Work with us
We take on writing and editing commissions. Everything on this site was produced in-house, so the clearest sense of what we do is to read some of it.

What we take on
Explainers on AI, detection, and academic integrity
Long-form pieces that explain a mechanism rather than summarising the discourse — how detectors estimate predictability, why they misfire on second-language writing, what a score does and does not mean. We read the underlying research rather than the press release.
Writing-craft and style guides
Practical guides on rhythm, structure, cutting, and voice, written to be applied to a draft rather than admired. Suited to publications and SaaS blogs serving writers, students, or marketing teams.
Editing AI-assisted drafts
Taking a generated or half-finished draft and making it publishable: verifying every claim, cutting what is padding, restoring rhythm, and adding the specifics that make writing worth reading. Documented in our own editing checklist.
Photography and image-processing explainers
Technical writing on sensor noise, film grain, banding, and why generated images read as synthetic — the kind of piece that needs the physics to be right, not just the vocabulary.
Selected work
Six pieces that show the range — a research explainer, a technical teardown, a craft guide, and one written for a reader in trouble.

How to Write Like a Human: The Complete Guide
Writing that sounds human is not a style you adopt. It is a set of specific, learnable habits — rhythm, specificity, commitment, and voice. Here is all of it.
Why commission this rather than someone else
Most writing about AI detection is produced either by companies selling detectors or by writers summarising other people's summaries. We built the Text Humanizer and the Photo Humanizer, which means the technical claims in our writing come from having implemented the thing rather than having read about it.
That shows up in the detail. Our grain articles specify blend modes and explain why overlay weights the midtones. Our detection articles explain perplexity rather than asserting that detectors are unreliable. When our own tool is the wrong answer, we say so — there are several articles on this site that recommend doing the work by hand instead.
How we research, correct, and disclose is written down on our editorial standards page, including our policy on AI assistance in our own drafting.
