Get LivingWriterIt's freeWhy choose LivingWriter’s AI Detector
When you scan here, you get more than a single percentage—here’s what we focus on.
Designed for careful checks
Pattern-based analysis highlights where prose reads like common AI output—so you can revise with context, not guesswork.
Results in seconds
Paste or upload, run a scan, and review an overall score plus sentence-level cues without waiting on queues.
Updated as models evolve
We refine prompts and signals over time as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other tools change how people draft.
Pairs with rewriting
Use our Humanizer and Paraphrasing tools when you want to tighten voice after you see what the detector flagged.
Works alongside your stack
Start here for a quick check—then move into LivingWriter for long manuscripts, outlines, and structured drafting.
Built to limit false alarms
No detector is perfect; we focus on clear scores and explanations so human polish and formal tone aren’t mystery verdicts.
An AI detector for every kind of writing
From coursework to publishing workflows—quick checks before you hit send or submit.
Research papers
Review drafts before submission so tone and sourcing match what your instructor expects.
Reports & proposals
Spot stiff or generic passages before clients or leadership read them.
Articles & blog posts
Keep voice consistent with what readers expect from your byline.
School assignments
If AI helped you brainstorm, see where it may still shape sentences so you can revise in your own words.
Trusted checks from a team obsessed with storytelling
LivingWriter grew out of novelists’ needs: long arcs, many drafts, and zero patience for tools that forget context. This detector is a front door—fast, clear, private—while the full app keeps beats, characters, and research in one place.
Use it alongside discipline: combine automated signals with your judgment, institutional policies, and the paraphrasing or humanizing tools when you want another pass.
