Frequently asked questions

You remain the author. We help you plan, structure, review, edit and strengthen a thesis that is yours: your research, your data, your argument. Writing it yourself is what lets you defend it at the viva and keeps the declaration you sign true. Our ethics policy sets out exactly where our help begins and ends.

Getting expert help with language, structure, statistics and formatting is ethical, and common. It’s what editors, statisticians and methods advisors have always done. Having someone else produce your research is not. The test we use: could you explain and defend every part of the final work yourself? If yes, the help was support.

We communicate only with you. We’d also encourage you to be able to tell them. Many universities permit or expect acknowledgement of editorial and statistical help, and we can help you word it.

Our reviewers and editors do all the writing and editing themselves. If you use AI tools yourself, check your university’s and the journal’s policy on disclosure, and verify every reference such a tool suggests.

We choose the right analysis for your data and objectives, check its assumptions and report what the data show. Non-significant results, reported clearly with effect sizes, are a legitimate finding. The analysis follows the data, which is what research integrity requires.

It depends on the service, the length and state of your material, and your subject. We quote a fixed price after seeing your material, in writing, before any work starts. How pricing works.

You pay in stages as work is delivered, so you’re never far ahead of what you’ve received.

Each scope includes revision rounds. If we can’t deliver a stage as scoped, we refund that stage. The details are in our terms.

The price for the work in the scope stays fixed. If you ask for something new, such as a new chapter, a new analysis or a change of direction from your supervisor, we quote it separately and you decide.
