  • Ai Detection
  • What’s next for Skyline Academic AI detection?

    We’re constantly improving our detection system — expanding to more languages, supporting more file formats, and refining our accuracy as new AI models are released.

    Who uses Skyline Academic’s AI detection?

    Students, researchers, universities, and businesses use our tool to ensure originality, meet academic standards, and avoid unintentional AI misuse

    Does AI detection flag everything written with AI??

    Not necessarily. If AI text is heavily edited or rewritten, it may look more human. Our detection still highlights sections that show strong AI patterns so you can decide how to proceed.

    Can your detector catch spun text or text with deliberate typos?

    Yes. Even if AI-generated text is manipulated with synonyms or spelling tricks, our tool can often still recognize the underlying patterns.

    Will tools like Grammarly or spell-check be flagged as AI?

    No. Tools that simply correct grammar or spelling won’t be marked as AI-generated. Our system is designed to distinguish between writing assistants and AI content creators.

    Can your tool check AI-generated text hidden in images or other formats?

     

    Currently, we support text files, Word, and PDFs. Scanning AI within images, video subtitles, or handwriting is in development.

    Can Skyline Academic detect AI-written code or scripts?

    Yes. We can analyze source code to determine if it appears human-written or generated by AI coding assistants.

    What if my human-written text gets flagged as AI?

    Rarely, genuine writing may be flagged. This usually happens with overly formal, repetitive, or uniform text styles. You can revise flagged areas, diversify sentence structures, and add personal examples to strengthen originality.

    Will Skyline Academic detect future AI models?

    Yes. Our system is built to be model-agnostic. Instead of chasing one tool at a time, we focus on underlying generative writing patterns. This means we’ll continue adapting to new AI systems as they appear.

    Why is there a word limit for AI detection scans?

    Our detector requires a minimum length to analyze text patterns effectively, and extremely long texts can lower confidence. Word count limits help us maintain accurate results.

    Is my data safe when using AI detection?

    Absolutely. Your documents remain private and secure. We comply with GDPR and follow strict data protection standards. You can also request permanent deletion of your files at any time.

    What is the difference between similarity scores and AI detection scores?

    Similarity Score → shows how much of your text matches published sources or other papers.

    AI Detection Score → shows how much of your text was likely generated by AI.

     They are separate but complementary measures.

    Does AI detection change the plagiarism report?

    No. Your plagiarism report still works the same way. AI detection simply adds another layer of insight so you can see originality and AI probability side by side.

    Can you tell if a document mixes human writing and AI-generated sections?

    Yes. Many students use AI only for parts of their assignments. Our tool can identify hybrid documents, showing which parts appear human-written and which parts likely came from AI.

    What will my report look like if AI text is found?

    If AI-generated sections are detected, your report will show:

    A percentage of text likely created by AI

    Highlighted sections for review

    Suggestions on which parts may need rewriting

    How do you prevent false positives?

    We’ve designed our detection system to keep false flags to a minimum. Less than 2% of human-written text is mistakenly identified as AI. Our priority is precision, so genuine work isn’t unfairly marked.

    Can Skyline Academic detect AI writing in different languages?

    Yes. We currently support AI detection in more than 30 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Russian, Japanese, and Portuguese. Accuracy may vary slightly between languages, but detection remains highly reliable.

    Which AI platforms can Skyline Academic detect?

    Our detector can identify text created by popular AI models such as ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Jasper, and other leading writing tools. For English, our detection accuracy is consistently above 98%.

    How was your AI detection tool developed?

    We trained our model on massive collections of both human-written and AI-generated text from academic papers, online sources, and research datasets. This long-term training allows the system to recognize even small differences between authentic student writing and AI output.

    How does Skyline Academic know if text was written by AI?

    Our system analyzes writing style, sentence rhythm, vocabulary choices, and statistical markers that typically differ between humans and AI. By examining these subtle signals, we can highlight sections that are likely machine-generated.

  • Plagiarism Detection
  • Does Skyline Academic save or share my work?

    No. By default, your documents remain private and are deleted after scanning. If you choose, you can opt to save files in a secure institutional repository for future comparisons.

     

    Can I exclude references or templates from plagiarism checks?

    Yes. You can filter out bibliographies, citations, and templates so they aren’t flagged as plagiarism, making your report more accurate and fair.

