When submitting an article or research paper, it is crucial to do in-depth language and consistency checks to ensure that it is free of grammar, language, and style errors. Typographical errors can be caught with a spell checker, but consistency issues are a critical proofreading error that are often overlooked. Consistent writing not only improves readability, but also allows journal editors, peer reviewers, and readers to navigate through your paper smoothly and focus on the content without cosmetic distractions.
Traditionally, consistency checks are a common proofreading practice, performed manually by copywriters and editors. Now, researchers can use Paperpal to run an automated Consistency Check specifically built to detect stylistic inconsistencies found in research writing. This innovative addition to the Paperpal’s suite of features uses an advanced NLP algorithm to instantly find inconsistencies and errors in your academic writing, which helps you become more efficient while writing.

Consistency in the presentation of word forms and spelling
The English language is dynamic and includes different ways of writing the same word (non-adhesive vs nonadhesive / co-operation vs cooperation/ towards vs toward in American English / January vs Jan.). Paperpal’s Consistency Check can now assist you with identifying these issues in your writing in minutes to ensure consistency across your academic writing. By checking for and avoiding such issues, you can quickly deliver an elegantly written paper that also reflects your attention to detail, which is something most top journal editors are looking for.
Consistency in presentation of number and statistics
Mathematical equations can be represented in different formats in text (9%-10% vs 9-10% / 3°C vs 6 °C / p=0.05 vs P=0.01), all of which may be correct. Paperpal’s new Consistency Check is tailored to identify and highlight all such formatting inconsistencies to improve overall readability and comprehension.
