You are not behind. You are at a stage.
Every stage has a defined next step. Tell us three things and we will show you yours — in your university's own words, before you pay us anything.

Alongside the main sequence — these do not wait their turn
Where are you stuck? Pick the stage that matches your situation. Nothing is scored, nothing is saved, and you do not need an account. If you are between two stages, pick the later one — it is easier to step back than to skip ahead. Want a more precise reading? Take the Research Health Check — ten questions, two minutes.
What your university asks for
Not what universities generally ask for. Ordinances differ, and they change. Every page cites its source document and shows the date we last checked it — and tells you plainly whether we checked it ourselves or only linked the official source.
A named person read the current ordinance and confirmed it. Dated. If the check lapses, we take the claim down rather than leave it standing. All Gujarat institutions.
Structure mapped and the official document linked, but not independently verified by us. Confirm with your department before you act on it. Institutions outside Gujarat, as we expand.

How to report it
- Always free
Cronbach's alpha interpreter
Enter your alpha and item count. Get the interpretation, the caveats, and how to report it in a thesis chapter.
S8 · S10 - Always free
Model fit index checker
CFI, TLI, RMSEA and SRMR against the cut-offs your examiners will use — and what to do when one index disagrees with the others.
S10 - Always free
Predatory journal red-flag scorer
Twelve checks against a journal's website and its claimed indexing. Run it before you pay any submission fee.
P1
Eleven tools that check your work. None that write it.
Every one returns critique, retrieval or structure. If a tool here produced text you could paste into a chapter, it would be doing your doctorate — and an examiner would eventually notice. You can export a dated record of exactly what you used, to show your guide or attach to a submission.
- Checks · does not write
Hypothesis checker
You write the hypotheses. It checks direction, testability, falsifiability, whether your variables line up, and which statistical test actually matches.
S6 - Checks · does not write
Questionnaire checker
Item-level diagnostics on wording and scales — and first, a search for a published validated instrument you should be citing instead.
S8 - Retrieves · does not draft
Literature navigator
Finds, organises and summarises real retrieved sources. It will not draft your review, and it never invents a reference.
S3 - Explains · does not narrate
Statistical advisor
Test selection, assumption checks, and what your output actually means. Writing the results chapter stays with you.
S10
Fourteen templates, free
The documents a doctorate actually requires — the right sections in the right order, with notes on what each must establish. No account, no email, no limit.
-
Always free
Synopsis format
Section order, headings and word-limit guidance following the international research format read with UGC and AICTE requirements.
DOCX · S4 -
Always free
Data collection log
Dates, approaches, refusals and exclusions. The document that saves your methods chapter, and cannot be reconstructed later.
XLSX · S9 -
Always free
DRC presentation
Slide structure that answers the three questions every committee asks, in the order they ask them.
PPTX · S5 -
Always free
Viva preparation sheet
Every methodological decision you made, with room to write the defence of each.
DOCX · S14
Learn the method. The software comes second.
Knowing how to run a test is not the same as knowing which test to run, or why. Courses teach the reasoning first and the tool afterwards, because the tool changes every few years and the reasoning does not.
Research Methodology
Eight weeks. The full design chain from question to analysis plan.
Certificate on completionStructural Equation Modelling
Six weeks, taught in both AMOS and SmartPLS so you can choose on the merits.
Certificate on completionQualitative Analysis
Five weeks. Thematic analysis and coding, with NVivo as the tool rather than the subject.
Certificate on completionPublishing from a Thesis
Four weeks. Turning chapters into papers that survive review.
Certificate on completion
The things nobody explains on day one
Short animated walkthroughs of the parts of a doctorate that most often go wrong. Free, no account, and they run in your browser.
Research that earns confidence
Scientific methodology, constrained AI assistance, statistical expertise and structured learning — combined to support work that holds up under examination.

We do not take shortcuts. We build researchers. Integrity, quality and independence — with the full policy published in writing, so your supervisor can read it too.
And if you would rather not do it yourself
Everything above is free and stays free. These are the things people ask us to take on instead. Every job is quoted on its own scope — and we will point you to the free tool when that solves it.

How we price, and what you will never be surprised by
We do not publish a fixed rate card, because the work genuinely differs. A dataset of 180 responses and four tests is not the same job as 2,000 responses and a structural model, and pretending otherwise would mean overcharging the first to cover the second. What we will not do is leave you guessing.
- 01
What moves the price is listed above. Sample size, number of tests, manuscript length, revision rounds. Nothing hidden, nothing discovered later.
- 02
You get a written quote before any work starts. One figure, inclusive of taxes. No deposit is taken to produce it.
- 03
The quote does not move unless the scope does. If your scope changes, we re-quote in writing and you decide. We do not invoice a difference you did not agree.
- 04
Nothing is added that you did not ask for. No bundled extras, no automatic retainers, no charges appearing at the end.
- 05
We point you to the free option first. If the work is something you can do yourself with a free tool on this site, we will say so and point you at it.
Send your synopsis, dataset or manuscript on WhatsApp and you will get a scope and a figure back — usually the same working day, and at no cost.
