Systematic Literature Review Support
Building a literature review that argues where the field agrees and disagrees, not one that lists what other researchers found.
A literature review has one job a summary does not: to position your research inside an existing conversation, not next to it. This service supports that positioning directly, whether the review is systematic (with a defined search protocol) or narrative.
What's Included- Search strategy design: databases, search terms, and inclusion or exclusion criteria
- Source evaluation for currency, credibility, and relevance to your specific research question
- Structuring the review around argument and synthesis, not a source by source summary
- Identifying the specific gap in the existing literature that your research is positioned to address
- A student whose draft review reads as a list of separate summaries rather than an argument
- Anyone starting a systematic review who needs a defensible search protocol from the outset
- A researcher who has the sources but is struggling to synthesise them into a single argument
Stage 03 · Literature Review & Synthesis
We teach and support the synthesis process; we do not write the review’s argument for you to submit as your own. The critical position taken in the review is yours.
Pricing is set at intake, against the specific scope of what you need. We do not quote publicly, because a single editing pass and a full length manuscript review carry very different scopes.
