HOW IT WORKS

From upload to report in three steps

No setup, no plug‑ins. Upload a document, let TXT Audit run its checks, and read a report built for a quick decision.

The three passes

  • 01

    Upload your document

    Paste text directly, or upload a .docx, .pdf, or .txt file. Free accounts get 3 checks a month; Premium gets 49.

  • 02

    Automated multi‑layer scan

    Your text is fingerprinted against web and academic sources, compared for semantic similarity, and modeled for AI‑generated writing patterns.

  • 03

    Read your report

    Get an originality score, an AI‑likelihood meter, and every flagged passage linked back to its source — all on one page.

Most documents finish scanning in under a minute. Longer files (30+ pages) may take a little more.
STEP 02, IN DETAIL

What the scan is actually doing

Three independent checks run over your document at once, and each flagged passage is tagged with why it was flagged.

The methodology follows a fairly standard approach, though the framing of the second hypothesis closely echoes prior published work on the same subject.

This section shows structural patterns consistent with AI‑assisted drafting, particularly in sentence rhythm and repeated transitional phrasing.

Fingerprint match Running web + academic index
Semantic similarity Queued paraphrase detection
AI pattern model Running sentence‑level scoring

Report and final score are generated once all three passes complete.

STEP 03, IN DETAIL

A report built to decide fast

Everything lands on one page: your score, the sources behind it, and the exact text that triggered each flag.

01

Originality score

A single 0–100 number combining fingerprint and semantic matches.

02

AI likelihood meter

A separate percentage showing confidence that a passage was AI‑written.

03

Matched sources

Every flagged passage links to the source it matched, with a similarity percentage.

“Adoption curves tend to flatten once network effects reach a critical mass, consistent with prior findings.”
