What is AI Detection?
Writableās AI Detection (powered by Turnitin) helps teachers determine whether a studentās writing was generated or assisted by AI.

To best assess writing authenticity, we recommend using Authorship Scores and Draft History with the AI Detection report to determine the likelihood of whether a student used AI to write a submission.
Accessing the Report
Knowing whether a submission was written by students or generated by AI is important for ensuring academic integrity. Our AI detector is trained to recognize human writing patterns and flags text as potential AI when it detects deviations from these patterns.

A green icon indicates that no AI writing was detected or that there wasn't enough writing. Hover over the icon to see which of these situations applies. Green icons will not open as a report as no AI writing was detected.
A blue document icon indicates that suspected AI-generated content was detected. Click the icon for a detailed breakdown of the AI detection results.
ā Note: AI detection is only available after a student has written at least 300 words, when the Similarity Report is generated.
In the report, you'll see the percentage of writing that has been identified as suspected AI- generated writing. Click any highlighted portion to view detailed AI detection information for that section of text.
