AI-Detection that works: Based on the academic discipline ‘digital forensics’, there are clear indicators for a human-written text versus a copied or copy-typed text. You can review this in our dynamic in-text report.
At Mentafy, we don’t just identify suspicious writing patterns, we also categorize them to provide clearer context.
Some patterns, like large blocks of citations, may indicate copy-pasting, but are entirely acceptable when properly attributed. Similarly, AI-generated text isn’t inherently problematic if the author includes a citation and relevant chat history that demonstrates meaningful human input. Another common pattern is AI-revised text, where we detect that a human-authored draft—with core ideas already in place—was significantly edited using AI. Transparency and proper attribution are key to distinguishing acceptable use from misconduct.
