The review
Find the errors that change your conclusions
Refine reads your document the way an expert referee would. It follows each argument, derivation and figure, checks your claims against your own data and definitions, and comments where the reasoning breaks.
How it works
- 1
Refine reads the whole document
Text, equations, figures and tables, with the field and kind of document in mind.
- 2
It checks every argument
Each claim, derivation and result is examined in detail and against the rest of the document.
- 3
You get the issues that matter
Comments come ranked, the most important first, each linked to the passage it is about.
Key benefits
Logical, conceptual and factual errors
Contradictions, unsupported steps and wrong facts, not typos and style.
Consistent from start to finish
A number in the introduction is checked against Section II, however far apart they are.
Methods and inference
Identification, sample selection and statistical inference get the scrutiny a referee would give them.
Figures and tables too
Charts, diagrams and tables are read alongside the text and checked against it.
Tuned to your field
The review adapts to your discipline and the kind of document, from economics papers to legal briefs.
Comments that point to real problems
In mathematician Daniel Litt's check, 97.8% of 278 comments pointed to real issues.
Example use cases
- A paper before submission to a top journal.
- A thesis chapter your committee will read closely.
- A grant proposal whose case rests on a few key results.
- A policy or legal analysis that has to hold up to scrutiny.
- A long report where a number in the summary must match the appendix.
