Before purchasing
RevisionGrade evaluates full manuscripts, partial manuscripts, chapters, and serious narrative excerpts. It does not evaluate letters, resumes, academic papers, legal documents, contracts, marketing materials, query letters, synopses, or author biographies. Paid checkout requires acknowledgment of these limits before purchase.
What we do / don't do
RevisionGrade evaluates: novels, novellas, book-length memoirs, narrative nonfiction manuscripts, and serious narrative excerpts.
RevisionGrade does not evaluate: personal/business letters, professional correspondence, query letters, synopses, author bios, resumes/CVs, academic/research papers, legal documents, contracts, or marketing/sales copy.

A Note on Editorial Readiness
RevisionGrade™ is not a blank-page writing tool.
It is a manuscript readiness and repair system for work that already exists.
Do not buy sentence polish for a structural problem. RevisionGrade diagnoses the level of intervention before you spend money on the wrong one.
Structural problems need structural diagnosis. Polish comes later.
FAQ
Fixed-price audit. Metered repair.
What can RevisionGrade evaluate?
RevisionGrade evaluates full manuscripts, partial manuscripts, individual chapters, and serious narrative excerpts, including novels, novellas, book-length memoirs, narrative nonfiction manuscripts, and serious fiction or nonfiction excerpts.
What does RevisionGrade not evaluate?
RevisionGrade does not evaluate letters, resumes, academic papers, legal documents, contracts, marketing copy, query letters, synopses, author biographies, or other general documents.
Are evaluation purchases refundable?
Paid evaluations are final once processing begins because each report is a custom digital analysis. Billing errors, duplicate charges, or verified non-delivery will be reviewed.
Is RevisionGrade replacing human editors?
No. RevisionGrade helps you understand what kind of editorial help your manuscript may benefit from before you spend money on the wrong intervention.
