Commissioning
How it works
We start by agreeing the direction of the work. You review the plan before drafting begins, then approve each agreed stage as the project progresses.
- 01
Submit your brief
Describe the assignment in your own words — topic, requirements, deadline, and optional supporting PDFs (up to five files or one ZIP) — so we can quote accurately.
- 02
Receive a fixed quotation
See the complete scope, supporting materials, target dates, and a category-based schedule of two to five consultations.
- 03
Review your project plan
Before work on incremental outputs begins, review the proposed title, synopsis, outline, and bibliography. Accept it or request changes before Consultation 1 can be booked.
- 04
Approve before the next payment
Each consultation follows book → prepare → review. The next consultation stays locked until you accept the previous output; included corrections are redelivered for review.
Practice
The atelier
Essay Factory is a small consultation practice. Every brief is read personally and matched to a specialist in your field. Quotes reflect complexity, not a catalogue of packages. Each paid consultation combines research, drafting, and editorial judgment to produce a defined document output. You review and accept each output before the next consultation becomes bookable.
Commissions are handled by human specialists — research, writing, and editorial review — not generated, templated, or recycled.
Promises
Our standards
Staged payments, transparent milestones, and clear limits on what we do — and what we do not.
Responsible use
Strong caveat: Essay Factory provides research, drafting, and editorial consultations with prepared document outputs. We do not encourage or facilitate breaking academic, institutional, or legal rules. You alone know your obligations and decide what to do with the output. If your rules prohibit submitting third-party writing as your own, do not use our outputs that way. Full terms apply when you submit a brief.
See also our Terms of service.
Assistance, not rule-breaking
We provide research, drafting, and editorial consultation with document outputs. We do not help you break institutional or legal rules — you decide how to use each output within your own obligations.
Discretion
Your brief and identity are handled confidentially. We do not share client work or details.
Human specialists
Every commission is written and reviewed by people — not AI output, not templates, not recycled work.
Foundation before production
You approve the structure, direction, and provisional sources before the paid production stages begin.
Approval before the next payment
Every payment after the Foundation activation fee is unlocked only after you review and accept the previous contracted deliverable.
Contracted supporting materials
PDFs included with your brief are hashed into the quoted contract. Later uploads stay evidence-only until an administrator accepts a recorded addendum.
Compliance revision
One included revision if the draft misses the agreed brief or approved outline. Scope changes may incur a fee.
Money-back for our breach
If we miss an agreed deadline or fail to meet the brief as quoted (after the included revision where applicable), you receive a full refund. Academic outcomes are not refund grounds.

Clarity
Questions
Common questions about scope, responsible use, commissioning, confidentiality, and revisions.
- What exactly are you selling?
- A consultation service: each paid consultation applies human research, drafting, and editorial judgment to produce the document output defined in your quotation. We are not selling a way around your institution’s rules, a guaranteed grade, or submission on your behalf.
- Is this meant to break academic rules?
- No. The purpose is assistance — research and drafting upon request. You are responsible for using the output lawfully and in line with your institution’s policies. We cannot know your local rules; you can.
- Which subjects do you cover?
- Law, social sciences, humanities, public policy, political science, and international relations. We do not currently accept STEM, natural sciences, mathematics, or engineering briefs.
- How long does a quote take?
- Typically within one business day after a complete brief. Complex or rush commissions may take slightly longer — we will confirm by email.
- What is the Foundation?
- After the Foundation activation fee, we send a title, synopsis, provisional outline, and bibliography. You approve or request changes before Consultation 1 becomes bookable.
- Do I pay for later work before seeing progress?
- No later consultation is unlocked in advance. Each paid consultation produces an output for your review, and the next consultation becomes bookable only after you accept that output.
- Can I upload rubrics or assignment PDFs?
- Yes. Add up to five PDFs or one ZIP (containing up to five PDFs) with your brief or later requests. Quote-stage files are included in your fixed quotation and frozen into the contract manifest. Materials uploaded after the quote require an accepted addendum before they change scope or price.
- What if the draft misses the brief?
- One compliance revision is included against the agreed brief and approved outline. Scope changes after approval may incur a fee. Grades or examiner comments are not compliance failures.
- Is my work confidential?
- Briefs and identity are not shared. See our Privacy Policy for how data is stored and used. Privacy Policy
- I did not get my confirmation email
- Check spam and promotions folders, wait a few minutes, and try a personal address if a university filter blocks automated mail. Still stuck? Email info@essayfactory.net and we will help you activate your account.
- What about refunds?
- Full refund if we miss an agreed deadline without extension, or if after the included revision the draft still materially fails the agreed brief and outline. No refund for change of mind after outline work begins, or for academic outcomes. See Terms for detail.
