Purpose & academic use

MonoEd helps you with the parts of a final year project that slow most students down: finding relevant literature, keeping five chapters consistent, and formatting citations. That leaves you more time to understand your topic, collect your data and do the analysis properly.

It is not a substitute for learning your material, carrying out your study, or defending your work in front of your supervisor and examiners.

A chapter is only as honest as its data, so MonoEd leaves a clear gap wherever it would otherwise have to guess:

• Chapter 3: where you haven't decided a detail yet, such as your sample size, we propose a sensible one and explain why, written as your plan so you can change it. We never make up facts such as a population count, an approval or a pilot result.
• Chapter 4: tables show [n] and [%] until you add your real figures, either by filling the tables or by pasting your results or SPSS output. Anything you don't supply becomes [DATA REQUIRED], never a made-up number.
• References: only real, published papers found during research are cited. If a paper can't be found, it isn't cited.

1. You describe your project: topic, institution, department and a few related details.
2. Research runs first. MonoEd finds 20 to 25 real, published papers on your topic, so every chapter is built on sources you can check.
3. Chapters 1 to 5 are drafted from your topic and those sources. For Chapters 3 and 4, you supply your methodology details and your results.
4. You review and edit each chapter. When your supervisor returns corrections, Supervisor Fix Mode rewrites only the parts they flagged and shows you each change before you accept it.
5. You export to Word and make your defence slides once you are happy with it.

• Your data and results: surveys, experiments, tests, field work or case material, collected the way your department requires.
• Accuracy and honesty of the final document, including every claim you submit under your name.
• Understanding your project well enough to handle corrections, seminars and your defence.
• Following your institution's rules on AI use, plagiarism and submission format.

Every citation comes from a paper found during research and is formatted in APA (author and year in brackets), IEEE (numbered, e.g. [1]), MLA (author and page) or Chicago (superscript notes). Each reference has its authors, year and title, with a DOI or link where one exists. Still open the sources you rely on most, confirm each entry, and match your department's exact style guide before you submit.

Some institutions check work with AI detectors such as Turnitin. MonoEd does not promise that a draft will pass them, and no tool honestly can: detectors change often, and they sometimes flag writing that people wrote themselves.

What makes a project yours is what you put into it:

• your own data, results and interpretation;
• your supervisor's corrections, worked through chapter by chapter;
• rewriting the draft in your own words and voice;
• knowing it well enough to explain any part of it at your defence.

If you are unsure what your department allows, ask your supervisor before you submit.

• Your projects are linked to your account. They are not published or shared with other students.
• Free drafts are deleted after 45 days and unlocked projects after 180 days, so download your work before then.
• After a project is deleted, we keep only a short record of its topic, department and institution to improve MonoEd. Your chapters, references and data are removed.
• You can delete a project yourself at any time from your dashboard.
