Technical and Compliance Editing

Technical editing is way more than proofreading. This involves the accuracy and precision in the content that just cannot afford to go wrong. It's finding what is missing from the content to make it more robust and fits within industry standards to deliver the best presentation of information. From legal contracts to financial reports, or even doctoral and government research documentation, we dive deep inside the details so that your work not only makes sense but also complies with industry-specific jargon and guidelines. Just think of it as your content's built-in expert, checking clarity, consistency, and technical integrity.

Compliance editing ups the game. This editing is about pepping up your documents with the required regulations necessary in that field. Think, do you use or catch all the appropriate language that the industry requires or regulates? If not, industries such as law, finance, or government do not have room for those mishaps or interpretation. In some cases it means a hefty fine, if for example, your marketing materials are misleading per the rules certain public entities set, i.e. FDA, FTC, SEC, and others. We clear your language as much as possible and check on each and every requirement, so that you'll be just about delivering information. By the book, it ensures that no errors are left behind that may cause the most costly mistakes or even misunderstandings.

The difference between technical and compliance editing is subtle but very important. Whereas technical editing has to do with the accuracy and clarity of the content, compliance pertains to adherence to rules and standards. Both put together create one solid safety net for your documents-so you can rest assured that every document released is accurate and fully compliant.
