STEM Expert Check™ · Tokyo, since 1987
AI drafted it.
A specialist has to sign it.
A STEM specialist reviews AI-generated academic text for grammar, structure, tone and fit with the audience you name — then puts a human-check certificate on it. Fast and inexpensive by design. It is not a full editing service.
Sen — the specialist
“The expert review made sure my content matched my research goals and reached a scientific audience — the draft went from AI output to accurate academic writing.”
Dr Tanaka

Read this before you send a file
This service may use AI tools, and text processed by them can be passed to third parties. Do not include personal or confidential information in a document sent for STEM Expert Check. If your text contains either, use one of the human-only editing services instead — and if we judge that a fuller editorial pass is needed, we will say so and point you to it.
The NDA, ISO 9001 and Privacy Mark commitments apply to every Forte service. This notice is about which tools touch the text, not about who is accountable for it.
Scope
What the check does, and what it does not
This is a language and fit review of an AI draft, priced accordingly. It is not the editorial pass that English Editing gives you, and it does not pretend to be.
The check includes
- Grammar, spelling, punctuation and word choice
- Sentence structure, built for AI-generated text
- Revision against the purpose, audience and tone you specify
- Comments from the editor on what was changed
- A human-check certificate with the job
The check does not
- Reach into the argument or its development
- Restructure sections, or rewrite for logical flow
- Verify facts, data or citations produced by the model
- Accept text containing personal or confidential information
- Replace a full editorial pass — see English Editing

The certificate says a human specialist read the text. It does not say the science was verified — that judgement stays with the authors.
PAT
Three answers that change the whole revision
Before the specialist starts, you state the purpose, the audience and the tone. The same paragraph is revised differently for a conference talk, a proposal to corporate management and a blog post for the public — PAT is how you tell us which one you are writing.
PPurpose
What the text is for: publication, a funding decision, a lecture, a public explainer.
e.g. “Conference presentation” keeps sentences short enough to be said out loud.
AAudience
Who reads it: specialists in your field, a review panel, management, the general public.
e.g. “Corporate management” moves the conclusion up and cuts the method detail.
TTone
How it should sound: formal academic, plain and direct, persuasive.
e.g. “General public” replaces terminology with the nearest honest plain word.
Not sure what to choose? Say so in the order and the specialist will pick the closest fit and tell you which one they used — PAT is a way to be specific, not another form to get wrong.

Frequently asked
Questions about the check
A model produces fluent text, not necessarily accurate or appropriate text: it invents citations, flattens terminology and misjudges what a given audience already knows. A STEM specialist reads it as a reader in your field would, and says what changed and why.
You send the draft with your three PAT answers. A specialist in the subject area revises the language and structure against them, leaves comments on what was changed, and the job comes back with a human-check certificate.
AI-generated research papers, abstracts, scholarly presentations and other academic writing — provided the text contains nothing personal or confidential.
Purpose, Audience and Tone: three answers that decide how the same paragraph is revised. A conference talk, a proposal to management and a public explainer need different sentences from the same content.
The content stays the same; the revision does not. For an academic conference the specialist shortens sentences so they can be spoken; for a proposal to corporate management they move the conclusion to the front and cut method detail; for a blog post they replace terminology with the nearest honest plain word.
No — not to this service. It may use AI tools, and text processed by them can be passed to third parties. If your document contains personal or confidential information, use one of the human-only editing services instead.
