EduBirdie or adubirdie is a professional essay writing service and academic aid platform that offers paid ghostwriting, essay services, proofreading, and plagiarism checking services.

History

EduBirdie was founded in 2015 by Plan B Services LLC registered under US Law. Besides the international version aimed at the US market, the platform is available in its local variations in the UK and Canada.

Client engagement is estimated at over 500,000 users per month.[1]

EduBirdie is also an employer to college students, offering post-college jobs and ambassador programs for current students.[2]

In 2019, EduBirdie started to operate under a new owner, I3 Technology Ltd to bring the company a new business model. Later that year, EduBirdie partnered with CHADD and donated from every order to help children with ADHD syndrome.[3]

After numerous spelling-related accusations on Twitter, EduBirdie offered to proofread Donald Trump's tweets free of charge to prevent grammatical mistakes.[4]

In 2019, EduBirdie unveiled EduBirdie.com, a service that provides professional support for brides, grooms, and wedding party members writing vows and speeches.[5]

In 2021, EduBirdie started to operate under a new owner, RADIOPLUS EXPERTS Ltd.

During the summer of 2022, EduBirdie launched the Destination Reviewers project. The campaign aimed to attract students who'd share their honest experiences and real feedback on specific places to go and why.[6]

In December 2022, EduBirdie opened the Christmas Moodcatcher position. The purpose was to look for people who would help others catch the spirit of Christmas in a fist and, more importantly, keep it as long as possible.[7] [8] [9]

In spring 2023, together with the Lady Pink team, EduBirdie initiated a notable project to address Academic Burnout and support students facing this widespread challenge with bright graffiti. [10] [11] [12]

In autumn 2023, EduBirdie made considerable research showing that 16% of new graduates spend at least six months to find a job.[13] [14]

During November-December 2023, EduBirdie surveyed 2,000 young people in the US on how social media has shaped their career choices and affected their professional lives. The results showed that as much as social media can help young people to succeed, it can also hinder their future if misused.[15] [16]

Work process

Structure

EduBirdie connects users with writers through an auction process, where writers bid on the proposals available. Unlike the majority of freelance platforms, each writer is chosen and hired directly by the company through an internal multi-step process:

Tools

One of the company's work areas is the development of free tools for different types of students. They include:

Reception

Exam Cheating Controversy

In 2018, EduBirdie promoted itself through social media influencers and YouTubers which led to an investigation conducted by BBC that resulted in thousands of videos being removed from YouTube which were promoting EduBirdie and cheating. It was done over an academic aid policy of YouTube where students pay to get help in academic related tasks which is considered as cheating.[19] [20] [21] As per BBC those videos earned a total of 700 million views and almost 250 channels who were promoting homework cheating.[22] [23] [24]

In response to the BBC, a company representative claims that EduBirdie "does not tolerate plagiarism" and is a legal service.[25]

In 2020, EdSurge reported that EduBirdie is part of a new larger industry of contract cheaters, where sites like EduBirdie connect clients with freelance writers for cheating activities.[26]
