Proofreading is a slow and careful reading to search for surface errors in a document, whereas for editing, the whole content will be run through to check on the clarity and preciseness. It is important to proofread in order for a document to be error-free. Nowadays, there are various proofreading services and software on the internet. However, the rates are expensive for undergraduate students, and the software does not provide accurate suggestions. This project aims to provide cost-friendly proofreading service, identify and correct errors, as well as analyse the errors found. The result shows that sentence construction is the most common error from all of the academic documents provided by the clients.
