Content editing services for AI-assisted B2B content
I offer three levels of editing for SaaS companies and agencies. I do every edit myself, and each one is returned with tracked changes and notes, so your writers can see what changed and why.
01
Copyediting
For drafts that say the right thing and read badly.
From US$250 per piece, up to 1,500 words
Sentence-level editing for grammar, clarity, consistency and your house style. I flag any claim I can't trace to a source.
What's included
- Grammar, spelling and punctuation
- Clearer sentences and shorter paragraphs
- Consistency with your style guide and terminology
- Flags on unsourced claims, figures and quotes
Typical content
Blog posts, newsletters, help-centre articles and other content that is already structured well.
02
Substantive editing
For drafts with a sound idea and a weak structure.
From US$500 per piece, up to 1,500 words
I reorder the argument, cut repetition, check facts against their sources and bring the piece back to your brand voice.
What's included
- Everything in copyediting
- Structure: the point moved to where readers look for it
- Fact-checking of figures, quotes and claims against sources
- Edits against your brand voice guide
- A check that the page answers what its target search is asking
Typical content
Pillar posts, guides, thought-leadership pieces and drafts produced at volume with AI tools.
03
Strategic rewriting
For important pages that aren't doing their job.
From US$900 per page
I rewrite from your brief, sources and voice guide. Suited to landing pages, pillar posts and pages that rank without converting.
What's included
- A short brief agreed with you before writing
- A full rewrite using only claims you can support
- Search intent and on-page SEO checked against the target query
- One round of revisions
Typical content
Landing pages, service pages, high-traffic posts and pages you plan to promote.
Choosing a level
Copyediting or substantive editing?
Copyediting works at the level of the sentence: grammar, clarity, consistency and style. It assumes the structure and the facts are sound.
Substantive editing works at the level of the whole piece. It changes the order of the argument, removes sections that repeat, checks claims against sources and corrects the voice. AI-assisted drafts usually need this level, because their problems are structural more often than grammatical.
The sample edit shows which level your drafts need before you commit to anything.

One-off price
US$3,000 a month
An estimate from my starting prices. I confirm the final price after the free sample edit.
How the retainer works
The starting retainer includes up to 8 substantive edits of up to 1,500 words each. A copyedit counts as half a piece. Strategic rewrites are priced per page on top. If you publish more, we agree a larger volume after the sample edit, based on the length of your pieces and the level of editing they need.
Every piece is returned with tracked changes, an editor's note and a list of any claims that need a source from your team.
Once you're a client
How working together runs
Pay upfront
I start once payment for the month or the piece is in. Your service invoice follows once payment is complete.
Get your client portal
You get a dedicated portal for all your files. It lists everything I need from you, so nothing gets lost in email threads.
Upload your brief and drafts
Add your brief, drafts, brand voice guide and sources to the portal. I work from what's there.
Get your edits back
Edited drafts come back to the same portal with tracked changes and an editor's note.
Start with one draft
Send a draft for a sample edit
Send up to 800 words. Within three working days you'll get the edited draft with tracked changes and my recommendation on scope. No retainer is required.
