AI Writing Self-Check — Free Online Tool

The AI Writing Self-Check reads your own draft and points out passages that read as generic, template-like, or machine-written, returning an assessment rather than a verdict. It does not search the web or compare your text against other sources, so it cannot tell you whether something was copied.

It is important to be honest about reliability, because a great deal of harm has been done by treating these tools as authoritative. AI-detection classifiers work by measuring statistical properties of text — how predictable each word is given the ones before it — and human writing that happens to be clear, formulaic, or plainly structured scores as machine-generated with uncomfortable frequency. The documented bias against non-native English writers is particularly well-established, since writing in a second language tends toward more conventional phrasing, exactly the signal these classifiers read as artificial. OpenAI withdrew its own detector in 2023 citing low accuracy, and no detector since has solved the underlying problem.

The practical consequence: a high score is a reason to look more closely, never evidence on its own. Accusing a student or a writer of misconduct on the basis of a detector score is unsafe, and institutions that have done so have had to reverse those findings. Process evidence — draft history, version control, the ability to discuss the work — is far more reliable than any classifier output.

Where the tool is genuinely useful is self-checking: reviewing your own draft before you publish or send it, and seeing which sections read as mechanical and could use a human pass.

Your text is sent to a model for analysis and is not retained.
