"Two-Editor" System & Native English-speaking Editors

Under our "Two-Editor" system, manuscripts are reviewed by two highly skilled editors to ensure language consistency and accuracy. After a thorough edit by a PhD-qualified subject-area specialist, a second editor polishes and refines your paper to remove any existing ambiguities. Our editors are all native English speakers (from US, UK, Australia, and Canada) and familiar with the issues that occur with ESL writing.

Specialized Subject-area Matching

Every manuscript submitted to us is matched to an editor with highly specialized subject-area expertise. For example, a paper in Neurology will be edited by an editor who is an MD in Neurology, not by a specialist in Medical Sciences. This technical competency enables us to optimize the content as well as the language and pay due attention to the most subtle intricacies.

Service Guarantee

For any service you opt, you can count on us for expertise, accuracy, and care. Our stringent systems and processes, experienced editors, and certified quality management system help us in delivering this promise to our authors. We guarantee that all assignments will be delivered on time and with the best quality. On a rare occasion if rejection occurs due to any language issue, we will take full responsibility of re-editing the paper for resubmission at no additional cost.
