Elevating AI‑generated text to meet scholarly standards
HUMAN EDITING OF AI-GENERATED TEXT
While AI tools can support academic writing through automated text generation, their outputs often lack the precision, coherence, and disciplinary nuance required for scholarly work. Our human editing service ensures that AI-generated content meets rigorous academic standards by refining language, improving logical flow, verifying factual accuracy, and aligning the text with appropriate disciplinary conventions. This service is particularly valuable for researchers and students who use generative AI as a drafting tool but require expert intervention to produce publication-ready material.

FAQs
1. What does “human editing of AI-generated text” involve?
This service provides expert editing of content produced using AI tools such as ChatGPT or similar platforms. It includes improving structure, tone, clarity and accuracy, correcting errors or inconsistencies, ensuring factual reliability, and adapting the text to its intended audience and purpose.
2. Why should I have AI-generated text edited by a human?
While AI can assist with drafting, it often produces generic, repetitive, or stylistically inconsistent content, and may contain factual inaccuracies or inappropriate phrasing. A professional editor ensures that the final text meets academic, professional or publication standards, and is free from errors, redundancy and ambiguity.
3. Do you verify the accuracy of AI-generated content?
Yes, where possible. We check for factual accuracy, coherence, and internal consistency. However, for technical or scientific content, clients are expected to supply reliable source material or references if the AI-generated text lacks citations.
4. Can you edit AI-generated academic work?
Yes, but with clear ethical boundaries. We do not write or generate academic content on your behalf. However, if you have used AI to help you draft a thesis, article or assignment, we can edit it for clarity, structure, style and accuracy, provided the work is your own and not plagiarised. *We can run plagiarism checks to ensure that AI-generated text does not violate plagiarism rules of your target journal (as these vary from journal to journal) and provide appropriate certification.
5. Will the edited text still sound like me?
Yes. Part of the editorial process involves aligning the tone and voice of the text with your intended style. Where appropriate, we can refine or neutralise AI-generated language to ensure consistency with your own writing. Note that AI use for linguistic and stylistic improvement is allowed and even encouraged by most journals.
6. Can I submit AI-edited text for publication or assessment?
That depends on the guidelines of your institution or publisher. Many now allow the use of AI tools with disclosure, but human editing helps ensure the final version is polished, coherent and compliant with ethical and editorial standards.
7. Do you offer feedback on how to improve future AI use?
Yes. On request, we provide a guidance report (available with Comprehensive Editing only) on how to prompt more effectively, avoid common pitfalls in AI drafting, and identify typical signs of AI-generated phrasing that may need human revision.
8. Can you translate or edit AI-generated texts into French or Spanish?
Yes, we work with English, French and Spanish texts. We can edit AI-generated content in these languages, or translate AI-generated drafts across these language pairs while applying professional editorial judgement.
