Prices and payments

Our pricing structure is straightforward and gives maximum flexibility for our customers to choose the level of service that they require at a price that is both highly competitive and clear up-front. Although there are cheaper proofreading only services available online we are confident that we offer the best value for a full editing and academic review service by British, native English speaking, PhD educated academics. If you want to be published in English and you are not a native English speaker do not be duped into engaging a proofreading only service, especially from providers that are not specialists in academic writing – your manuscript is likely to need the kind of thorough, academically informed, review that we provide.

Pricing is based on a combination of the extent of editing required, the length of the manuscript and the desired turnaround time.

We offer a proofreading service and a full editing service. Our normal turnaround time is 7 days, although in practice manuscripts are often returned more quickly than this. For urgent jobs (up to 5,000 words in length) we also offer a 48 hour service. Costs are calculated at a per word rate depending upon the above parameters.

Manuscripts in excess of 10,000 words in length (e.g. PhD theses or books) will be priced on a case by case basis. Please email us at enquiries@academic-editors.com for details.
