Press Release
Profile picture
by eastbridal95
One release read cold, as the journalist deciding whether to run it reads it: the first line checked for whether it carries the news, every claim checked for a source, the quote checked for whether it says anything, and the body checked for the boilerplate and jargon that make an editor stop. The news is in paragraph five. The journalist stopped reading at the end of paragraph one. Priced per release, one payment, nothing recurring.

Grant File
Profile picture
by maritzaleavey
One grant application read cold, as the assessor scoring it reads it: every published criterion checked for whether the application answers it, the budget reconciled against the project plan, and every eligibility requirement checked for evidence. The application is excellent. It answers a question this funder did not ask. Priced per file, one payment, nothing recurring.

Style Guide
Profile picture
by cybercrosstiger
One style guide read cold, as the designer or writer who has to apply it reads it: the everyday cases checked for whether they are covered, every rule checked for whether it is shown and not just stated, and the whole guide read for the contradictions a user will fall into. The guide has a rule for the logo on white. Nobody ever puts the logo on white. Priced per guide, one payment, nothing recurring.

User Manual
Profile picture
by carynpacetti
One manual read cold, as the new user reads it: every step checked against the product as it is now, every task a user needs checked for whether it is covered, the assumptions checked for knowledge the user does not have, and the manual checked for whether the task they came for can be found. Step 4 says click "Save". The button was renamed "Publish" two releases ago, and the user is stuck. Priced per manual, one payment, nothing recurring.
