Rewritn
Version reader-agreement-2026-10
A student pays $30 for one essay review. You keep $15. What they are buying is a person who has been through admissions reading their draft and telling them what they think: inline comments on the text, a written note, and a rubric grade.
The money is held until 72 hours after you return the review, or until the student releases it early. It is not released for work that was never delivered.
Nothing generated for you may be sent as your review. You may not hand the student generated words as though they were yours. That is the line, and it is about what you submitted, not about what you opened.
The delivery is what is checked, so the check happens when you press send rather than afterwards. A review made of generated text does not reach the student at all.
When you send a review, Rewritn compares the words you wrote (your note, your rubric comments, your inline comments) against the assist that was generated for that essay. It measures how much of the assist’s phrasing appears in your review, in runs of five words or more. At 80% or above the delivery is refused: the student is not sent it, no money moves, the order stays yours, and everything you wrote is still on the screen. You rewrite it in your own words and send it again.
A refused delivery is not a strike. Nothing is recorded against you for it and nothing is taken away.
Quoting the student’s own sentences back at them does not count against you; those are compared out. Reaching the same conclusion as the assist in your own words does not count against you either. Reproducing its sentences does.
A review also has to point at the draft. Before a delivery goes through, at least 3 of your inline comments have to be anchored to a highlighted span of the student’s text, a span of at least 4 characters, carrying at least 40 characters of your own writing. Several notes on the same span count once, so the short way through is to read three parts of the essay.
Two other things are recorded as strikes after a delivery. If an essay of 250 words or more is returned with less than 1.5x the minimum reading time on it, that is a strike. If more than 6 reviews are returned in an hour, or more than 20 in a day, that is a strike.
The reading clock is wall-clock: it credits at most the time that has actually passed while the essay was open in front of you, and it cannot be set from your browser.
Strikes carry points. Reading time and delivery rate are 1 point each. A delivered review found to reproduce the assist is 3 points; the check above is meant to stop that before it is sent, and this is what is left for a delivery that did not come through it. At 3 points inside 180 days your listing is suspended: you stop appearing in browse and nobody can buy from you.
A strike does not take back a review you already delivered and does not take back money already earned. It stops the next sale.
You can see every strike on your own account, with the numbers it was based on, on your reader page. If you think one is wrong, that page is the record to argue from.
Before you can be bought from, three things have to be true: you have confirmed a current .edu address, you have submitted a writing sample, and a person at Rewritn has read both and approved you.
The sample is run through an AI-detection service. The score is one input a human reads; it is not the decision, and a score on its own has never approved or rejected anybody.
If you are rejected you are told why, in a sentence, and you can fix the thing named and apply again.
That the reviews you deliver are yours: your reading, your judgement, your words.
That the .edu address you confirmed is one you currently hold.
That you will not contact students outside Rewritn to arrange work off the platform. Messages are scanned for contact details before and after an order, and they will keep being scanned.
