Question 1

Is this a real plagiarism checker or an estimate?

Accepted Answer

Real. Your document is processed through genuine detection engines — Turnitin, Drillbit, or iThenticate, your choice — and you receive the engine's own report as a PDF, not a lookalike score.

Question 2

Who is it for?

Accepted Answer

Students polishing an essay or thesis, researchers preparing a manuscript for a journal, and writers or editors verifying the originality of their own work before publishing. You upload your own writing and check it yourself.

Question 3

Can I use this to make AI-written or copied text undetectable?

Accepted Answer

No. TurnDetect only reports what the engine finds. We don't write, rewrite, paraphrase, or "humanize" text, and using a report to pass off AI-generated or copied work as your own is against our Terms. Use it to find what needs a citation or a rewrite in your own words.

Question 4

What happens to my document?

Accepted Answer

It's processed only to generate your report. The source file is deleted from our systems once the report is ready, it's never used for training, and it's never published or shared.

Question 5

How fast is it and what does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Most reports are ready within minutes. You pay per report with no subscription — a single credit or a discounted pack. See the pricing page for current rates per engine.
