Pricing

One flat price per TypoSweep, based on the length of your manuscript. A human proofreader runs $700 to $2,500, which puts a careful read out of reach for a lot of authors. This tool is for them.

Novella / short novel up to 60,000 $29
Novel 60,001–120,000 $39
Long novel 120,001–180,000 $59
Epic 180,001–240,000 $79
Long epic 240,001–300,000 $109
Doorstopper 300,001–350,000 $139

What's included

Every TypoSweep, at every tier, includes:

How word count is counted

TypoSweep counts (and scans) everything in your .docx: your main text, front matter (title page, dedication, copyright), back matter (acknowledgments, "also by this author"), and any running page headers or footers. A typo in your dedication is still a typo. You'll see your exact word count after the free preview, before you pay. The tier that matches that count is the price you'll be charged.

Manuscripts over 350,000 words

Manuscripts longer than 350,000 words aren't supported through the self-serve checkout yet, but most still run cleanly. Email hello@typosweep.com with your word count and I'll quote you directly.

Free preview, no card required

The free TypoSweep on about 5,000 words sampled from across your manuscript is genuinely free. You only pay once you've seen what TypoSweep would catch and decided you want the rest of your manuscript scanned. Try the preview.
