About these tools

They are built and maintained by MyThesis, a thesis printing and hardcover binding service in Botany Downs, Auckland. Where a tool compares providers, every rate links to the provider's own page with the date it was checked, and MyThesis is shown as one option among them. The code is open on GitHub; corrections and additions are welcome.
