About

If you're working on contracts, proposals, reports, technical documents, articles and books, PerfectIt saves time on copy-editing, so that authors can pay more attention to what matters most: the words and their meaning. By helping to eliminate typos, it saves money on re-writes and changes, especially after documents have gone to press. It increases the chance that proposals will be accepted and articles will be published. It can enforce the preferences of your house style and ensure that your business is presented the way you want it to be. Abbreviations help to save space. But they can also be confusing or distracting; and when readers don’t understand them, they can get in the way of your message. PerfectIt brings clarity by linking every abbreviation to its definition. It can automatically generate a Table of Abbreviations and it can check every abbreviation in your text to make sure it’s defined on first use.

About

Start a Press is a white-label publishing operations platform for independent presses, book coaches, ghostwriters and organizations that publish books for authors. Each press can use a branded website, storefront, author portal and publisher workspace, with work coordinated by an AI agent connected to the press's ChatGPT account. Its publishing workflow covers author inquiries and quote drafts, manuscript intake and copyediting, cover and interior production, metadata, and distribution through the press's IngramSpark and Amazon KDP accounts. Publishers can import sales reports, calculate royalties, handle treaty withholding and track author tax forms. The platform is designed to preserve the press's brand, domain, ISBNs, author relationships and revenue, while keeping contracts and payments subject to owner approval. Plans are based on catalog size and carry monthly subscription charges plus an initial setup fee.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's an add-in in Word - no security issues and really fast and easy to use - you just click 'launch' from the ribbon inside the document and then 'run PerfectIt' each time. I run it several times when I'm working on proposals. It saves me hours checking long documents for minor errors. Literally, hours. And it gives me confidence that the document I submit has had a through quality control check. The 14-day free trial is actually free - no credit card details required It's just really clever - runs 27 checks across the whole document and points out inconsistencies. Eg if you have capitalized a heading on one page and not on another or if you have used US spelling here and UK spelling there. It can even eliminate double spaces after periods and remind you to define acronyms. It can be customized for House Style - eg preferred spellings. It's cheap - it's only $70 per year, and with my APMP discount I get 30% off.

Cons

  • I wish there was an option to pay monthly rather than annually but I appreciate that PerfectIt don't take credit card details and automatic renewals because I'm the type of person who always forgets to cancel!
