Seems a bit pricey. How long does it take to proofread a page?

That's a fair question! A thorough proofread of a page (around 250 words) can take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes.
It's less about the time on the clock and more about providing focused, human attention to catch every detail. A quick skim might take 2 minutes, but a professional proofread ensures your work is flawless and protects the credibility you've already built. It's a small investment for peace of mind before you publish!

I think this pricing makes sense for one page but if I had 100 pages to proofread it would be expensive.

I've thought about it: Here's a flexible version for that.
1-10 pages: 10,000 sats per page
11-50 pages: 7,000 sats per page (a sweet 30% discount!)
51-100 pages): 5,500 sats per page (a dazzling 45% discount!)
Above 100 pages: Inquire for Quotation

Great question! I think Grammarly is a fantastic tool for a first pass. The value of a human proofreader comes from what the AI misses:
Context & Nuance: Grammarly won't catch correctly spelled but wrongly used words (e.g., "affect" vs. "effect", or "form" vs. "from"). A human understands your intended meaning.
Tone & Flow: I can ensure the writing flows naturally and the tone is consistent, something an algorithm struggles with.
False Positives: Grammarly often flags things that are actually correct, which can be confusing. I provide the final, confident "all-clear."
In short, Grammarly checks for algorithmic rules; I check for clarity, professionalism, and human understanding.
