The last proofreader
you'll ever search for.

The proofreading industry is flooded with amateur proofreaders. Impersonal agencies specialize in uniformity, not your voice. AI tools that miss what matters and flag non-errors.

I know how frustrating it is to upload a PDF to ChatGPT and get a page of nonsense in return. Or to hire yet another freelancer on Upwork, only for them to miss yet another deadline.

I've done all of that myself, just to see if it works. It doesn't.

Based on a decade of expertise, I partner with each of my clients to deliver documents that are polished, precise, and ready to represent you at the highest level. Now that you've found me, you can stop looking—and you'll never have to cry into your keyboard.

I'm Josiah, and I proofread for professionals and business leaders who work on documents where perfection matters. My career began a decade ago, after I noticed pervasive errors in professional writing that disrupted, distracted, and detracted from the message.

With training from writing instructors at Harvard, Yale, and MIT, published work in the Harvard Summer Review, and an uncanny ability to instantly identify typos, I found a perfect fit in becoming a full-time proofreader. Now, I am a dedicated solo proofreader helping expert business professionals create clear, concise communications that are free from errors.

My clients over the years have included academic publishers, creative professionals, international conferences, technology founders, and government contractors. Professionals at organizations like:

• TED
• Realogy
• The CDC
• Routledge
• A private Warhol collector
• Rockefeller Philanthropy Associates

Over the years, I've learned how to quickly become a subject matter expert, find errors no one else can, give incisive feedback, and help professionals make their writing clearer and more concise.

That means you can spend less time worrying and more time communicating clearly and effectively—and effortlessly become a better writer in the process. And while I can't promise to save your career, I'll gladly ensure it never needs saving.

Brilliant professionals pour expertise, thought, and care into their work, only for it to be dismissed or devalued because of errors they miss. I've seen million-dollar proposals disqualified over mistakes that writers and designers failed to catch; I've watched critical annual reports weaken credibility due to proximity blindness.

That's why I:

• Obsess over the details you are tired of looking at
• Memorize the esoteric rules you don't want to have to know
• Bring expert eyes and a huge knowledge base to catch what you can't

And I hold to a zero-error standard, because I want your document to communicate exactly what you intended.

I love this work because every time I perfect someone's words, I'm removing the barrier between their expertise and their message being heard. I'm protecting what they've built, and I'm helping them communicate at their highest level.

It is deeply satisfying being the final safety net—the eyes that spot what everyone else missed, right before it goes out the door.

You shouldn't have to know the arcane rules of proofreading to have excellent writing. That's my job.
