We don't just use AI.
We hold your text up against the whole live web.

The AI picks the passages worth investigating. Then we search them verbatim on Google — the web as it is today, not a database from last year. Essays, articles, manuscripts, reports.

Why plagcheck

AI on its own isn't enough.

Most "AI plagiarism checkers" are exactly that — only AI. They can suggest something resembles something else, but they never go and look for it, so they cannot point to the source. We can.

Pure AI detection

  • Suggests a text "might be plagiarised" without being able to prove it
  • No reference to the original source
  • High false-positive rate, hitting innocent texts
  • Rarely catches translated or reworded passages
plagcheck.ai

AI + Google's whole index

  • Points to the exact source: author, title, page number
  • Match score based on actual comparison, not guesswork
  • The AI catches rewrites and translations, the search confirms them
  • Suggested citations instead of a red line

Features

Three things that make the difference

From where we search to a report you can act on.

The whole live web

We do not search a database we built ourselves. We search Google’s index — the largest and freshest there is, updated while you read. A copy posted online yesterday is in there.

Fresh today, not last year

AI that understands context

Our model catches rewrites, translations and AI-generated content, not just word-for-word matches. It knows the difference between a quotation and a copy.

Fewer false positives, fewer loopholes

Reports you can act on

Detailed reports with suggested citations and concrete source references — not just a red line, but a way forward. Ready to act on.

Insight, not guesswork

Built in the EU

Built for your language, not translated from one

Multilingual model
Our AI analyses each document in its own language rather than translating it into English first.
Your language is covered
Whatever Google has indexed in your language — essay banks, blogs, news media, public documents — is part of the search on equal terms.
Your document is not stored
Our server is in the EU and the document is never written to disk. During the analysis, excerpts are sent to sub-processors in the US — set out precisely in the privacy policy.
European support
A European team in your timezone. Not a ticket system eight hours behind you.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What are you actually searching?

We search Google's index verbatim through a search API. That covers the open web as it stands right now: essay banks, blogs, news media, public documents and everything else Google has indexed. We do not have our own database, and we do not claim to. What we will not find: closed archives behind a login, printed books that were never digitised, and other students' unpublished work. If you come via opgaver.com, their own archive is searched as well.

Do you also catch text generated by ChatGPT and other AI models?

Yes. Our model is trained to recognise statistical patterns typical of LLM-generated text, and we cross-reference against known AI output. We are transparent that these are probability assessments, not proof. That's why we deliver context, not verdicts.

What kinds of documents does plagcheck work for?

Every kind of text document. Academic essays, dissertations and reports, journalism and features before publication, book manuscripts and chapters, marketing copy and posts, legal documents, and ordinary reports and memos. Word, PDF, Google Docs, LaTeX and plain text.

What about false positives?

Because we actually go and search for the text, we can always point to the specific page it sits on, rather than saying "this might resemble something". You get a link, not a suspicion. Our report is built to give you grounds to act — not to trigger an automatic verdict.

What about GDPR and privacy?

Our server is in the EU (Frankfurt), and your document is never stored — it exists only in memory while the analysis runs. But the analysis cannot be done without outside help: an excerpt goes to OpenAI (USA) to select passages and write the report, and the selected sentences are looked up on Google via Serper (USA). We do not train models on your texts, and OpenAI states it does not use API data for training. We are ready to sign a data processing agreement. Every detail is in the privacy policy.
