How Can AI & Plagiarism Checker Help Me?
AI & Plagiarism Checker helps you spot potential content issues faster and easier, which allows you to improve quality and maintain credibility online.
Why is this important?
First, low-quality content—especially plagiarism—can damage your audience’s trust. It may also rank poorly in search, which reduces your brand’s visibility. Plagiarism may also result in penalties, such as being removed from Google search results.
Second, as generative AI becomes more prevalent online, consistently posting high-quality, authentic content can help you stand out. Especially if you're working with external writers, you'll need a toolkit to help with AI detection.
With AI & Plagiarism Checker, you can spot writing that was obviously generated using an AI tool, and catch other readability issues that could damage reader engagement.

How To Analyze Text with AI & Plagiarism Checker
Check any text for plagiarism and other errors in just a few clicks.
Analyzing Plain Text
Navigate to the Text tab and effortlessly check any piece of text for plagiarism and errors. Just copy and paste a minimum of 50 words into the text box, and click "Check text" to initiate the analysis process.
The tool will automatically process the text and present the results in a clear and concise report.
Analyzing Web Pages
In the URLs tab, streamline the analysis process by providing one or more URLs of the web pages you want to check. The tool will automatically locate and analyze the text, eliminating the need for manual copying and pasting.
This feature is especially handy for conducting bulk checks on multiple pages simultaneously.
Auto Mode
Explore the Auto tab for a combination of text and URL inputs. If 20% or more of the text consists of URLs, it will be identified as URLs input. For text containing less than 20% URLs, it will be recognized as plain text.
This feature ensures a versatile analysis experience, accommodating various input scenarios with ease.
How To Read the Report
Once you scan a text, AI & Plagiarism Checker will show you a report containing its findings. You can access this again at any time in the “Reports history” tab.
At the top of the page is the report header, containing:
- The report name (or first line of text), date, and time
- The complete text analyzed (click “Show text” on the right to reveal)
- The Summary widget
From left to right, the Summary widget contains:
- Plagiarism score: the percentage of text believed to be plagiarized
- AI Generated score: the percentage of text believed to be generated by an AI tool
- Readability: the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level, ranging from 1 (very easy) to 12+ (very difficult)
- Reading time: How long it would take an average reader to read the entire text
- Grammar: A count of spelling mistakes present in the text
Next, the Top Sources widget breaks down the top five sources of potential plagiarism, in order of similarity.
On the left, the Similarity column shows you the percentage of matching text found in the source. On the right, you’ll find the title and URL of the potentially plagiarized content. Clicking on one of these links will open it in a new tab.
Finally, the Plagiarism Report widget shows you the matching text for each potential source of plagiarism.
On the left, the report displays the matching text. On the right, you’ll find the title and URL where it may have been copied from.
Click the URL to read the source article in its entirety and compare for yourself.
