Attempted murder accusations
My "experience" is only that I was searching online for editing work, and after finding Capstone, came across a piece in the Guardian detailing love-trial related attempted murder accusations about Lines, who was arrested last November (I can't include links here, but if you search her name on the Guardian site, you'll find the piece, and there seems to be much more of the same in the Australian press).
Their email addresses bounce, and their phone number seems to be dead. It's a bit strange that the site is still up! If any of the refugees from Capstone - Lines's former colleagues - happen to see this thread, it would be useful to know if they've set up under another name or something.
No longer in business
As far as I can see Capstone Editing is no longer in business. I had arranged to prepay for editing work with expiring funding. I have paid close to $3000 for thesis editing and have been unable to contact them by any methods listed on their website. Thesis is due now in less than two months, and I have no other funding available for editing.
Capstone Editing review
Capstone Editing review
I have used Capstone Editing for my doctorate thesis with extremely satisfying results. As a first-time user of an editing service communications with the editing managers were excellent. I had several questions regarding how the editing process works which were addressed, and I have learnt so much from the editor’s writing suggestions which will hold me in good stead as I continue with my post doctorate writing and endeavors.
Capstone Editing has qualified editors according to my field. Provide input to make sentences more expressive and engaging. It also organizes writing automatically according to APA 7.
I am an international student in Australia, currently pursuing my PhD. English is not my native language, and writing in it with more expressive sentences has been quite challenging for me. Fortunately, Capstone Editing edited my work effectively, offering valuable suggestions for using more suitable words. They also helped me organize my writing according to APA 7 guidelines. I highly recommend Capstone Editing to fellow students, especially international students.
Trust in Capstone Editing well founded
Capstone Editing completed alleviated the task of PhD thesis editing. It was a relief to outsource this significant administrative function that is both time and labour intensive - and to have a finished product I am confident to submit. My trust in Capstone's expertise has been well-founded.

Capstone That Made Me Happy :)
I used its sub-editing services for my PhD thesis years ago. While you may have confidence in your academic English skills, I still highly recommend using their services. Firstly, the website is incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate. The editors are professionals in your field, and they offer valuable suggestions to enhance clarity while providing alternative word choices for you to consider. The edited manuscript is equipped with tracking features, allowing you to review the revisions and recommendations made to strengthen your statements. The services are already reasonably fast at their standard rate, but if you require urgent assistance, you have the option to pay a little extra for expedited services. One important note: Service fees are calculated based on word counts, so I recommend removing any sections you don't want to be edited before submitting your work.
Amazing Support!
This the first time I have used Capstone which was recommended by my lecturer and I have been so impressed with the professionalism, support and work ethics received from my thesis.
The editing from Capstone Editing was beyond expectation!
The editing from Capstone Editing was far beyond my expectation. The attention to detail was incredible, especially for the price I was charged. This service turned my writing into a profession piece of literature that I can be proud of and confident to publish.
Successful PhD Thesis submission with nil edits
The extra editing service was gold for me when I was in my final stages of my Thesis. The editor was thoroughly pedantic and was not only editing for syntax, understanding and spelling but also the suggested rearranging chapters for better flow. Taking five seperate chapters and making into one was also a big task for the formatting side of things and with over 60 appendix that had to be linked and renumbered - including complex tables, labelling diagrams in the correct format. My final thesis went to two International reviewers and both recommended immediate Award with only one word change - vicariously instead of vivaciously. I graduated my Phd four days after the thesis reviewer's comments received. Big thanks to the meticulously structured comments, suggestions, formatting, references into to correct formatting which for those who understand this is a complex and extremely time consuming task. All along the way through my thesis I utilised Capstones editing services. My successful Phd submission was in part due to the exemplary editing within the Capstone team. Bravo and thank-you.
Capstone Editing recently helped me with edits of my dissertation.
Capstone Editing recently helped me edit my PhD thesis. As a non-native speaker, my writing needed to be polished and corrected at times. I discovered Capstone Editing services through the recommendations of two of my friends, both of whom used this editing service for their PhD dissertations. The editors did an excellent job, and I highly recommend their services.

Indigenous editing.
I needed to have several Chapters (That contained Indigenous characters) reviewed. As a non-indigenous fictional writer it is important to me to be respectful, accurate and non-offensive prior to releasing my first debut novel.
Capstone editing Services gave me a competitive quote, competitive price ,quick turn around and a editor proficient in Indigenous studies.
Their web page was easy to use and a myriad of services from Thesis, academic editing to corporate government editing. I even enrolled in a 6 week course for editing skills with indefinite access for only $197. The website contains useful Blogs and scholarship opportunities. Amazing.With an upfront quote and quick turnaround I would recommend to first time novelists to seasoned Authors.

PhD Dissertation successfully accepted after only minor amendments!
I used Melissa, Bec and Zac and Capstone Editing to do a final pass over my PhD Dissertation following the initial draft submission. This was such a nerve wracking time as this was the culmination of 10 years of work.
I was able to speak to them about what I wanted to achieve, and we were able to collaborate in real time over Google Sheets to make sure we addressed all the reviewers concerns.
They were extremely accomodating when editing required more time than expected, they even provided a letter for me to provide my supervisor explaining the delay and requesting an extension to complete the editing work without my asking.
It was such a successful edit that there were no other amendments required after this process!
Worth every penny. Thanks guys!
Excellent service- comprehensive and timely