    How much does it cost?

    We offer pay-per-document scanning and student-friendly packages for multiple assignments. Pricing depends on the document length.

    What are omitted words and how do they affect my report?

    Omitted words are the sections you chose not to include (quotes, references, etc.). These aren’t counted in the numerator or denominator for matched text calculations, so they don’t skew your similarity score.

    How do I understand my similarity report in Skyline Academic?

    Your report gives an overall similarity percentage and divides matched text into: Exact Matches, Small Edits, and Paraphrased passages. You can use filters to show only those levels you care about (for example, hide small edits or only show paraphrased content).

    What kinds of similarity does Skyline Academic detect in text?

    We check for three main levels of similarity: Exact Matches (word-for-word), Small Edits (minor rewording or spelling differences), and Paraphrased Content (ideas preserved but with new wording). We also show any portions of your text you chose to omit from scanning (e.g. quotes, bibliography) based on your settings.

    How much does plagiarism and AI detection cost?

    Pricing depends on document length. We offer flexible student-friendly packages, from single checks to bulk packages for multiple assignments.

    How long does it take to get a report?

    Most reports are generated within minutes. For larger files (like dissertations), it may take slightly longer, but you’ll still get results quickly.

    How do I understand my similarity percentage?

    The similarity percentage shows how much of your text overlaps with existing sources. Matches are grouped into categories:

    Identical – exact copies

     

    Minor Changes – lightly edited text

     

    Paraphrased – same meaning, different words

     

    This helps you know what needs citation or rewriting.

    Can I customize how plagiarism results appear?

    Yes. You can adjust filters in your report to exclude references, citations, or templates. This ensures only meaningful overlaps are flagged as plagiarism.

    Are there any limitations to plagiarism detection?

    While our system is highly accurate, limitations include:

    Rare cases in less-common languages

     

    Handwritten or image-based text without OCR conversion

     

    Extremely short or overly long submissions affecting accuracy

    Can Skyline Academic catch content that has been reworded to hide plagiarism?

    Yes. Our system goes beyond word-for-word matches, detecting paraphrased plagiarism and spun content designed to avoid detection.

    How often is the plagiarism database updated?

    Our database is constantly updated, ensuring your work is checked against the latest online sources, journals, and previously submitted student assignments.

    Is my work secure when using Skyline Academic?

    Yes. We prioritize data privacy and security. Your documents are not shared or reused, and they can be permanently deleted upon request. We comply with GDPR and international data standards.

    How are plagiarism results reported?

    Results are displayed in a Similarity Report showing:

    Overall similarity percentage

     

    Color-coded categories (Identical, Minor Changes, Paraphrased)

     

    Highlighted sections with matching sources
    You can also download a PDF report for record-keeping or submission.

    What sources does Skyline Academic check against?

    Your work is compared with:

    Billions of web pages and online sources

     

    Academic journals and research publications

     

    Student papers stored in secure databases

     

    This ensures a comprehensive plagiarism scan beyond just Google results.

    What types of files can I upload for a plagiarism check?

    We support common academic file types: Word (.doc/.docx), PDF, PowerPoint, plain text, and code files. Essays, dissertations, reports, and programming assignments can all be scanned.

    Can Skyline Academic detect code plagiarism?

    Yes. Our tool can scan source code and identify both exact matches and modified code, making it valuable for computer science, engineering, and IT students.

    Which languages are supported for plagiarism detection?

    Skyline Academic checks documents in 100+ languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, Russian, and more. This makes it effective for international students and multilingual research.

    What kinds of plagiarism can Skyline Academic detect?

    We can detect:

    Direct Copying – word-for-word matches

     

    Paraphrased Text – ideas rewritten without proper credit

     

    Spun Content – text modified with synonyms or slight changes

     

    Code Plagiarism – copied or slightly altered source code

     

    Image-to-Text Plagiarism – scanned or image-based text comparisons

    How accurate is Skyline Academic in detecting plagiarism?

    Our plagiarism detection system is highly accurate, capable of spotting both direct copying and more subtle issues like paraphrased text. While no tool is 100% perfect, Skyline Academic consistently delivers the level of precision trusted by universities and professional institutions.

    What is Skyline Academic’s plagiarism detection tool and how does it work?
