Scribbr is a life saver. I mostly use their citation tools, which function well, are easy to use, and have every feature I could ask for. The Grammar and AI tools also appear to work well. There is so much available without subscription or obnoxious ads.

Exceptional Service with High-Quality Results
I had an excellent experience with Scribbr. The service was efficient, reliable, and highly professional from start to finish. What stood out most was the clarity and quality of feedback, which was both constructive and actionable. The turnaround time was prompt, and communication throughout the process was smooth and responsive.
The platform is user-friendly, and the overall process is well-structured, making it easy to submit work and track progress. Scribbr clearly demonstrates a strong commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
I would highly recommend Scribbr to anyone seeking dependable academic support and high-quality editorial services.

I keep trying to cite my image, and everything just disappears when I fill it out, and it doesn't give me the citation. Just so you are aware that this happens.

From what I'm reviewing Rick made some…
From what I'm reviewing Rick made some outstanding changes and suggestions. I am so elated that I went with this company vs others. I have read some scary reviews about other companies, even BBB complaints. So, I will be submitting soon and I will keep up all, Rick, abreast!
Thank you Rick!!

Service not working.
The worst experience possible to imagine. You have to uploaded your document, then pay and then your report is generated, or as in my case not at all. I uploaded my submission in PDF, a score was assigned but the report "could not be generated". in the end I uploaded the exact same document 3 separate times over a period of 3 days, received 3 different plagiarism scores. Not only did the site and product not work for multiple submissions, their support staff took days to reply and my problem was still not resolved. And then they choose to refund me, after I was given a choice to resubmit again or refund, against my explicit wishes. All this cause me to not be able to get a proper check done before my submission deadline. Will definitely recommend everyone I meet to NOT make use of your service as its most definite defective product that is being pushed with false advertising!

Dear Louis,
Thanks for using Scribbr and for sharing your experience with us.
We are sincerely sorry to learn that you are not entirely satisfied with your orders and the discrepancies in similarity rates. Indeed, we tried to solve the issue together by attempting to re-upload the document several times, but nothing seemed to work. Unfortunately, we were unable to fix the bug before your submission date. Our sincere apologies about the inconvenience.
We did indeed refund your first order as a last resort to make sure that you would not have paid for a report you never received. This was unfortunately our only option.
If there is still something we can do for you, please do not hesitate to reach out at [email protected]. We thank you for your feedback and your review once again, and hope that your future experiences on our platform will turn out better.

The service is genuine. Proofreading is done with extra care, and the editor provides helpful comments to clarify the changes. The proofread paper was delivered before the specified time. Overall, a good service.

Super Useful
Super useful, it pulls the information off links and other sources to create the citations in several styles (APA, MLA, etc.) and allows you to use different text formats to match the on you're using in your work. Even more convenient that you can set folders for each topic or class you're working on to keep your citations organized and accessible. I like that it builds in-text citations and explains how to use them respectively. ALWAYS CHECK THE CITATIONS, automatically generated may come with errors.

What a load of nonsense
What a load of nonsense. Free app??? I could not even get 1 document scanned under the so called free version. I immediately prompts for payment details, which I will not provide, because I know how this works, you provide your details, the application assures you that you will be able to cancel the FREE version, and then deducts the payment a few days before the cancellation dat. So please keep your so called free app. It is a scam
Reply from Scribbr2026-03-26
Hi Mariette,
Thank you for sharing your feedback!
We do offer a genuinely free version of the Plagiarism Checker, which scans your document and provides a plagiarism risk score at no cost. The paid version unlocks the full results, including the specific external sources matched to your text, so you can revise or add references where needed.
Payment details are only requested if you actively click "Unlock Premium" to access the full results. This step is entirely optional, and you will not be prompted to pay simply by using the free scan.
Just to clarify: this is not a subscription. If you choose to upgrade, you are only charged for that one check, and only if you authorize the payment. There are no recurring charges, no free trial that converts, and no deductions after a cancellation date. You are under no obligation to pay anything at any point.
We hope this clears things up, and we're happy to answer any further questions. We've therefore reached out to you privately.
We hope to hear from you soon!
Cheers,
Daphne & the Scribbr team

Best Citation Machine for Graduate Work
I have tried multiple citation machines to do graduate level footnotes. This, by far, is the BEST and easiest to use! Plus, if you create an account, it saves all your citations in 1 place. I have booked marked it and probably won't use a different site.

Thankful
As I finished my dissertation, I knew I needed an editor, but I didn’t know where to begin. I found Scribbr through a basic search, and I’m glad I did. The process was easy, the communication was clear, and I could customize services. The best part was the finished product. Leslie was assigned my paper, and when it was returned, I could tell that she invested herself in it. So many needed corrections were made, and I was thankful. Hopefully I’ll never do another dissertation again, but I will be recommending Scribbr to other students!
