Your online guide to grammar, punctuation, usage, and style

Doxical provides business and technical writers with writing tools and services. At the heart of our service is the Doxical Style Guide: a free and comprehensive guide to the rules and conventions of the English language. Doxical also provides training courses and editorial services that are tailored to the mining, energy markets, IT, and finance industries.

Doxical Writing Improvement Program

There's no magic bullet when it comes to learning to write clearly, concisely, and effectively. Attending a writing course, on its own, doesn't work. The solution is to provide writers with reliable information, essential skills, and expert feedback. Doxical does this through a three-part, integrated program: the Doxical Writing Improvement Program.

The key components that make up the core of the Doxical Writing Improvement Program are:

Doxical Style Guide A free, online, and comprehensive guide to the written English language.
Doxical Training Half-day courses designed to develop the skills essential to effective writing.
Doxical Auditing Program Provides writers with regular and expert feedback on their writing.

These three core components can be augmented, as required, with other services, such as the mentoring program, editorial services, and other advisory services. Find out more...

Who should use Doxical?

Doxical is especially designed for business professionals, engineers, scientists, and other technical writers. It is intended for writers of International English (Oxford) and Australian English (Macquarie). In addition to the general business edition, industry-specific editions are available for mining, energy markets, IT, and finance.

Doxical is also an ideal companion for administrative and managerial staff, consultants, and other service providers. Doxical provides non-technical writers with a quick reference to industry jargon, the meaning of symbols and units of measurement, and the conventions of formatting technical terms.
