What your correction looks like
You get your text back as a Word file with visible tracked changes. Your original is on the left, the same passage after editing on the right. With editing, the editor's comments appear in the right margin, just as in Word. The switch only changes the right-hand side.

Proofreading corrects spelling, grammar and punctuation. Style and word choice stay untouched, so there are no comments in the margin.
Editing includes proofreading and also improves sentence structure, style and academic language. The red thread check is always included: the editor checks whether structure and argument hold up from start to finish.
Red and struck through means removed, green and underlined means inserted. With editing, yellow passages connect the text to the comments in the right margin.
The example sentences are invented. We never show real customer texts, for reasons of confidentiality.

What does proofreading check?
From essays to dissertations, our editors correct every formal error with great care. For German texts we follow the current Duden rules (Duden is the standard reference for German spelling), for English texts the British or American conventions you choose. Your content stays as it is.
All spelling mistakes, capitalisation and decisions on one word or two are corrected according to the current rules of your language.
Grammatical errors, problems with agreement and faulty sentence constructions are identified and fixed. We proofread essays, bachelor and master theses alike.
Commas, semicolons, colons and all other punctuation marks are set according to the current rules. German comma rules are strict, so this is where many international students gain the most.
All corrections appear as Word tracked changes: you see every edit and can accept or reject it individually.
Affordable proofreading for academic work
From essays to dissertations, our trained subject editors correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. Professional proofreading has one clear goal: error-free text that shows your examiners you have worked carefully.
Many students spend a lot of time on research, reading specialist literature and writing long texts. At the end there is often little time left to check your own text thoroughly. Small mistakes in spelling, grammar or punctuation creep in easily, and after many hours of work you often no longer see them yourself.
Studies have found that most people make spelling mistakes when they write. Further studies suggest that, depending on the subject, up to 40 % of published academic theses contain spelling errors. corrected.eu helps you stay out of that group.
It can be disappointing to find typos in your own work shortly after you have handed it in. Our proofreading adds the final polish: fast, reliable and at fair prices.

Top value for money
“I booked a 48-hour express editing job. On Saturday, after only 18 hours, the corrected work came back. It was corrected in great detail and the document was full of markings. Not only the mistakes I had missed were marked, but also new suggestions on sentence structure and style. After going through the suggested changes more closely, I accepted almost all of them.”
A great experience
“It really was a great experience and absolutely worth the money. I ordered on Tuesday evening at 9 pm and received the corrected work with feedback on Saturday at 3 pm. The corrections and comments were very coherent, and above all word repetitions, grammar and phrasing could be improved. I can only recommend it.”
Very satisfied with the editing
“I ordered editing for my term paper. I accepted all changes in the edited version and am very satisfied with the result.”
Frequently asked questions
What is proofreading?
Proofreading covers the correction of spelling, grammar and punctuation. Unlike editing, it does not change your style: it concentrates on purely formal errors. It is ideal when your work is finished in terms of content and you only need the final formal polish.
What does proofreading cost?
Standard proofreading costs €1.90 per standard page with a delivery time of 5 days. Express is available for €2.90 (48 h) or €4.90 (24 h). A standard page is 1,800 characters including spaces. You can work out the exact price with our page calculator or the price calculator. The minimum order value is €19.
What is the difference between proofreading and editing?
Proofreading corrects formal errors: spelling, grammar, punctuation. Editing goes further: it also improves sentence structure, style, expression and readability, and includes the red thread check. With editing, proofreading is always included.
Which file formats are accepted?
For proofreading and editing you upload a PDF or DOCX file of up to 100 MB. If you wrote your work in LaTeX, export it first as a compiled PDF. With DOCX you receive your corrected document with all corrections as tracked changes. PDF files carry a surcharge of €1.50 per standard page, because they have to be converted to Word first.
Proofreading and editing: more services
Master thesis proofreading: professional, fast and without registration. Bachelor thesis proofreading: we check spelling, grammar and style of your thesis. Our essay proofreading is just as quick. Express proofreading delivers a professionally revised document within hours. Master thesis editing and dissertation proofreading add linguistic precision and a consistent line of argument. Everything works online, around the clock, and the result arrives by email.
Where do you work?
Our proofreading service is entirely online: you never need to send a file by post. We look after students and authors from Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as from the rest of the world. Whether you study in Germany or write in English elsewhere, you upload your file and receive it back by email.
How long does proofreading take?
The standard delivery time is 5 calendar days. Weekends and public holidays count. Express is available in 48 hours or 24 hours. The deadline starts with your order, or with your payment instruction if you pay in advance.
Can I order express proofreading?
Yes, express proofreading is possible. 48-hour express costs €2.90 per standard page, 24-hour express €4.90. Delivery is guaranteed, including nights, weekends and public holidays. See express proofreading.
Will the editors change my content?
No. Proofreading corrects formal errors only: spelling, grammar, punctuation. Statements, arguments and conclusions stay fully intact. All corrections are visible as tracked changes.
Plagiarism check and plagiarism scanner
Our plagiarism checker compares your text with millions of sources. A plagiarism check is essential for students shortly before submission. With plagiarism software you check directly in your browser without installing anything. The report shows the exact degree of similarity and also finds paraphrased passages. Plagiarism checks start at €0.29 per standard page. A combined package covers plagiarism and AI checks together.
AI detection and AI detector
Our AI detector recognises texts from ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek and other AI systems. The AI scan gives a sentence-by-sentence evaluation with colour marking. If you have used AI tools for a draft, a human proofreader is a sensible second check.
Spelling and grammar
Proofreading covers much more than typos: our editors check grammar, punctuation and commas in detail. See our guide to spelling, grammar and punctuation. We also edit English-language texts at native-speaker level.
Which kinds of work can I have proofread?
We proofread all academic work: essays, bachelor theses, master theses, dissertations and more. Term paper editing with a style check is possible too.

