For students
Meet the three I'd hire for this semester
Set each one up once. They just run.
They will not write your essays — that is the part you are marked on, and one of them will say so if you ask.
The staff
Hire one, or all three. They hand work to each other, and every one of them is the same object with a different brief and different accounts attached.

two shifts I covered in February
An hour of it, as it actually goes
One Hand, one job, and the part where it stops and asks. Not every shift log starts in the morning, and nothing below leaves the building until you say so.
Ask Dr Okafor for the reference? The draft gives her the deadline, the scheme, and two lines about the project you did with her — so she can say yes without writing it from nothing.
In your words
Things people actually ask
- “Read the module handbook and put every deadline in my calendar with a week's warning.”
- “I covered two shifts in February and was never paid for either. Write to payroll, and keep writing.”
- “Which of these schemes can I still apply to, and which one shuts first?”
Questions
The ones that come up first
Will it write my essays?
No, and it will tell you so if you ask. That is the part you are marked on. What it does is the work around it: sources found and kept with the citation attached, a reading list turned into a week-by-week plan, and application forms filled in from answers you have already written yourself.
I cannot afford another subscription.
Bring the AI subscription you already pay for — Claude, Codex or Grok — and the thinking costs nothing on top. If you do not have one, write to hello@tryhands.com and ask about the student rate before you sign up for anything.
