PaperCheck Billing and Plans Explained

At PaperCheck, we believe that high-quality, specialized academic feedback should be accessible to every student, whether you're writing a short seminar paper, an extensive term paper, or a massive master's thesis.

We do away with confusing subscriptions and hidden fees. Instead, we offer transparent, one-time payments that grant you permanent access to your feedback. Here's everything you need to know about our pricing tiers and our unique word-count discounts.

Our Three Core Tiers

We offer three packages designed to support you at whatever stage you are in your writing process:

1. Basic

The Basic package is perfect if your thesis is essentially finished and you just need a final, comprehensive check before submitting.

  • Revisions: Feedback on 1 version of your thesis.
  • Features: It covers all the essential academic standards, including cover page, abstract, coherence, source density, logical errors, inclusive language, and correct citation styles.
  • Bonus: You receive an automatic, prioritized to-do list based on your feedback and submission date to cure any final writer's block.

The Plus package is our most popular tier, designed for students deep in the writing process who want iterative feedback as they build out their thesis.

  • Revisions: Feedback on up to 3 versions of your thesis. Check a draft, refine it, and check it again.
  • Custom Checks: You can add up to 18 custom checks. Upload your university's specific formatting or content guidelines so the AI can verify your compliance.
  • Defense Prep: We automatically generate possible defense questions based on your paper's weak points and provide access to a defense trainer where you can practice and record your answers.

3. Ultimate

The Ultimate package is for those seeking absolute perfection and maximum support.

  • Revisions: Feedback on up to 5 versions of your thesis.
  • Custom Checks: Up to 45 custom checks to ensure you miss nothing.
  • Features: Includes all the robust defense preparation features and academic checks found in the Plus tier.

The "Under 6,000 Words" Discount

We recognize that reviewing a 15-page essay requires less computational power than analyzing a 120-page dissertation. We strongly believe those savings should be passed on to you.

If your uploaded document contains less than 6,000 words (e.g., seminar papers, module papers, short essays), a significant discount is automatically applied to all three of our pricing tiers at checkout.

How it Works:

  1. Upload your document: Our system instantly calculates your character and word count.
  2. Automatic Detection: If your paper falls below the 6,000-word threshold, the system triggers the "Less Characters" discount.
  3. Instant Savings: Depending on your region (CHF, EUR, USD, GBP, CAD), your price will drop. For example, the Basic plan might drop to just €15 or CHF 19, while the Ultimate plan receives an even larger reduction.

You do not need an affiliate code or a student ID to claim this; the discount is applied directly based on the length of your work.


Seamless Upgrades (Pay Only the Difference)

What if you purchase the Basic plan to check a draft, but later realize you want to use the Defense Trainer available in the Plus plan?

We offer seamless, pro-rated upgrades. If you decide to upgrade from Basic to Plus (or to Ultimate), we calculate the exact difference between what you already paid and the cost of the higher tier.

You will never pay twice for the same service. You simply pay the difference, and the extra versions, custom checks, and defense prep tools unlock instantly.

No hidden subscriptions. No risk. Just better grades.
