Abstract creation · Tokyo, since 1987
You wrote the paper.
We write the abstract.
Send the finished manuscript and the journal’s instructions; an editor reads the whole paper and writes the abstract from it, to that journal’s guidelines. Written by someone meeting your work for the first time — which is how the reviewer will meet it too.
Sō — the seal of making
A first reader,
on purpose.
You have lived with this paper for months and can no longer see which parts a stranger needs. The editor writing your abstract has read it once, carefully — the same position the journal editor is in. That is the value, not the saved hour.
A reading fee may apply when the abstract is ordered on its own.
How to order
Ordering is simple
1. Complete manuscript
Provide the entire manuscript so our editors have complete source material to create your abstract.
2. Instructions for authors
Provide the full journal name or link to the journal website so we can follow the submission instructions when creating your abstract.
3. How you want it ordered
As an add-on to editing or translation, upload the paper and choose “English abstract writing”. On its own, choose “Other” and write “English abstract writing” in the details.
Other information
Feel free to provide any additional information that you would like us to consider when creating your abstract.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions about abstract creation
Creation starts from the finished manuscript: an editor reads the whole paper and writes the two hundred words. Editing starts from the abstract you have already written and improves it, at a flat 16,500 円. Say which you have and the coordinator will confirm the service before the quote.
Yes. Send the call for abstracts or the submission rules instead of the instructions for authors — the limit and the required structure come from that document either way.
Say so when you order. The editor writes to the limit and the structure the journal sets, so without them there is nothing to write to; the coordinator will tell you what can start now and what has to wait until the journal is chosen.
It depends on the length of the manuscript and is quoted before any work starts. There is no reading fee when the abstract is ordered alongside editing or translation of the same paper — the reading is already paid for.
Yes. Tell us which part is wrong and why, and the editor revises it. That exchange is part of the job, not an extra.
It will sound like your paper, which is not quite the same thing. The editor writes from your manuscript, in your terminology, making the claims your evidence supports — but the sentences are theirs, and that is the point of ordering it. Tell us where the voice is wrong and we will change it.
