Percentage & Sum Coherence
Validates that breakdowns, proportions, and percentage splits correctly equal 100%.
Flags arithmetic inconsistencies in tables and running text (e.g., 28 of 120 reported as 28.3% instead of 23.3%).
Research Methodology Recognition
Recognises over 60 qualitative and quantitative research designs.
Audits convergent validity (AVE), Cronbach’s alpha, factor loadings, sample size justifications, and regression assumptions.
Scientific Units & Chemistry Formulations
Validates SI units, compound formulas, boiling points, and constants.
Detects typos in standard scientific constants, physics units (e.g., kg/m³ vs g/cm³), and chemical balancing.
Source Verification
Citations, DOIs & Reference Registry
Compare your in-text citations against your reference list and official bibliographic registries, stopping missing entries before submission.
In-Text Citation to Reference List Matching
Every name and date cited in your text is cross-referenced with your final reference list.
Catches cited authors missing from the bibliography and bibliography entries never cited in the body.
Live Crossref & OpenAlex Registry Lookups
Validates published titles, journal volume numbers, and DOIs against genuine databases.
Confirms whether a DOI exists and matches the cited authors, eliminating hallucinated or fabricated citations.
Direct Quotation Verification
Checks direct quotes against original publication excerpts.
Warns when an author’s paraphrased concept is placed inside verbatim quotation marks without exact textual match.
Multidisciplinary Citation Standards
Native formatting engines for all major scholarly styles.
Full support for APA 7th, MLA 9th, Chicago 17th (Author-Date & Notes), Harvard, IEEE, Vancouver, and OSCOLA.

Nigerian & Commonwealth University Standards
Rules calibrated for institutional guidelines.
Includes specific formatting guidelines for University of Lagos (UNILAG), University of Ibadan (UI), OAU, and Nigerian Law School.
British vs American Academic Register
Consistent dialect preservation across whole manuscripts.
Standardises spelling (e.g. -ise vs -ize, -our vs -or) and punctuation rules (single vs double quotation marks).

5-Tier Stealth Academic Humanizer
Natural academic flow without sacrificing discipline-specific terminology.
Tiers from Light Flow Polish up to Level 5 Deep Analytical Re-synthesis, preserving technical jargon and methodologies.
Assignment Brief & Rubric Auditor
Compare your draft directly against your module assignment brief.
Evaluates whether all required grading criteria, word limits, question components, and sections are covered.
Critical Argument & Analytical Expansion
Identifies superficial descriptive paragraphs and suggests critical depth.
Encourages analytical critique (why it matters, implications, limitations) rather than passive summary.
