What it does

GPTZero is an AI tool for checking for plagiarism and checking grammar and spelling. It has a free plan.

GPTZero is a web and browser-extension tool that estimates whether text was written by a person or generated by an AI model. It examines writing samples, highlights passages it considers likely AI-written, and reports the result for the document as a whole. It also offers a plagiarism checker, grammar feedback, and a writing tutor for feedback. Teachers and students are a major audience, along with publishers, recruiters, and legal teams that review writing. In Google Docs, the extension can track a document's writing history; elsewhere, users can turn on Writing Replay to record sessions. Reports include typing patterns, pastes, edits, and a replay of how the text was produced. Users can ask questions about that history to see where AI assistance may have entered. Access starts with a free account. Paid team plans add shared credits, centralized billing, and seat management, and are sold by card; larger organizations can contact sales. Developers can integrate detection through an API. GPTZero states that no detector is perfect and that results should inform review rather than serve as a final judgment.
