Humanizing AI-assisted writing

Over the past year, AI-generated text has become increasingly prevalent, offering the allure of efficiency and speed in content creation. However, despite its advances, AI writing often lacks the refinement that only human interaction and understanding can provide. AI-generated content, while impressive, often misses the mark on subtleties such as emotional depth, cultural nuances, and the idiosyncratic flair that characterizes compelling human writing.

While AI-generated text is usually grammatically correct and covers topics broadly, it can fall short in engaging readers on a deeper level, where the essence of storytelling and personal connection lies.We understand these limitations, and we can help you address the shortcomings of AI-written text.

Our service is dedicated to humanizing text written with the assistance of AI-driven applications, ensuring that your content not only informs but also connects and resonates with your audience. We address these issues by infusing your AI-generated drafts with the nuances that only human editors can provide. Our team focuses on enhancing the readability and relatability of your content, paying close attention to tone, style, and the subtle cues that make your text feel genuinely human. By incorporating cultural references, idiomatic expressions, and personalized touches, we transform AI outputs into engaging, reader-friendly content that reflects your unique voice and vision.

Accepted in my target journal

“My manuscript was rejected from my target journal due to English language flaws. They requested that I seek professional academic editing to help to fix the issues. After reading positive reviews, I tried Cambridge. The experience was highly satisfactory – after their work, my manuscript was accepted by the journal!”

Jonas, University of Amsterdam

The best proofreading service

“Many thanks to the editors, Suzanne and Kathleen. After spending tens if not hundreds of hours working on my manuscript, I think I would have gone crazy if I had to proofread it. The editors have done a fabulous job of correcting my many mistakes.”

Geoffrey, London, UK

Very satisfied with the work by the editor

“I used Cambridge’s academic editing services and was very satisfied with the results. I subsequently used them to edit the manuscript that I developed from the original thesis. Again, they delivered satisfactory results. I will use them again in the future.”

Fabiano, Toronto, Canada
