Our story

PerfectIt is designed for professionals who work with words by professionals who work with words.

Our story began with the writing, reviewing, and endless checking of reports and proposals that work in consultancy requires. After eight years of checking text manually, Daniel Heuman realized there must be a better approach. He set out to create a tool that could help professionals to edit faster and better, but would still let you write your way. After years of development and testing, Daniel launched PerfectIt in March 2009.

Since then, PerfectIt has grown, becoming more powerful and sophisticated. Its development has been driven by feedback from editors and proofreaders from professional societies worldwide. In addition to checking consistency, editors helped to add styles that extended PerfectIt’s functionality. As editors improved the product, its market grew to include science writers, lawyers, engineers, marketers, proposal writers, technical writers, translators and more.
