AI Content Detector
Paste a URL or text and find out if it was written by a human or by AI. Ten metrics, instant results, runs in your browser.
Was this written by ChatGPT? Paste any text or URL and get an honest answer. The detector checks ten different statistical patterns that AI text tends to exhibit: how closely word frequencies follow Zipf's law, how uniform the punctuation spacing is, whether sentences all start the same way, and more. It also looks at eighteen signals per sentence, things like dash overuse, transition word density, and formulaic structure. Everything runs in your browser; your text stays on your device.
How to use it
Grab the text
Either paste a URL and the tool fetches the page content automatically, or switch to text mode and paste the text yourself.
Hit detect
One click. The analysis runs instantly in your browser across ten document metrics and eighteen per-sentence signals.
Read the breakdown
You get AI vs Human percentages, a color-coded verdict, and ten detailed metric cards showing exactly why the text scored the way it did.

Real-world tests
Checking an SEO blog post
Someone sent me a coffee brewing guide from a small brand's blog. It looked too polished.
I pasted the URL into the detector.
Zipf conformity came back at 0.97 (very high), repeated starters at 65%, and the punctuation was almost robotically even.
The verdict: AI 72%, Human 12%. Every paragraph followed the exact same pros-cons-recommendation structure.
Classic AI-generated SEO content. The brand name was shoehorned into every section, and there wasn't a single personal opinion in the whole thing.
Verifying a student essay
A teacher friend asked me to check an essay that 'felt off' but she couldn't put her finger on why.
She pasted the text in the Text tab.
The essay scored AI 28%, Human 45%. Not terrible, but the sentence starters were suspiciously uniform.
Looking at the metrics, burstiness was fine (0.65) but Zipf conformity was 0.95, higher than typical student writing.
Probably human-written with some AI-assisted editing. The core ideas seemed original but the polish felt machine-applied.
Who uses this?
Teachers checking homework
“Paste a student essay, see if the sentence patterns match what AI typically produces. The detector looks at things students can't easily fake: sentence length distribution, word frequency curves, and punctuation patterns.”
Content teams auditing blogs
“If you manage a blog with multiple writers or freelancers, run their drafts through the detector before publishing. It takes two seconds and can save you from publishing something that Google might flag as AI content.”
Editors reviewing submissions
“Got a guest post or a press release that reads a bit too smoothly? Paste it in and check the Zipf conformity and repeated starters metrics. Those two alone catch most mass-produced AI content.”
Frequently Asked Questions
?How accurate is this thing?
Honestly, it depends on the text. On blog posts and articles over 300 words, it does a solid job. On short texts or very technical writing, take the results with a grain of salt. No detector, ours included, gets it right 100% of the time.
?What does it actually measure?
Ten things at the document level: Zipf's law conformity, repeated starters, punctuation spacing patterns, sentence length distribution shape, hapax ratio, paragraph uniformity, perplexity, burstiness, vocabulary richness, and word length variation. On top of that, eighteen per-sentence checks looking at dashes, transition words, formulaic structure, and other patterns.
?What's Zipf's Law and why does it matter?
Zipf's law is a pattern in language: the most common word appears roughly twice as often as the second most common, three times more than the third, and so on. AI text follows this curve almost perfectly because it samples from probability distributions. Human writing is messier; we get stuck on words, go on tangents, repeat things we probably shouldn't.
?Why doesn't the URL mode work on some sites?
Some websites load their content with JavaScript after the page loads (client-side rendering). Our fetcher grabs the initial HTML, so if the text isn't in there, we can't see it. For those sites, just copy the text and paste it in the Text tab.
?Does my text get sent anywhere?
Nope. Everything runs in your browser. The text you paste never leaves your device. If you use URL mode, the fetch happens from your browser too (or through a lightweight proxy if CORS blocks it, but the analysis still happens locally).
?Is it really free?
Yes. Free, no account needed, no limits on how many texts you scan. There's no premium tier or hidden upsell. The URL proxy has a rate limit of 5 requests per minute, but the text mode has no limits at all.
?How long does the text need to be?
At minimum 30 words and 3 sentences, but you'll get much better results with 300+ words. The statistical patterns need enough data to be meaningful; a two-sentence paragraph doesn't give the algorithm much to work with.
?What if someone used AI but then edited it heavily?
That's the hardest case for any detector. If a human rewrites a third of the sentences, adds personal anecdotes, and removes the obvious AI patterns, detection gets unreliable. The mixed percentage in the results often points to this kind of hybrid content.
