Follow-Up Service 

Add this service if you want us to add the missing references identified in a core service. You'll provide links or PDFs, and we'll format each reference in APA 7 and alphabetize them within your existing list. We'll also run another citation audit and address any new errors resulting from newly added references. 

APA Reference Review 

Add this service if you want a comprehensive and rigorous review of your reference list. We'll ensure your reference list is perfectly formatted in APA 7. 

Booking a core service, the Follow Up Service, and an APA Reference Review together will ensure your reference list is credible (verified), complete (includes all missing references), and perfectly formatted in APA 7.
