What copyediting services is for
Copyediting is usually more detailed than proofreading. It focuses on sentence-level clarity, consistency, tone, grammar and readability while keeping the writer’s meaning intact.
Editors Portal is designed to help clients make a clearer choice before contacting an editor. Instead of searching for a generic “proofreader” or “editor”, you can start from the document type, the level of support you need and the category of editor most likely to fit the work.
This service is often useful when
- your document needs more than a final check
- the writing is understandable but could be clearer
- tone, style or terminology is inconsistent
- several sections were written by different contributors
- you want the document to read more smoothly
What an editor may help with
- sentence clarity and flow
- grammar and punctuation
- style and terminology consistency
- readability and concision
- light restructuring of awkward wording where agreed
Brief the editor clearly
Include your word count, deadline, document type, subject area, English variant and what you are most concerned about. A clearer brief helps editors assess scope and provide more useful responses.
Proofreading or editing?
If the document is already close to final, proofreading may be enough. If the writing still feels unclear, repetitive, awkward or poorly structured, editing may be the better option. Many clients use editing first and proofreading later, especially for important or long-form documents.
