Because these programs are just that—programs. They lack the human touch that ensures your writing stands out, capturing your unique voice rather than blending into everything else on the web.
While AI tools like Grammarly and ChatGPT help catch simple errors, there are several reasons to invest in a professional editor and proofreader.
Unlike AI, a professional editor brings true insight and an understanding of the full context, tone and nuance of your work. They ensure your words convey the intended impact, preserving your natural voice while enhancing clarity and style. While AI may make your work sound generic, an editor keeps your personality intact, strengthening the uniqueness of your voice.
Editors also go beyond simple grammar. They improve the flow, organisation, and readability of your writing, creating coherence that AI tools can’t replicate. Trained in catching context-specific subtleties and complex expressions, editors ensure the highest accuracy, which AI often misses.
A professional editor provides personalised feedback that AI can’t, guiding you on language, tone, and storytelling to help you grow as a writer. And when it comes to professional impact, credibility is essential. Editors bring expertise in various formats and styles, like APA and Chicago, giving your work a polished, publication-ready finish.
In short, while AI tools are helpful, they work best alongside human expertise. A professional editor offers the nuance, insight, and polish that no program can fully match, making them invaluable in bringing out the very best in your writing.

Ever since I was a child, I’ve been in love with books and words. My passion for language started early—I used to correct my grandmother’s and mother’s shopping lists, to their annoyance!
Over time, that love evolved into a career dedicated to helping others tell their stories with clarity and confidence.
One of my favourite words is “Abracadabra”, said to be derived from phrases in Hebrew that mean "I will create as I speak" or Aramaic "I create like the word."
