Who we help: proofreading and editing for study, school, books and work

All twelve groups at a glance

Texts are written in very different situations. A final thesis needs other points of focus than a novel, a module handbook or a set of club statutes. Here you find all twelve groups we work with, so you can go straight to the offer that was made for your text.

Choose the group that fits your text

Each card describes a typical starting point for that group. Wherever a group has a dedicated page on this site, it is linked.

What differs between the groups

We check spelling, grammar and punctuation in every order. Beyond that, the purpose of the text decides what needs special attention. For students and researchers, academic conventions, terminology and a consistent line of argument come first. Authors additionally need a reliable eye for narrative voice, character handling and reading flow.

Schools, universities and training institutes often produce many related documents. Uniform terms, clear information and a dependable style across all files then matter most. Publishers, associations, companies and agencies also tend to work with several contributors. Besides language, we therefore check whether names, figures, headings and recurring phrases are consistent.

International writers receive an especially careful edit. We do not only correct single mistakes: we make sure that the text sounds idiomatic and that the intended message is kept. Changes stay visible in tracked changes, and you can accept or reject each one individually. See also our page on English proofreading.

When several groups fit

Many texts belong to more than one group. A doctoral candidate can also be an author, a university can publish an annual report, and an association can produce teaching material. In that case choose the group closest to the purpose of the specific text.

You do not have to settle the choice before you upload. Upload your text and briefly say what it will be used for. We assign the order to a suitable subject area and give you a fixed price before we begin. For an overview by kind of document instead of by reader, see text types.

Frequently asked questions

Which group should I choose if several fit?

Choose the group closest to the purpose of your text. For an academic publication that would be researchers and doctoral candidates, even if you are also an author.

Can I have a text checked that fits none of the groups?

Yes. The twelve groups cover the most common cases. Through the upload you can also send other German or English texts and briefly describe what they are for.

Do prices differ by group?

No. What counts is the length, the service you want and the turnaround time. You receive a fixed price before you place the order.

Who works on my text?

We assign orders by text type and subject area. A scholarly paper, a novel or a company text each go to a suitable editor.
