Scientific Editing Services

We speak the same language.

We see language in exactly the same way that you see math: as a precise tool useful (when used correctly) for conveying exact information that anybody reading in the same language will understand in the same way. In an academic world of deconstructed realities, this claim may seem unusual, even radical, yet it rests on the principles of Aristotelian logic. According to these principles, the things we write and say either make sense or do not, and we can discern their truth or falsehood from the relationships between the claims we make, which are signified by the linguistic operators we use to make them. In other words, we do language math.

Since 2002, our editors have provided high-quality, affordable scientific editing services for quantitative writing to students, professors, and researchers in medicine, engineering, architecture, physics, chemistry, and other scientific fields. Emphasizing correct usage and style in quantitative writing to convey ideas with absolute clarity, we provide scientific copy editing, line editing, proofreading, and formatting services at affordable rates. Each of our scientific editing services returns a meticulous final draft, in either Word or LaTeX format, ready for publication:

  • Scientific Copy Editing Service ($5/pg.) – With a deadline of one week per 100 pages, our copy editing service returns an error-free, print-ready draft, with an emphasis on errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, usage, and style.
  • Scientific Line Editing Service ($8/pg.) – With a one-week deadline for all manuscripts, our line editing service focuses on logical consistency, tone, syntax, and related errors that impede clear writing.
  • Scientific Proofreading Service ($3/pg.) – Our scientific proofreading service provides a final pass of drafts that are grammatically and stylistically clear but need a review for any remaining errors in punctuation, word substitutions (e.g., homonym use), and spelling.
  • LaTeX and Overleaf Editing Service (same rates as above) – We edit your manuscript directly in your .tex files or shared Overleaf project, working around your equations, macros, and cross-references. We correct your BibTeX entries and keep your journal’s class and style files intact, so the document compiles cleanly when we return it.
  • Citation Formatting Service ($1.50/pg.) – With our citation style formatting service, we edit in the major scientific citation styles (ACS, AIP, AMS, AMA, ICMJE, and IEEE), correctly formatting them and labeling missing information, such as date and place of publication and page numbers.
  • Layout Formatting Service ($1.50/pg.) – Our layout formatting service meets the guidelines for the appearance of your draft specified by your university, journal, or academic press.

Both our line editing and our copy editing services include a final proofreading pass.
