Standard Proofread

is the basic level of editing recommended for relatively well-written manuscripts that need a final check or polishing before submission.

Advance Editing

is the second level. It includes proofreading and reviewing sentence construction, grammar, and terminology.

Premium editing is our most advanced level of editing. It includes all Standard editing level services as well as reviewing for logic and relevance of content and the structure and language style in the manuscript.

The editing processes and confidentiality requirements at Editage are backed by an ISO 9001:2000 certification. Every editing assignment that we receive is handled by two subject–matter experts (a lead editor and a reviewer) and a managing editor.

After delivery, the client receives ongoing support in the form of multiple-round editing or client questions, until he/she is satisfied.
