What is a citation & originality check, and how do you get help?

This service reviews a draft you’ve already written: we run it through a similarity report and check every citation against your required style guide. Where the report flags a passage, an editor reviews it and tells you exactly why, whether it’s a missing citation, an over-close paraphrase, or a formatting error, so you can fix it yourself.

This isn’t a way to make someone else’s writing look original, and we won’t take content that isn’t substantially yours and “clean it up” to hide that. It’s a check on your own finished work, the same kind of pass a careful student runs before handing anything in.

What this service doesn’t do: we don’t rewrite text to evade plagiarism detection, and we don’t accept work that isn’t primarily the student’s own for this service. If a draft looks substantially written by someone else or by AI beyond light drafting help, we’ll flag that rather than process it.

What’s included

Similarity report

A full originality report against academic and web sources, with a plain-language summary.

Citation check

Every in-text citation and reference verified against your required style guide.

Paraphrase review

Flags passages that sit too close to a source, with suggested rewording guidance, not a rewrite.

Formatting check

Reference list, headings, and layout checked against your assignment brief.

How it works

  1. Submit your completed draft. Upload your own finished writing along with your citation style and assignment brief.
  2. We run the checks. A similarity report plus a manual citation and formatting review.
  3. You get a clear report. Every flagged passage explained, with guidance on how to fix it yourself.
  4. Ask questions & revise. Use your free follow-up to clarify anything before you submit.

Tip: check as you go

Running a check earlier in your writing process, rather than the night before a deadline, gives you time to actually revise flagged passages instead of just seeing a score. Keep a running list of every source you read, even ones you don’t end up quoting directly, so citations are easy to verify later.