Proofreading or editing: which suits my work better?
If your argument and structure are already in place and you just want typos, grammar and punctuation cleaned up, proofreading is enough. If you are unsure about style, word choice or logic, the more thorough editing is worth it. Rule of thumb: bachelor theses usually need proofreading, master theses and dissertations editing, but every piece of work is different.
How long does proofreading a 30-page essay take?
For an essay the standard delivery time you book applies: 5 calendar days. Weekends and public holidays count. With express 48 h or express 24 h it is faster. More at essay proofreading and express proofreading.
What does proofreading cost per standard page?
Proofreading starts at €1.90 per standard page (1,800 characters including spaces), editing from €4.90. Every order earns 10 per cent bonus credit (at most €10 per order) towards your next order; you can use it with a free, confirmed account that has the same email address. Current rates are in the shop.
Do you also correct texts with specialist vocabulary?
Yes. We match orders to editors by subject, so that, for example, a law thesis is handled by an editor with a law degree and a medical thesis by an editor with a scientific background. You can attach a glossary of special terminology when you upload.
Are tables, figures and formulas checked too?
Captions of tables, figures and formulas are checked as standard: spelling in captions, consistency in table headings, completeness of source details. The mathematical correctness of formulas is not part of proofreading or editing; for that we recommend a subject review. We notice layout problems but only correct them in the layout and citation service.
Do I get a correction report after proofreading?
You receive your document back with Word tracked changes switched on: you can accept or reject every single correction. If you wish, we also supply a short accompanying report on conspicuous patterns (for example frequent comma errors). With editing this report is included as standard.
How does proofreading differ from editing a doctoral thesis?
When editing a doctoral thesis the editor intervenes more deeply: line of argument, coherence between chapters, academic style, consistency of terminology. Proofreading a dissertation is rather unusual, because in a doctorate linguistic precision matters even more. More at dissertation proofreading.
Are my references and bibliography checked?
Yes, we check the formal consistency of the bibliography: uniform citation style, complete details, alphabetical order, correct use of "&" and "and". Verifying the sources themselves is not part of standard editing. A detailed guide with examples is in APA 7 citation.
