Proofreading, editing and formatting services

We can help. We'll ensure the writing in your publication sounds credible and professional, that it follows your organisation's writing style and style guide, and is consistent and appropriate for your audience.

Who do we help?

We proofread and edit corporate publications and reports, mainly for New Zealand government departments, Crown agencies, commissions and other public service sector organisations. We also work for communications and marketing teams, academics, businesses and non-profits.

All of Government suppliers

We were appointed to the All of Government Creative and Media Services panel in 2024. This means we're pre-approved to work with Aotearoa New Zealand government agencies.

Learn more about working with us through the AOG CMS panel.
