Who We Help
Pubrica supports eight groups of clients: researchers and authors, students, physicians, universities, pharma and biotech companies, medical device manufacturers, publishers, and education and assessment providers. Every group has access to the same catalogue of editing, writing, statistics, regulatory and publication services. What differs is the standard the work must meet, who reads the finished document, and whether the price is published or quoted. Choose the page that describes you to see the services most relevant to your work.
- Two pricing models: published prices for individual authors, and scoped quotations for organisations
- The same experts for every client — work is assigned by subject rather than by account size
- A free first step for every service, carried out on your own document before you commit
- Work built to your required standard, whether that standard is set by a journal, a regulator, a notified body, a payer or an awarding body
- If no audience page fits, use the service menu, which is organised by type of work and offers the same services

Our Services
Services for Each Audience
The audiences fall into two groups: authors publishing their own work, and organisations whose work is assessed by a regulator, notified body, payer or awarding body.
Publishing your own workMost desk rejections result from an unmet reporting guideline or a claim the data does not support, rather than from the English.
Editing limits for thesesExaminers assume the argument is the student’s own. We identify weak arguments and leave the revision to the student.
Working around clinical timeWe work from notes, a dictation or a twenty-minute call, so a finished draft is not required.
Working to your standardsMost cores are limited by capacity rather than willingness. Work built to their conventions can be supported by the core afterwards.
Consistency across documentsWhen documents are split across suppliers, the same endpoint can be described in different ways, and assessors notice the inconsistency.
Device-specific regulationTreating device regulation as a variant of pharma regulation causes most of the deficiencies notified bodies raise.
Editorial decisions stay with youYour editors make all editorial decisions. We provide capacity and do not take over the running of the journal.
Psychometric services sold separatelyMost providers need two of the six psychometric services in a year, so each service can be purchased on its own.
Samples are illustrative and anonymised. Hover any one of them to play it again.
Compliance and Standards
Standards We Apply Across All Audiences
Each audience answers to different standards, and for every one we work to the version currently in force.
ICMJE and COPE (for anything going to a journal)
Authorship criteria, declarations, and the rule that editing and writing support is acknowledged rather than credited as authorship.
ICH, MDR and IVDR (for anything going to a regulator)
We work to the version in force rather than the version a template was built on, and we name the version used in the document.
Accessibility (for anything published digitally)
Conformance is evidenced with a report rather than asserted, which institutional buyers increasingly require in procurement.
Quality management (cert. H3CR9TCU20251212INDQM10N)
Our certified quality system governs how work is run, recorded and released.
How It Works
How a Project Works
Every project follows the same four steps. The standard the work is held to depends on your audience.
A free first step
A sample edit, guideline check, feasibility assessment or gap analysis carried out on your own material.
Scope and quotation
We recommend the service you need, and we tell you when a less expensive option is sufficient.
Delivery of the work
Work is assigned by subject and built to the standard your destination sets, with the version named.
Handover of files
Code, models, search strategies and working documents are handed over so you can meet later deadlines independently.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
If your question is not answered here, ask an expert — no quote is required.
Use the service menu, which is organised by type of work. It offers the same services, and many clients prefer it.
The audience pages are a shortcut for clients who know which group they belong to. They do not replace the service catalogue.
This is common. For example, a clinician-researcher at a university running an investigator-initiated trial belongs to four of these groups.
Start with the page that best describes your current piece of work. The services are the same whichever page you choose.
Because some services have a unit and some do not. Editing has a per-word rate. An HTA dossier or a clinical evaluation report does not, and publishing a number for one would be misleading.
Where a price is published, it is a starting price with its scope stated beside it.
Yes. One team assigns work by subject: a cardiology trial goes to a specialist familiar with the relevant CONSORT extension, and a device file goes to a specialist who works to MDR.
Work is assigned by subject rather than by account size, which is the part that matters to a single author.
