“Hoped for the best and got it!”

“I needed to have a paper proofread that was going to be published. Because English is not my native language, I was unsure about the text’s linguistic quality. I’m all the more grateful that B. & K. from Scribbr took care of my request very professionally, thoughtfully, and above all, quickly. It couldn’t have gone better!”

— Liz, Student at University Y

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:

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

Yes!
This is the “editing” in Scribbr’s standard service. It can only be selected in combination with proofreading.

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.
