    General AI Detection

    What does GPTZeroAI check?

    GPTZeroAI reviews writing for AI-generated text signals, including document-level risk, passage-level evidence, and patterns that may appear in ChatGPT, GPT-5-style, Claude, Gemini, or mixed human-AI drafts.

    Can an AI detector prove who wrote a document?

    No. AI detection should be treated as review evidence, not final proof of authorship or misconduct. High-stakes decisions should also consider drafts, writing history, citations, policy, and human judgment.

    Which AI models can GPTZeroAI review?

    GPTZeroAI is positioned for current language-model writing patterns, including ChatGPT, GPT-5-style output, Claude, Gemini, and mixed AI-assisted drafts. Model-specific review pages explain how to interpret those signals responsibly.

    Accuracy and False Positives

    How accurate is GPTZeroAI?

    Accuracy depends on document length, language, editing history, topic, and whether the text is fully AI-generated or mixed with human revision. GPTZeroAI emphasizes confidence, explainability, and review workflow rather than treating a single percentage as a verdict.

    What is a false positive in AI detection?

    A false positive happens when human writing is flagged as AI-like. This can occur with short samples, formulaic assignments, polished templates, non-native writing, or highly edited text. Reviewers should inspect passages before making decisions.

    What should I do with a mixed result?

    A mixed result means some passages may carry stronger AI-writing signals than others. Review highlighted sections, compare them with drafts or sources, and decide whether revision, disclosure, or a human follow-up is appropriate.

    Privacy, Schools, and Teams

    Is pasted text used for model training?

    GPTZeroAI is built around privacy-aware review workflows. Teams should configure retention and access controls based on their policy, and sensitive review processes should avoid unnecessary long-term storage of submitted text.

    How should teachers use AI detection?

    Teachers should define AI-use rules before assignments, use detector results to identify passages for review, compare drafts and citations, ask for student context when needed, and document the final decision.

    Can teams use GPTZeroAI through an API?

    Yes. API workflows can route high-risk or low-confidence documents to review, keep audit records, and integrate AI detection into publishing, education, compliance, or content operations.
