Copyleaks offers another feature called Codeleaks that effortlessly finds out if an AI made any part of your source code. It uses some smart AI detection methods to spot anything that a human might not have written.

How to Use Copyleaks to Detect AI & Plagiarism

Here's how I used Copyleaks to detect AI and plagiarism in text that I uploaded:

  1. Create a Copyleaks Account
  2. Go to New Scan
  3. Upload Content
  4. Choose Your Settings
  5. Scan Text
  6. Analyze Results

Step 1: Create a Copyleaks Account

Selecting "Try it Now" on the Copyleaks homepage.

I started by visiting the Copyleaks homepage and selecting “Try it Now.”

Step 2: Go to New Scan

Selecting "New Scan" in my Copyleaks account.

After creating a Copyleaks account, I went to “New Scan” on the top left.

Step 3: Upload Content

Types of files to upload to Copyleaks.

On this page, I could easily drag and drop the following types of files for Copyleaks to detect AI:

  • Text
  • Files
  • Code files
  • URL
  • OCR (extract text from images)
  • Compare (text, files, and URLs against each other)

I selected “Text,” but choose the one compatible with your file type.

Step 4: Choose Your Settings

Before uploading my text into Copyleaks, I ensured my settings were correct.

Emphasizing the AI Content Detection and Plagiarism Detection toggles in the settings for scanning text.

On the left were two toggles for “AI Content Detection” and “AI Plagiarism Detection.” These toggles are where I could decide whether I wanted Copyleaks to check for AI, plagiarism, or both. I kept both toggles on and recommend you do the same for the most insights, but feel free to toggle these switches on or off to suit your needs!

Emphasizing "Online Sources" in the settings for scanning text.

I noticed another toggle below these two: “Online Sources.” If you're checking for plagiarism, I recommend keeping this on. This Compares the text with online sources and will give you the most thorough analysis.

Emphasizing the "Omit Settings" checklist in the settings for scanning text.

Above the toggles were a list of four items I could omit from being checked for plagiarism:

  • References
  • Quotes
  • Citations
  • Table of Contents

I left these unchecked, but feel free to check them if you know the text will have these items and you want to avoid checking them for plagiarism.

Emphasizing the "Internal Database" toggle in the settings for scanning text.

The final toggle was called “Internal Database.” Turning this on allowed me to compare my documents for plagiarism with a vast number of user-submitted documents, providing added assurance. I kept this turned off, but feel free to turn it on for more accuracy.

Emphasizing "Scan Frequency" and "Scan Destination" in the settings for scanning text.

At the bottom was an option for “Scan Frequency.” The Scan Frequency option allowed me to schedule automated recurring plagiarism and AI content scans. I didn't need this, so I kept it on “Never.” Next to this was “Scan Destination,” where I could choose a folder to store my scans.

Step 5: Scan Text

Now that I had all my settings in place, I was ready for text scanning!

Pasting text into the Copyleaks scanner and selected "Scan" on the bottom right.

I wanted to generate content that was 100% AI-generated and see if Copyleaks could detect it. I generated some text using ChatGPT on “George Washington's Life & Legacy” and pasted it into the text field for Copyleaks to scan. I hit the “Scan” button on the bottom right.

Step 6: Analyze Results

A few seconds later, Copyleaks presented me with my results!

Checking how much of the text is plagiarized under the Matched Text tab using Copyleaks.

The first tab, called “Matched Text,” gave me an overview of the plagiarized and original content. It told me that the AI content I pasted was:

  • 7.4% Identical
  • 2% had Minor Changes
  • 25% was Paraphrased
  • 65.6% was Original

Generally speaking, 15-20% of plagiarism is acceptable in university. You'll want to keep plagiarism under 15%.

ChatGPT kept completely plagiarized content under 15% (the stats say 7.4% was detected as identical). However, 34.4% of the text corresponded to some form of preexisting content, whether it was the same, had slight alterations, or was paraphrased, which isn't the best.

Overall, I'd say that when it came to plagiarizing content, ChatGPT did a decent job primarily generating original text.

Copyleaks AI detector showing all of the text is AI generated.

When it came to detecting AI Content, ChatGPT failed. The tab on the right next to “Matched Text” showed all of the text I'd pasted, highlighted in purple, meaning Copyleaks successfully detected this content as entirely generated with AI. There's no getting past Copyleaks with AI-generated content!
