AI Text Detector: guide & how to use
Estimate whether prose looks AI-generated using local statistics—no uploads, no AI API.
Paste text and get a heuristic score based on sentence-length variance, vocabulary diversity, common AI phrases, burstiness, paragraph uniformity, and hedging language. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is sent to a server. Results are indicative only and can misclassify edited AI text or unusually uniform human writing. This guide is part of our guides library in the Text & writing category—Word counts, case styles, lorem ipsum, citations, similarity highlights, and diffs for drafts and homework.

Common questions
- Does this use artificial intelligence?
- No. Scoring uses math and phrase lists in your browser. There is no LLM call and no data leaves your device.
- How accurate is it?
- It catches common AI writing patterns but is not foolproof. Short samples, edited machine text, or very polished human prose can skew results.
- Can I use this for academic or legal decisions?
- No. Treat output as a rough indicator only. Institutions use dedicated tools and human review for serious cases.
