Have another question?
What is included in a billable page?

One billable page equals 250 words. The total word count is rounded up to the next whole page and includes all text submitted for review, including references and appendices. Blank pages are excluded. Dense tables, figures, and special templates are quoted separately.

For example, a 2,500-word document is 10 billable pages: $50 for formatting review or $80 for formatting and citation review.

Can you help with an approaching deadline?

The typical target for a standard short project is 3–5 business days after acceptance, receipt of all materials, and any required deposit. Requests under 48 hours may carry a 25% rush surcharge and depend on availability. The written quote confirms your delivery date.

What happens after delivery?

You receive an edited Word document and brief notes on unresolved items. One follow-up round on the original scope is included when requested within 7 calendar days of delivery. New text, new sources, or changed requirements require a revised quote.

How do quotes and payments work?

Quotes are valid for 14 calendar days. Projects of $100 or more require a 50% deposit, with the balance due at delivery. Smaller projects are payable at delivery.

Scope or fee changes require written agreement before additional work begins. If hourly work is used to calculate a fixed quote, the total is agreed before work starts; the same work is not billed twice.

What does academic support cover?

Support covers formatting and citation presentation. It does not include writing assignments, developing arguments, verifying every source against the original, or guaranteeing a grade or publication.

You retain authorship and responsibility for submission requirements, including your institution’s rules on outside assistance.
