§ 06 , Testimonials

What researchers say about our support.

A selection of recent feedback from authors who have completed a Full Support Pack or Easy-Go Pack engagement with APC.

"The Full Support Pack turned a stalled manuscript into an accepted paper within four months. The pre-submission review alone flagged issues that two rounds of internal review had missed."

Dr. Maria Santos
Dr. Maria Santos Molecular Biologist · Lisbon

"I used Easy-Go Pack twice , both times the turnaround was under two weeks and the submission portal handling was flawless. For an experienced author, this is exactly the right level of support."

Dr. James Chen
Dr. James Chen Assistant Professor · Neuroscience

"Clear pricing, no hidden add-ons, and a dedicated project manager who actually responded on weekends. Worth every dollar of the Full Support Pack."

§ 07 , FAQs

Common questions about pricing.

What's the difference between the Full Support Pack and the Easy-Go Pack?
The Full Support Pack is an end-to-end solution for early-stage researchers, covering the full journey from journal selection to submission with longer, more thorough turnarounds. The Easy-Go Pack is designed for experienced researchers who already know their target journal and want to expedite submission , it trades scope for speed.
What are the advantages of choosing Publication Support Packs over individual services?
Packs bundle multiple services into a single engagement with coordinated timelines, one point of contact, and better overall value than purchasing each service separately. They also include the plagiarism check, which is not available as a standalone service. The Full Support Pack additionally includes a dedicated project manager and priority support.
How are Full Support Pack and Easy-Go Pack pricing structured?
Both packs are priced by word count band, with a standard turnaround price and an express turnaround price for faster delivery. Pricing scales in tiers , for example, the Full Support Pack ranges from $840 (up to 5000 words, standard) to $1,540 (7001–8000 words, express).
Can I select individual publication support services?
Yes. Journal Selection, Pre-Submission Peer Review, Formatting and Artwork Editing, Journal Submission, and Revised / Rejected Paper Editing can all be ordered individually. The Plagiarism Check is the only service that must be purchased as part of a package.
What happens if my manuscript is rejected after the pack is delivered?
Both packs include 365-day free revisions , this covers formatting, restructuring, and cover letter updates for any resubmission within the year. If your paper is rejected and you need a full re-scoping (e.g., a different target journal), our team will quote a discounted revision package based on the remaining scope.
How do I know the turnaround times in the table are accurate for my manuscript?
The turnaround times shown are for the word-count band you select and assume you provide a submission-ready manuscript without major content gaps. If our reviewer flags substantial issues on intake, we'll confirm a revised timeline with you before starting work , you're never billed for time outside the agreed scope.
