drives home your ideas.
Yes!
Select the Structure Check and Clarity Check to receive a comprehensive edit equivalent to a line edit.
Developmental editing (i.e. content editing, substantive editing)
This is the first step of the editing process and applies to very early drafts. The editor helps you structure your ideas, decide what story to tell and find direction for your writing.
No.
This kind of editing involves heavy rewriting and restructuring. Our editors cannot help with this.
